Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0899395A2] The roof construction has several flat wood veneers (7,9,11,13) which are adhesively bonded together, such that the grain directions of adjacent layers are at right angles to one another. A sealing panel (15) is located at least above the structural component and has a slot arrangement (17) above and at the sides of the component, but at a smaller angle of inclination that the roof panel.
