Roof project

For the roof project we had a Kleenex box and we had to choose a difficult and also simple type of roof and attach and build a roof on top of the box and show all the parts on the roof like insulation, roof studs, and all that. Below is a picture of me and Matt`s roof project.

Advantages:

• Compared to a hipped roof, or a shed roof, gabled roofs give more room in the top.
• The Gable Roof is really affordable and has minor problems.

Disadvantages:

• Gabled roofs are bad in hurricanes, because the wind often will catch the end of the roof.
• They don’t protect the walls on the ends of the roof as well as hipped roofs do.

Geographical Area:

• Gabled roofs are most commonly used in Europe and the U.S.

Reflection:

1.) What i learned is how roofs are constructed with different layers and what  engineers go through to make sure roofs are perfect for protection.

2.)What i liked was getting to work with glue guns and actually construct something and do hands on work.

3.)What i disliked was when the hot glue from the gun touched your finger it hurt!

4.) And i wouldn't do anything differently the project was fun and perfect i liked it.
