What it is
Gable roofs shed rain quickly and give a classic house shape. In Chennai, they are used for style, over terraces or with clay tiles, on an RCC or steel frame.
Key points
- Two slopes and a ridge
- Triangular gable walls at the ends
- Sheds rain well
- Needs good fixing against cyclone winds
Why it matters
Chennai sees cyclones, so sloped roofs must be anchored firmly.
