In a rectangle floor plan the roof areas of a monopitch roof on the three gable ends front edge consist of one gable area and of hipped end roof area on one on the two eave sides.

The simplest form of space frame is a horizontal slab of interlocking square pyramids and tetrahedra built from aluminium or tubular steel struts.

Space frames are lightweight rigid roofing systems consisting of a series of connectors that join together the chords or struts and bracing members.
When you are building a patio cover off of an existing roof or wall you must take all of your measurements from the point at which the patio roof will attach to the existing structure not the outside of the slab.
A stronger form is composed of interlocking tetrahedra in which all the struts have unit length.
Patio cover plans building.
Typically the roof pitch of monopitch roofs is low.
Their strength derives from the rigidity of the triangle with the flexing loads being transmitted as tension and compression loads along the length of each chord.
For a truss the lines must exactly meet at common points joints.
Here we have a wood framed gable roof.
The lines of the space frame models can meet at common points and or terminate as an intersection of two lines.
The image below shows a cross section of our simple 12 x 13 house from the joist span tables section of this tutorial.
In many ways this looks like the horizontal jib of a tower crane repeated many times to make it wider.
The a frame is very easy to identify.
The bonnet roof is identified with the extending ledge around the base of the roof.
The existing slab can vary considerably throwing off crucial measurements.

American owned and operated we manufacture steel space frames using certified united states sourced materials in multiple system design formats.
It may consist of a flat roof on top but the main design element is the multi pitch sloped in what is essentially a hip roof on top of another hip frame.

The inclined roof area is always aimed towards the weather exposed side.
