Saw-tooth roof

Home / Glossary

A saw-tooth roof is a type of roof design that features a series of parallel, sloping surfaces that are arranged in a zigzag pattern along the length of the roof. The design is named for its resemblance to the teeth of a saw.

The saw-tooth roof design is often used in industrial or commercial buildings, particularly those that require large amounts of natural light, such as factories, warehouses, or retail spaces. The design allows for a row of vertical windows or skylights to be installed along the slope of each roof plane, providing abundant natural light to the interior space.

The saw-tooth roof design can be customized to suit the specific needs of the building and its location, and can be used to create a range of different architectural styles and appearances. The design can be modified to increase or decrease the amount of natural light entering the building, and can be used in combination with other roof designs to create a unique and functional building envelope.

Saw-tooth roofs can be constructed using a variety of roofing materials, including metal panels, membrane roofing, or other materials. The design and pitch of the roof can be customized to suit the specific needs of the building and its location, and can be used to create a range of different architectural styles and appearances.

Overall, the saw-tooth roof is a distinctive and practical roof design that can provide both functional and aesthetic benefits. Its unique shape and arrangement of roof planes can create a unique and attractive roofline, while also providing abundant natural light to the interior space.
