Roof construction is carried out by assembling the roof frame structure and connecting the roof tiles.
Angle rafters are the first parts to be hung during roof construction, and are placed 45 degrees from the corner of the roof.
The rafters are parts that cross over the purlin to create a sloped roof surface. The eaves made with one rafters are called single eaves, and the large roof with double rafters are called double eaves. The curve of the roof is determined by determining the curve and length of angle rafters → by determining the curve and length of rafters → by fixing rafters and laths on rafters → by hanging rafter extension → and by finishing the joint part.
In the hipped-and-gabled roof, angle rafters are placed in order at the four corners. After the rafters are attached, the rafter extensions are hung to finish.
The roof tile joining begins after the frame of the roof is formed. Cover with soil after weaving lattice sticks across roof rafters, and lay the roof filling wood and roof filling soil. After that, lay the concave roofing tiles and fill with hongdukkae clay and then lay the convex roofing tiles and finish by stacking the ridge roof tiles.
Pieces of wood are woven together so that the roof tiles can be connected over the rafters.
Roof filling wood refers to a piece of wood or bark that gets filled in on top of the attic sticks across roof rafters. The reason for filling with roof filling wood instead of soil is to reduce the weight of the roof, prevent corrosion of rafters, and increase the insulation effect.
The corner part of the roof that touches the sky is called a ridge. From the highest point, the ridges are divided into ridge of a roof, lowered ridge, and angle rafter ridge. The ridge roof tiles are roof tiles placed on the ridges.
Roof filling soil is soil laid over the roof filling wood or lattice sticks across roof rafters for insulation and to even out the roof curves.
Concave roof tiles are bent back and convex roof tiles are the opposite and they connect the concave roof tiles by covering over the space. Hongdukkae clay is used to fix the convex roof tiles.
