have regard to the local climate, the roof looks desired, the available budget and
the ingredients can easily be obtained in which the building is erected

Inevitably, the roof has an important role as the structural integrity of the
building. See progress in recent years. Seen from the shapes and colors that follow
the style or theme of the building.

The use of technology also can not be ruled out. In addition to getting top
quality products, the use of technology penetrated on environmentally friendly
products. Since the issue of global warming came to the surface, the use of
environmentally friendly building materials is trending around the world.
Manufacturers do not want to miss the roof and competing to offer
environmentally friendly roofing products. There are several choices of roof
covering quality and cheap. Call it like tiles. Type of tile were diverse views on
price, quality and design. The only difference being the type of ingredients alone.

Director of PT Onduline Indonesia, Budi benefactor, consumers are already aware
of the roofing products.

"Consumers already understand roofing products in addition to its main


function, namely beautify the structure of the building" he said. In the market, as
well as property, building materials also have a clear product segmentation. The
term KW 1, KW 2 and so on. Similarly, the roof covering. For use in building the
middle class, zinc roofing materials, asbestos and traditional enough. As for the
segment of it, like a house with a price range above 500 million already using a
roof-based. For now the market is still dominated by a large selection of ceramic
tile and concrete tile. While the trend setter tile is still held flat and semi-flat. This
option is in line with the development theme of minimalist modern home and

certain shape of the roof.

connected with a column structure for mengalirakan load to the ground.

Generally known four types of roof structures, namely: a wall structure (gin-
gin) wood frame, horses and wooden frames, conventional steel structure, light
steel structure. Beyond that there are no concrete structures commonly used for
flat roofs.

Roofing components that have the smallest profile in shape and size.
Transverse position above the rafters. Reng serves as a barrier roofing (tile, etc.).
Another function is as a regulator of the distance of each tile so neat and more
"tied". The distance between the battens depends on the size of the tile that will be
used. The larger the dimensions of the tile, the less battens so the cost was more
efficient.
