Is it better to build a house in rural areas with cast-in-place roofs or tiles?

Since it is a rural building, it should be considered in combination with the actual situation in rural areas. Rural people often find a suitable place to dry the harvested wet grain and collect it. I want to use the space on the roof to dry food. Cast-in-place roof can be used, because the cast-in-place roof is firm and flat, which is beneficial to drying grain. If you don't want to use the roof space, dry the grain. As long as you put tiles on the roof, the tile roof has good rain resistance and better heat insulation. In case of rain leakage, it is also convenient for maintenance. If you use glazed tiles to build the roof of a car, it is also very beautiful.

In a word, it is better to cast-in-place the roof or to cover the tile. This is based on their actual needs to consider the design. It's not easy in rural Gai Lou, so you must think clearly before you start work.

The roof of a covered tile is triangular. Although the temperature is scorched by the sun during the day, at night, the roof has a certain space, and the hot air will dissipate with the cracks in the tiles, and the indoor temperature will dissipate much faster than that of the cast-in-place roof.

In fact, in Hunan, there are the most rural houses with covered tiles, and covered tiles can also be used as cast-in-place floors, but there are really not many flat roofs. They are afraid of water leakage and hot weather, and they all want to use it for a long time, so they all choose to use cover tiles.

Although these two roof forms have their own shortcomings, the biggest advantage of these two roof forms is their high cost performance, which is very suitable for rural areas in the past. Now that the rural economy is getting better and better, people no longer pay attention to cost performance as in the past, because people pay more and more attention to the comfort of living environment, so these two roof forms are no longer suitable for rural self-built houses, although the cost performance is higher.

Generally speaking, if the roof of rural self-built houses is only chosen between flat roof and tile roof, personally, flat roof is relatively better because of its better thermal insulation and sealing ability than tile roof. However, regardless of economic reasons, I personally recommend the cast-in-place sloping roof, or choose to make a flat roof first and then a simple tile roof as we do here.
