In our countries, roofless roofs have become fashionable not so long ago. Abroad, a flat roof was always in fashion. For the construction of wooden houses with a flat roof modern materials are used, for example, glued beam. Sometimes they are made of dry wooden beams. Effectively look at home with a platform for rest on the roof and with a lawn.
A flat roof does not have an ideal shape. In any case, it will have a small offset. The reason for this is the fact that it is necessary to ensure the descent of snow and melt water. On flat roofs with a slight slope, a drainage system is often installed. Usually there is a five-degree frost so that the water flows leave the roof along the drainage system.

If it has an internal drain, it can freeze or become clogged (the option is an external drain). But sometimes you can not do without the use of internal gutters.

The outdoor organized system means that water will enter the gutters, and then be transferred to the drain. Such a system is usually laid over the curtain overhang and the outside of the wall. The essence of the internal system is that water enters through a water funnel, which is in the roofing systems. Streams of water are diverted from various risers.
