I will talk about the roof of the house .. Why I picked up this theme as the theme of my first article? Because for me the roof of a house is one of the interesting to think about. Men make a living because they want to shelter from bad weather .. they make a shelter that frees them from suffering in the rain and hot .. And the roof is my personal symbol for the protection of my blog from "hot" and "rain".
There are various types of roof from the house .. I split them up into 4 types based on the material it is made.
1. Metal roof. The roof of this type was originally created for the needs of industrial sites, such as factories, warehouses. Type of metal used is a light weight .. for example zinc, aluminum .. The advantages of metal roofs is that they are lightweight, easy to install ..

Taken from the tree, woven into sheets of a wide .. use for modern buildings found in many resorts, tropical area on the beach.

4. The roof of clay
made of molded clay and burned .. this kind of heavy roof but he is very strong. it is used as a residential rooftops. the key to getting the roof of clay is of good quality soil types and complete combustion. There is a special method to check the quality of a tile roof .. Take one tile, look at the color .. If the red color somewhat orange from the ground means he's good .. and if it sounds loud sentillah the perfect combustion .. Before the use of clay tile best (clay roof) soaked in water for 24 hours ... This will make it more durable, and not easily broken when we set it up.
