Strength:
The North Slope’s unique arch design with no flat spots is stronger and drips less. The Romans knew it, an arch is stronger so you will see no flat spots on the North Slope roof. The steep angle of the arch reduces dripping.Ventilation:
One of the advantages of the north Slope is that it can be fitted with a ridge vent. With roll-up or drop walls on the sides, the North Slope is an excellent candidate for Natural Ventilation. Many growers use the roll up wall on the sides and a roof vent at the peak.Code or Non-Code:
