Roof-uppermost part of a building

A roof is uppermost covering of a building which provides protection from animals and weather, heat, wind and sunlight. The characteristics of a roof are based upon the purpose of building that it’s covering area, the available roofing materials and local traditions of construction and wider concepts of architectural design. In most countries a roof protects primarily against rain. A verandah may be roofed with material that protects against sunlight but admits the other elements. The roof of a garden conservatory protects plants from cold, wind, and rain, but admits light. The word also denotes the structure which supports that covering.
