  • the horizontal roofing roof structure of the present embodiment even if rain water intrudes through the gap between the adjacent ends of the first lateral roofing material 31 and the second lateral roofing material 32 , the inner gutter 5 can receive the rain water. Especially, even when wind and rain are severe, the horizontal roofing roof structure of the present embodiment can ensure well water barrier property because the right side, the left side and the ridge side of a junction between the first lateral roofing material 31 and the second lateral roofing material 32 can be sealed with the first seal 52 , the second seal 53 , and the third seal 54 , respectively. As a result, the horizontal roofing roof structure of the present embodiment need not include the decorative member necessary for the conventional horizontal roofing roof structure, and thus can be produced at a lowered cost. In brief, according to the horizontal roofing roof structure of the present embodiment, it is possible to maintain the water barrier property without the decorative member.
  • the gap is provided between the adjacent ends of the first lateral roofing material 31 and the second lateral roofing material 32 in the embodiment.
  • the horizontal roofing roof structure of the embodiment allows the inner gutter 5 to discharge, through the gap, water which is received by the inner gutter 5 .
  • the horizontal roofing roof structure of the present embodiment accordingly can discharge most of rain water received by the inner gutter 5 , toward the eave through the gap. Therefore, according to the horizontal roofing roof structure of the present embodiment, it is possible to prevent rain water from staying on the back side of the lateral roofing material 3 .
  • the present embodiment includes the gap provided between the adjacent ends of the first lateral roofing material 31 and the second lateral roofing material 32 , even if the first lateral roofing material 31 and/or the second lateral roofing material 32 is expanded due to heat, interference between them can be prevented.
  • the adjacent ends of the first lateral roofing material 31 and the second lateral roofing material 32 are flush with each other, and thus the appearance can be improved.
  • the roof surface cannot be flat because of presence of the decorative member.
  • the horizontal roofing roof structure of the present embodiment it is possible to obtain a flat roof surface. Therefore, the horizontal roofing roof of the present embodiment can have simple appearance.
  • the horizontal roofing roof structure of the present embodiment includes the gap provided between the adjacent ends of the first lateral roofing material 31 and the second lateral roofing material 32 .
  • the gap is optional.
  • the horizontal roofing roof structure of the present embodiment does not include a thermally insulating material between the sheathing roof board 12 and the lateral roofing material 3 .
  • the thermally insulating material may be provided between the sheathing roof board 12 and the lateral roofing material 3 .
  • roofing structure of the present invention is not limited to the present embodiment and can be implemented with appropriate modification without going beyond the inherent scope of the present invention.
