Interestingly, I saw flat roofs in Ottawa.


And I know some supermarkets that have flat roofs here, supported by 
flat wooden beams. But as there are not thick enough, long enough wooden 
beams here, they pile maybe a dozen beams tied vertically with iron girdles.

                                                       ·······

I don't know the name of the system. And on top of it, some sort of 
undulated metallic or fibre roofing.
