Shed roof information


Shed roof attached to a barn

A shed roof, also known variously as a pent roof, lean-to roof, outshot, catslide, skillion roof (in Australia and New Zealand), and, rarely, a mono-pitched roof,[1] is a single-pitched roof surface. This is in contrast to a dual- or multiple-pitched roof.
