Usually the best way is to simply build a new sloped roof onto the flat roof.
A hip roof, or hipped roof, is a type of roof where all sides slope downwards to the walls, usually with a fairly gentle slope. A square hip roof is shaped like a pyramid. Hip roofs on rectangular houses will have two triangular sides and two trapezoidal ones. A hip roof on a rectangular plan has four faces.
The minimum slope or pitch fopr atile roof will depend on the exact profile of tile you are using. The lowest any tile can usually go is about 15 degrees, but some must be steeper. Check with the manufacturer as to their recimmendation.
A roof that is 10 x 20 has an area of 200 square feet. The cost to have this size roof shingled is approximately 1,800.00.

It all depends on the type of existing roofing that is going to be demolished and the replacment with a deck. If the roof is flat it is cheaper but if the roof has a slope then a whole new flat roof is required to support the deck.
The type of shingle you need really is a factor of what slope your existing roof has. A low slope roof needs a much different type shingle than a high slope, as water can intrude under the low slope. In this situation, a different type roof might be a better option.
Roofs may be functionally flat or "pitched". In building construction, roof pitch is a numerical measure of the steepness of a roof. A flat roof on the otherhand, is a roof which is almost level in contrast to the many types of sloped roofs. The slope of a roof is properly known as its pitch and flat roofs have up to approximately 10°. If you have a flat roof, there is probably a leak in it or there will be a need for a flat roof repairs in the future.
My roofer asked me what the slope of the roof was. It was an 8,12. That meant that the rise was 8 inches for 12 inches of run. A steeper roof would have more area and a flat roof would have less.At the corner I have to cut a 45 degree angle to make it match. That is a slope when turned flat of 1 over 1.The ramps in the USA have to be flatter than a slope of 1 over 10 and recommended to 1 over 12.

You cut rafters, brace them as needed depending on the span and shingle it. I put one on a friend of mines. I cut the outside ends of the rafters at an angle so that I didn't need to change the fascia. Lay a 2x6 flat on the existing roof to run the braces down to. Your roof may not be flat but have a slope one way on it so you will have to take that into consideration for the peaked roof. He had a slightly sloped roof with tar and gravel on it and at the time I was able to put a pitched roof on for less than they wanted to re tar the flat one.
Those who live in a building with a flat roof have advantages and disadvantages. A flat roof will not cause as many problems with gutters as a sloped roof would. It is also possible to shovel snow right off of the flat roof. However, it is also possible to have too much snow accumulate on this type of roof which can cause a cave-in or sagging. A flat roof may leak more from too much rain. However, in the extreme cold weather, icicles are not much of a problem with a flat roof. Since the water from the snow doesn't drip down as much as on a sloped roof, the icicles don't have a chance to form.
Petrol station in Malaysia roof flat because need to stop from burning. If heat can be inside, there will be much danger of possibly. Fire will to destroy many. But if petrol station roof flat then has chance not to inchange spark fire for not to come to life. Flat helps for keep every balance.

While flat, low slope, and pitched roofing are all great choices for commercial roofing in Utah, they do have different characteristics. Flat roofs are a popular choice due to their affordability, the fact that they are durable, and repairing them is quicker when compared to other choices. A pitched roof provides a building with a beautiful-looking roof, but with that, comes a higher price point compared to flat and slope roofing. Also, this commercial roofing option can be more difficult to maintain and repair as well. A low slope roof, as the name suggests, offers a slight dip or slope, which differentiates it from a flat roof. You'll see low slope roofs on apartment buildings, warehouses, industrial buildings, etc. A benefit to this style of roof is that it can shed rain, snow, and other elements better due to their slope, and they are easy to fix and repair.
