This kind of architecture is very scientific and practical.In some part of China, there is a heavy rainfall throught the year.The curved roofs make the rain fall down on the ground easily and keep the roofs dry.
The Cahuilla brush houses were made of earthen walls and thatched roofs, some had roofs that came almost to the ground and gave the appearance of being a thatched house or a house made of "brush."
Yes, the mud houses in Mesopotamia did have roofs. The roofs were made from various materials depending on the period and location. Some of the materials used include: Reeds: Some roofs were made from reeds, sometimes with mud covering them. Planks of Palm Tree Wood: Roofs could also be made planks of palm tree wood which would be covered in reeds. The top of the roof would be connected to the house through brick. Thick Layers of Earth: In Assyria, the flat roofs were thick layers of earth on top of strong beams. This made the houses nearly or actually fireproof, and places of security. It’s also worth noting that these roofs were often flat, and people would sometimes cook and eat on the roof of the house during good weather. This got everyone up away from the streets, yet still out into the open air.
The ancient Greeks typically used materials such as clay tiles, which were often flat or curved, to construct roofs. They also utilized wooden beams and thatch in some regions, particularly for less formal structures. In wealthier buildings, stone or marble might be used for decorative elements, while the overall construction emphasized durability and effective drainage. Roofs were designed to withstand the Mediterranean climate, including heavy rain and strong winds.
THey were pretty close to the same but they were not exactly. They were like that but what about the farm houses and stuff they were no all the is right they were close
C H I N A :Din southern China, on the other hand, it was pretty much hot all the time, andwood was very scarce. People there mostly built houses of mud-brick, andthe houses were mostly a wall around an open courtyard, with some smallrooms built around the edges of the courtyard to keep stuff in and to go intowhen it rained (which wasn't very often). These are called "courtyardhouses." Here the animals would be kept in the courtyards, which often had awell or a cistern in the middle to collect water. The roofs were usually flat, sopeople could sleep on them and keep cool.In China, we find rich people living in bigger houses with pillars and tiled roofs beginning in the Chou Dynasty, about 1000 BC.
All countries in Europe have sloping roofs on at least some of their houses
Tiles, slates and some very old houses in rural areas have thatched roofs made from reeds.
Most of the houses in china are connected, that means they are houses that are joined together. The traditional Chinese houses are colours of black , white, beige, orange, red etc. Also they have a series of roofs. That means they more than one roof on their house. To see a picture of a Chinese house go on google images and search Chinese houses or traditional Chinese houses. The multiple roofs have the edges pointed somewhat upward in mostly colors of a dark red with some sunny yellow(also darkish grey). The houses themselves are many stories high and ground level. For poorer houses, they are mainly made of mudbricks and mostly one story.
Blows trees over, damages roofs of houses

Some houses are made out of cow dung, and some homes are made out of wood so that the roofs don't blow of, but most of the houses are made out of metal

Sloping roofs are self-draining from rain and snow, and less likely to leak.
Some Chinese people live in the Emperor's palace, houses or apartments.
some decorative household items, roofs on some houses, pyramids, pencil points, tent, and crayon points are in the shape of triangular prisms
Because of the harsh weather in rajasthan thick walls prevent the house from being too heated during summer and also keep the house warm during cold winters. Houses have flat roofs because Rajasthan receives very less rainfall so there no use in having slanting roofs and also they help to retain water to keep the house cool...!!
The most common angles used on the roofs of houses are typically steep or moderate pitches, often referred to as gable or hip roofs. These angles usually range from 30 to 45 degrees, allowing for effective water drainage and snow shedding. Additionally, the choice of angle can contribute to the aesthetic appeal of a home and provide usable attic space. Flat roofs are also used in some architectural styles, particularly in modern designs.
