A-frame roof
Steep triangular top
A roof consisting of two steeply sloped sides that meet at a ridge, forming a triangular shape resembling the letter A.
The roof extends from the ridge all the way to the foundation or near ground level, often serving as both roof and exterior walls: The A-frame roof sheds snow easily but limits usable interior space.
Common in cabins and vacation homes.
