FAQ’s

• Can I Get Engineering for my Hip Carport?

Every Comes With Site Specific Engineering to Current Australian Standards, Wind Codes and Building Codes. This means all the relevant drawings as well as a signed form, certificate or letter from the engineer, depending on the state you live in. 

• What’s Included With My Hip Roof Carport?

Absolutely everything is included with the carport kit. This includes: Posts, Frame, Roof Sheets, flashings, guttering, downpipes, connecting brackets, bolts, nuts, screws, rivets and even a tube of silicone for the guttering.

The only thing you need for the installation is some concrete. 

You will also receive what we call a ‘bill of materials’, which is essentially a list of parts. Every part can then be checked off when your carport arrives. As mentioned above, all the engineering drawings also come with the carport. These will show you very easy to understand connection details to put the frame together. Of course, if you have any questions you can also call for some old fashioned technical assistance.

• What are the disadvantages of a hip roof?

There aren’t really any disadvantages. Carports with a hip style roofline match most houses very well and can add value to your property. The only thing to bear in mind is that it takes a bit longer to install, as you need to cut most if not all of the roof sheets to the angle required.

• Why are Hip Roofs Better?

Hip roof carports are a better option for a lot of homes as they match the house roof design more closely than other carport designs. They also can add more dimension and value to houses with simpler designs.

• Is a Hip Roof Carport Good Against the Wind?

A hip roof shape is a very good design for a pitched roof, when it comes to wind load. Because it has less cross sectional area on the roof, it has less wind load, when compared to a gable or dutch gable roof design.

• How are Hip Roof Carports Measured?

The depth/span and width/length are always measured as a frame size, which is everything except for the guttering. This is the same for other carports. The only difference being that the guttering can add 250mm to 270mm to the overall measurement depending on which type is used.  This is due to the gutters being on all 4 sides.

What is the difference between a gable roof and a hip roof?

The main difference is that a gable roof slopes on 2 sides and a hip roof slopes on 4 sides.

The 2 sides that do not slope on a gable are usually designed with gable infill panels.
