I have looked at over 100 different models in past year this roofline really caught my eye.
Manufactured home hinged roof.
This option is only available for mobile manufactured housing mmh.
Most mobile homes have a distinct look to them but with raised roof structures they can look amazing.
I have been looking at fleetwood s new line here in norcal with a 6 12 pitched roof waterford series.
The important issue is not the hinge but the quality of the dealers installation crew.
It allows the home to meet the height requirements for shipment on the highways and yet allows the increased pitch for installation.
Roof construction of a clayton built manufactured home starts inside a climate controlled home building facility with trained home builders assembling a complex truss system that has been specifically engineered to provide a secure foundation for the rest of the roof.
Any pros and or cons on hinged roofs.
The articulated hinge roof is a design that is regularly used in manufactured housing.
Two good indications that a roof is hinged are the sidewalls and the roof pitch.
Also notice how the power nailer the builder is using is attached to the roof of the factory.
Over the past 10 years raised roofs have helped a great deal to improve the overall visual image of a mobile home.
Workers continue on the hinged roof.
The size of each roof truss depends on the design roof load and pitch.
I m told that the hinged roof is for transporting the home the home is a 30 x68 dw with 9 side walls.
