Hello
I am planning to buy the conservatory below with a gable roof and place it against the house. It will grow on one long side of the house.

My question is whether I can buy this conservatory and put roof tiles instead of a plastic roof? I live in Halland, so there isn't a lot of snow to consider.

Thanks in advance
3D model of a gabled conservatory with transparent plastic roof, wooden frame, and glass walls, suitable for attaching to a house.

If anyone knows how to calculate bärkraft, it is very welcome too.
 
Talk to their customer service?

I have already done that. Unfortunately, they say they do not sell roof tiles for these and therefore cannot provide any answers.
 
It is not possible to make a correct calculation because dimensions are missing. But one can reason like this: The roof is stated to be made for snow zone 2.5. Halland is in zone 1-1.5. Then you have 100 kg/m² "to spare". Tile usually weighs 30 kg/m² or less, so I might dare to take the risk...
 
What about any warranties? TS may not care about that. As the previous writer mentioned, maybe SB can provide dimensions.

Found a manual on their website. It contains the following dimension information.

Ridge beam 90x270
Support beam 90x225
Roof beam 56x180
Post 120x120
Ridge post 90x90

Now, I might be explaining to a beginner, but the ridge beam is at the top and the roof beams then slope towards it. The posts stand in the ground and the roof beams rest on top of them.

I might be explaining to a beginner here, but the ridge beam is at the top and the rafters then slope towards it. The posts are in the ground and the rafters rest on top of these.

Maybe it's easier to include a print screen from the manual. Diagram of a gable roof structure with labeled components, showing beams, posts, and roof parts as per a construction manual screenshot. Chart from a construction manual showing dimensions for different structural elements like ridge beam, roof beam, and post for a conservatory.
 
With these dimensions, brick feels OK completely spontaneously! :)
