Hello hello!
I am planning to build a simple deck outside my skylight on a tiled roof. I was thinking of building it with decking. The roof's pitch is about 30 degrees and it will be 1.5 x 2.5 meters. At the bottom, I plan to place 3 posts, 10x10 cm decking posts. The question is how to attach them to the roof considering there is tile underneath. I've looked everywhere without finding a solution. I would appreciate any help available here.
Best regards,
Andreas

If the roof consists of raw wood paneling, which is then covered with felt and fitted with roof tiles, it is possible to attach to the paneling. Preferably use fittings that are adapted for this and distribute the weight on the backside.
Alternatively, you can fasten the entire structure to the rafters.
Considering that the terrace will be used for stepping out onto, you should contact an engineer to construct it for you so it is safe to use.
It is also important to ensure that the roof is watertight.
