FAQ
Why do overhangs and chajjas add to the roofing material estimate?
Overhangs and chajjas extend the roof slab beyond the wall line to shade windows and protect walls from direct rain, which adds both concrete and steel quantity proportional to their projection length, and they also introduce cantilever design considerations that your structural engineer needs to account for.
