	A gable roof, might be considered one of the most standard kinds of roof, where two halves of the roof meet at the highest point in a centre line, pitching down to an overhang on the side walls. The stright sides are closed up to the pitch by the gable, gable walls or gable ends which form an upper triangle enclosing the roof space.

All parts working together structurally to form trusses, with the space above the tie beams being the vented cold roof space, usually vented at the eaves (where the joint of the rafters and tie beams sit on the supporting walls) and the space below being the warm insulated space, often with insultation between and above the tie beams.

	Other specific descriptions of a gable roof might include front gable, side gable and cross gable. A side or front gable simple describes where the gable end is in relation to the street, at the front or entrance to the house or at the side, with the pitch roof coming to the front. A cross gable roof is where two or more building blocks, with roof gable meet perpendicular to one another, thus creating a valley roof at the point where the two pitches meet and run into a valley gutter.
