A roofing system has metal roofing shingles that have formed side lap features that are configured to facilitate alignment of adjacent side lapped metal roofing shingles of a shingle installation along a roofing structure and that couple the metal roofing shingles together and form seals and seams along their side lapped peripheral edges. The metal roofing shingles also can have alignment features that cooperate to align shingles in one course with shingles in a next lower course within their headlap regions. The roofing system also has standing seam features configured to couple to the metal roofing shingles to cover the formed seams.

Roof tile wherein the roof tile comprises a base element and further is comprised a transparent top element, wherein the roof tile comprises a group of solar panel elements, wherein the solar panel elements are comprised between the top element and the base element, under or within the top element, wherein the roof tile comprises a profiled shape section which comprises solar panel elements, wherein the profiled shape section allows for different angles of reception of sun rays within the roof tile, wherein the base element comprises concrete or clay. The disclosure is also related to a roof comprising a plurality of roof tiles, a method for producing a roof tile and to a machine for producing a roof tile.

Interlocking roof shingle has a front rounded tongue on the first side edge; a tongue on the first end edge; an elongated groove assembly on the upper surface with a groove defined therein; a groove in the second end edge of the body; a groove in the second side edge of the body; and an elongated tongue assembly on the lower surface. In an embodiment of the invention, the front rounded tongue of an upper roof shingle is inserted into the elongated groove assembly of a lower roof shingle while at the same time a leg of the elongated tongue assembly of the upper roof shingle enters into a groove in the second end edge of the lower roof shingle for interlocking upper and lower shingles. The tongue on the first end edge is inserted into a corresponding groove in the second end edge of an adjacent roof shingle.

A lightweight interlocking metal roof system for installation onto a steep or inclined structure roof either directly over the roof decking material or over an existing shingle roofing system, with the metal roofing system installed from the roof ridgeline down to the drip edge of the roof gutter. Cooperating outwardly extending flanges and receiving pockets for capturing and interlocking the metal panels of the roofing system create an interlock between and among panel members with overlying edge ends configured to be resistant to lift up due to winds either across the roof or along the roof edges.

A system includes a plurality of photovoltaic modules, each having a mat with an edge and a spacer with an edge, the edge of the mat being attached to the edge of the spacer. The spacer includes a plurality of support members and a solar module mounted to the support members. Each of the support members includes a ledge. The solar module and the ledge form a space therebetween. The space is sized and shaped to receive an edge of a solar module of another of the photovoltaic modules. The spacer of one of the photovoltaic modules overlays the mat of another of the photovoltaic modules.

Roof (2), at least in part covered by a modular roof covering, said modular roof covering comprising a plurality of modular elements (1) for covering said roof, wherein the plurality of elements is arranged such that at least part of a roof is fully covered by the plurality of elements, and wherein each element is coupled via coupling means to at least one adjacent further element of the plurality of elements, and the roof having sloped rafters (4) extending mutually parallel to a roof ridge, wherein the plurality of elements is directly mounted onto rafters, wherein preferably each element is supported, in a direction transverse to the rafters, onto two neighbouring rafters.

The present disclosure provides a new design for an injection molded roof panel with multiple improvements. The panel is made from PVC-like materials via injection molding with a large standard size. It comprises laterally and longitudinally sloped watercourses and arches. A tongue at the front connects to a vertically adjacent panel's rear upper interlocking member. Interlocks at the lateral ends of the panel connect one panel to another horizontally adjacent panel. Condensed water ridges underneath the panel drain condensation to the panel's front, where it is drained with angled weep holes on the tongue. The upper surface has a non-smooth low-noise texture to prevent slips/falls and reduce noise. The roof panel is secured onto roof sheathing with nail flanges with screw holes/bosses. The design achieves improved water drainage, increased installation security and speed, improved wind resistance, increased personnel safety, reduced noise, lighter weight, lower cost, and improved lifespan.
