Abstract

A connection structure includes a first connection structure connecting a lower end of a first slope beam and a first framework member, the first connection structure including a first metal fitting that comes into contact with a first end surface of the lower end of the first slope beam. The first slope beam and the first framework member are connected by the first metal fitting in such a manner that a lower surface of the first slope beam is positioned higher than an upper surface of the first framework member.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A connection structure, comprising:
 a first connection structure connecting a lower end of a first sloped beam and a first framework member, wherein   the first connection structure includes a first metal bracket contacting a first end surface of the lower end of the first sloped beam, and   the first metal bracket connects the first sloped beam and the first framework member so that a lower surface of the first sloped beam is located above an upper surface of the first framework member.   
     
     
         2 . The connection structure according to  claim 1 , wherein the first metal bracket includes a first connection surface contacting the first end surface, and a second connection surface contacting the upper surface of the first framework member and perpendicularly intersecting the first connection surface. 
     
     
         3 . The connection structure according to  claim 2 , wherein the first connection surface includes a first connection portion configured to be inserted into a slit formed in the first end surface. 
     
     
         4 . The connection structure according to  claim 2 , wherein the second connection surface includes a second connection portion configured to be inserted into an insertion hole formed in the upper surface of the first framework member. 
     
     
         5 . The connection structure according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a second connection structure connecting an upper end of the first sloped beam and a second framework member that is arranged parallel to the first framework member, wherein   the second connection structure includes a second metal bracket contacting a second end surface of the upper end of the first sloped beam,   the second end surface is opposite to the first end surface, and   the second connection structure includes a structure in which the first sloped beam is connected to the second framework member by the second metal bracket so that at least part of the second end surface is located above an upper surface of the second framework member.   
     
     
         6 . A roof of a building, the roof comprising:
 the connection structure according to  claim 1 .   
     
     
         7 . A roof of a building, the roof comprising:
 a first framework member;   a second framework member arranged parallel to the first framework member;   a first sloped beam connected to the first framework member and the second framework member; and   a rafter arranged parallel to the first sloped beam,   wherein the first sloped beam is connected to the first framework member and the second framework member so that an upper surface of the first sloped beam is located above a lower surface of the rafter.   
     
     
         8 . The roof according to  claim 7 , wherein the first sloped beam is connected to the first framework member and the second framework member so that the upper surface of the first sloped beam is located at the same height as an upper surface of the rafter. 
     
     
         9 . The roof according to  claim 7 , further comprising:
 a second sloped beam arranged parallel to the first sloped beam,   wherein the second sloped beam is connected to the first framework member and the second framework member so that an upper surface of the second sloped beam is located below an upper surface of the rafter.   
     
     
         10 . The roof according to  claim 9 , further comprising:
 a verge member arranged crossing the second sloped beam and supported by the second sloped beam.
