Why secure a loft trapdoor in a storm?

And what's the roof pitch to do with anything?

In theory you can get a suction effect similar to
what you get with an aircraft aerofoil section.

In practice it isnt seen often enough to matter.

I wonder what the roof pitch has to do with it.

That's what determines whether you get the aerofoil effect.

When the pitch is too high, you don't.

Who has a loft in a roof under 30 degrees?

You do so a few mansard roofs like that.

That wouldn't be possible.

Corse it is with a mansard roof.

That doesn't make sense.

Corse it does.

Look at the picture in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mansard_roof
There are rooms in the roof.

They arent all done like that.

Your turn to provide a picture.
