In Filipino construction, there are terms so common that it has surpassed generations, from the Spanish-speaking elders to the everyday construction personnel working on roofing. These are the Dos Aguas and  Quatro Aguas Roofs. A common sentence for these terms would be, \u201cGawin nating quatro aguas ang bubong.\u201d What does it really mean?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A dos aguas roof is a roof with two slopes. Its english term is a gable roof. A quatro aguas, on the other hand is a roof with four slopes. Its english term is a hip roof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are disadvantages and advantages to each kind of roof. The dos aguas is advantageous in terms of construction because it can be built easily while the quatro aguas roof has a more complicated style. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the dos aguas roof is prone to wind damage which can be disadvantageous in areas with strong typhoons.The quatro aguas, on the other hand, is more durable and can deal with adverse weather conditions, including heavy rain and strong winds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
