Curved Roof Canopies

Curved Roof Canopies

Our Motiva Mono, Motiva Duo and Motiva Wave are all curved roof canopies which can be made to any radius to suit your design preference. (Designers need to consider water run-off.)

The Motiva Mono is our monopitch (asymmetric) curved roof canopy – this is where one side is higher than the other, the standard configuration for canopies located against building elevations.

The Motiva Duo is our Duopitch (symmetric) curved roof canopy – this is where both sides are at the same height, the most common configuration for standalone structures and walkways symmetric curved roof canopies are sometimes described as ‘Barrel Vault Canopies’ or just as ‘Barrel Vaulted’ (A barrel vault, also known as a tunnel vault or a wagon vault, is an architectural element formed by the extrusion of a single curve along a given distance. The curves are typically circular in shape, lending a semi-cylindrical appearance to the total design. The barrel vault is the simplest form of a vault: effectively a series of arches placed side by side, i.e., one after another. It is a form of barrel roof.).

The Motiva Wave is either a single concave radius or a double curve (‘S’ shape) roof canopy giving all the benefits of our standard designs but with a new and funky look, this is a good solution for buildings with low rooflines, where a standalone unit is required or where you need a canopy with added wow factor.
