    have seen some interesting rendered designs online with flat roof & what appears to be parapet wall on either side.
    I'm having difficulty understanding how it comes together from ceiling upwards when looking at a 2 storey building.
    Can you shed some light on this for me or give some practical drawing descriptions etc. Most of these types of videos do not show any drainage solutions.
    I have seen some of your other videos & found them extremely valuable resources to get good factual information

      Hi Mate, with a parapet wall there is what is essentually a box gutter behingd the wall. There are some details on this webpage.
      abcseamless.com.au/box.htm
      Personally I have never seen a box gutter that has not leaked or overflowed into the building at some stage and I aviod them at all costs. Hope this helps.
