A hip roof with cross-gabled roof is a complex roof construction consisting of several roofs joined together. In this example, you’ll see a main hip roof with an adjoining gable roof, each with different ridge heights.
Roofs are said to ‘intersect’ where all roof ridges are at the same height. This is the case with cross-hipped roofs, like cruciform, ‘T’, or ‘L’ shaped roofs.
