A roof assembly comprising a wall plate
There is disclosed a roof assembly (124) for a building (10a), a building comprising the roof assembly, and an associated method. The roof assembly (124) comprises: at least two elongate joists (126, 128, 136-144); and an insulated wall plate (28e) comprising a loadbearing structural part (56e), an insulation part (58e) carried by the load-bearing structural part, and a main axis (130) extending along a length direction of the wall plate. The elongate joists are connected to the wall plate at respective connection locations (132, 134) on the wall plate which are spaced apart along its main axis. The roof assembly is configured to be installed in the building as a unitary structure comprising the elongate joists and the insulated wall plate. The insulated wall plate is configured to be seated on a load-bearing structural wall (16a) of the building, to thereby connect the elongate joists to the wall.
