When roof panels won't fit

[openspaceman]

Is there a good reason or planning consideration in UK where the south facing roof is hipped why the framework for the panels cannot be extended beyond the hip . I can see wind loading would be a potential problem.

From memory I think there is a 200mm rule so it probably can slightly. I have a slight overhang over the edge of my kitchen extension roof were its advantageous to minimise shading.

Triangular panels are also available to help with this problem of hipped roofs.

Plenty of room...
