A BIPV canopy that mixes materials by structural role. Waterproof rails and gutters are ZAM steel for strength and corrosion resistance; the remaining components are lightweight 6005-T5 aluminium — and hot-dip-galvanized carbon steel posts carry the heaviest weather. Roof slopes run up to 45°, with landscape and portrait gutter profiles closing the surface against rain.
