What's with the rocks on the roof thing?

Welcome to Russia. Here's your shipping crate coated in wood. Here's another shipping crate full of vodka. Try not to freeze.

Sometimes I think about disappearing into the wilderness but I just assumed someone will find me and tell me I don't own the land so leave
PressureWashington
I wouldn't mind visiting a place like this for a weekend. But running water & plumbing are things I prefer to have in my life. Still cool!

So sounds like you're SOL

Sounds like they can be satisfied with a modern home and rustic vacations.

How does the rock in wire cage roof work? Advantages?
ddaaddddyypantz
I-think it is there to weight the structures down during high winds. Doesn’t need to be so thick just for stealth reasons
WuTangoReinhardtUnchained
It looks good
baloosingh
Also keeps you stealthy from satellite images! I think...
prNrg
Also, keeps things pinned down in high winds.

I don't know if it would matter in that setting, but can help against hail.
mckinful
Fun fact: the landscaping term for rocks in a wire cage (usually for forming walls) is gabion!
markpphotos
Helps snow not build up on top of the building.
The701
How would that help? (Seriously asking, not sure how it would work; wouldn't snow just build up on the rocks same as a shingled roof?)
kmikl
My thoughts: It keeps snow from accumulating, but it does allow it to melt a bit so it doesn't pack.
chewybrian
Can anyone explain how chicken wire and rocks make a roof?
chewybrian
Or a foundation?
msheiz
Based on other pictures where it is still yet to be added, my guess is it's mainly looks and just to cover the water proofing (tar paper?).

It's called a Gabion iirc: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gabion Work as walls for motorway cuttings, also works well as protective walls 1/
ChloeRed
for forward military bases, iirc 2/2
BigTex1
My only thought is maybe it’s to cover/protect pipes & wires. But it also seems like it would trap moisture on top.
chewybrian
I still don't get it. Extra weight, not water tight, limited lifespan (fails when the wire fails, up to 50 years.)
BigTex1
Another comment says it’s to keep snow from building up on top of the building.
eponra
