Key points for this image

This is a hut cross-section.

• The shelter has a steep roof supported by rafters.
• Reed thatch covers the sloping exterior.
• A central support reaches the roof apex.
• The interior floor lies below the marked ground level.
• Seats and ashes are labelled within the shelter.

Conclusion idea: The section reveals both the roof structure and the recessed living space.

These are key points and a structure written by RealPTE, not a script to memorise: say or write it in your own words.
