Laid to falls foamed concrete
Explanation:
Δεδομένου πως εμμένω στην άποψή μου πως ρύση είναι η ροή και το κείμενο μιλάει για αφρομπετόν κλίσεων

"Roofing is probably the most widespread application of foamed concrete. Foamed concrete has two benefits
when it is used for roofing. The first benefit is that it provides both thermal and sound insulation. The second
benefit is that it can be used to lay a flat roof to falls, i.e. to provide a slope for drainage".
