Eaves

The eaves are the edges of the roof which overhang the face of a wall and, normally, project beyond the side of a building. The eaves form an overhang to throw water clear of the walls and may be highly decorated as part of an architectural style; such as the Chinese dougong bracket systems.

Etymology and usage

Eaves is derived from Old English efes meaning edge. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, eaves is both the singular and plural form of the word. However, the Merriam-Webster website lists the word as eave and states that it is "usually used in plural". The word was used before the 12th century in the form efes (Old English).

Function

The primary function of the eaves is to keep rain water off the walls and to prevent the ingress of water at the junction where the roof meets the wall. The eaves may also protect a pathway around the building from the rain, prevent erosion of the footings, and reduce splatter on the wall from rain as it hits the ground.

The secondary function is to control solar penetration as a form of passive solar building design; the eaves overhang can be designed to adjust the building's solar gain to suit the local climate, the latitude and orientation of the building.

avias seay 2012 "B.P. off memorial"
Chorus:
yo, im at the b.p. off memorial, the b.p. off memorial
yall want my lo-cation um chillen with a girl name gloria
i might just get some gas, might just re-up on my stash
mixtape sells, um bout my cash, la-ter tonight a club bash
verse1:
when they text me on my celly i tell em im at b.p.
they ask me whats going on tonight i tell em ride up here and see
dj whitegirl posted up with the new cds on the table
so many hot tracks might as well gone head and start her own label
hood girls with piercings in navals, fly boyz i aint telling fables
my niggaz squad up in club kathleen but i wasnt able
i just like to lay low, chill at the local hood store
ball out with da bombs, watch they tempers just blow
as long as im around niggaz dont consider them poor
me another drink as i watch,the traffic just flow
if you a foreigner this my turf so you should know
we consider you a novice but the locals a pro
i got my slushy in hand, sunflowers seed from japan
might cop some homestyle cajun boil peanuts in the can
i might grab a six pack, watch the arabs and sit back
friday nights parked in the back blasting the lac
Chorus (2x's)
im at the b.p. off memorial, the b.p. off memorial
yall want my lo-cation um chillen with a girl name gloria
i might just get some gas, might just re-up on my stash
mixtape sells, um bout my cash, la-ter tonight a club bash
verse2:
yep i just spotted a classmate i think they call her katrice
just got a car wash and some gas on, pump three
swagged out like a dog gone and give me my fleece
a nigga might live in lakeland but in my mind im in greece
got so much money i can wipe my butt for days
wipe 20's, 100's damn there go somebody escalade
niggaz all around the dump in the back play-ing spades
cops about to bust the block with all these charades
down the street yo its feltons 3 more mins you hit gyros
when the club close down niggaz go stuff they pie holes
here come them selling fake jewelry, but i want some real gold
i like that piece with the rosary so consider it sold
you need sharp rims go to spikers, they'll put them on faster than bikers
yo i stay on my grind i consider the rest of yall slackers
its where the cds be free, open 7 days of the week
everything in one location only at the B.P.
Chorus: (2x's)
im at the b.p. off memorial, the b.p. off memorial
yall want my lo-cation um chillen with a girl name gloria
i might just get some gas, might just re-up on my stash
