The min thickness of the roof slab should be 6 inches and maximum it can go up to 13 14 inches for span up to 7 m long. For example standard 29 gauge steel roofing made in long panels is about 0 36 millimeters thick and the 26 gauge version is slightly thicker at 0 48 millimeters. So bad contractor could quote 1mm thickness during contracts bidding and use 0 8mm thickness without the knowledge of the client.
