Abstract
A load-bearing table for use on a peaked roof is made up of a platform which is hinged along a general center line for resting on the peak of the roof and has support bars pivotally attached and extending downward from the platform on either side of the peak to help support the table by applying forces which squeeze or pinch together against the rooftop on either side of the peak to hold the table and load in place and to minimize any damage to the roof and rafters. The support bars are adjustable with respect to the platform to accommodate different roof pitches.
