односкатное/двускатное покрытие Greenhouses should be designed with single/double slope(d) roof(ing).

Explanation:
I agree with Jack, but I believe "double slope" is the right term here.

Gable: The end of a building as distinguished from the front or rear side. The triangular end of an exterior wall from the level of the eaves to the ridge of a double-sloped roof. In house construction, the portion of the roof above the eave line of a double-sloped roof

There is only a few references to a "twin slope roof" on the net, while "double-slope roof" is fairly abundant.
