Supporting a Flat Extension Roof Spanning 4 by 4 Meters

I am going to build a 4 meter by 4 meter roof over my wooden structure extension. Do I need to support it in the middle or will timber joists support the weight? I am going to put Decra roofing tiles on top and there will be a minimal slope so it will effectively be a flat roof. Is there any guide books on line I can access. Thanks in advance. BigBurd
