I've seen different types of plastic roofs used for RV's.
Some of the plastic roofs are made from a polycarbonate while others are made from fiberglass, with strands of fiberglass combined with fiberglass resin. A polycarbonate is a thermoplastic which is approx. four times stronger than fiberglass.

I can remember a boat from years ago that was made from concrete.
It was made from some sort of specialized concrete and wire.
