Looks like typical travel trailer construction from the manufacturers brochure.
Typical RV roofs are taller in the middle and around 3"-4" thick at the center and the ends will be about 2" or so at the sidewall ends.. This is done to shed water and snow.
Looks like it has roof A/C and skylight, if you can look at one in person, measure the depth of the skylight. That will give your the thickness in the center, the thickness will taper down to about half that at the sidewalls.
Since it has roof A/C, it must be able to support that so if you need to get on the roof for maintenance, it should be sturdy enough for that. But since it is a "Ultra lite" RV, be very aware that may corners have been cut to reduce the weight.. Some cut corners are obvious and some not so obvious.
