Alexander had designed the autopsy room with features meant to best maximize the ease of discovery in there.

This primarily meant having adequate light supply, which was achieved by having no roof, while also having other ease of life options such as a slanted floor to help drain the blood into the sewers below, a huge built-in pyre to burn the bodies, that coincidentally also benefited with having no roof as it allowed the fumes to escape easily, and lastly, the know-how from Alexander about how to actually document the findings.

Now, back to the first point, having no permanent roof did mean having to contend with rain and snow.

And to combat them there were thick heavy rolls of leather attached to the upper ends of the room which could be quickly unfolded to act as a makeshift shade during emergencies, where the rolls would be supported by poles that could be attached to the ground as supports.
