Decking is often used as a building material for arranging the roof of a house. At the same time, it must be remembered that not all types of corrugated board are suitable for carrying out these works.
Therefore, before choosing it is recommended to carefully read the technical characteristics of each of the types.
Which decking is suitable for arranging the roof?
When choosing building materials, you must pay attention to such criteria as:
- Profile form;
- The presence of additional stiffeners;
- The thickness.
The thickness of the material should not be less than 4.5 cm. This will ensure its resistance to loads and significantly extend the life of the device. With the right choice, corrugated board can serve the owner of the house for more than one decade, and therefore you do not need to save on a purchase.
The profile shape of the material intended for use in roofing should be trapezoidal. In this case, it is possible to ensure uniform pressure distribution and resistance to mechanical damage.
It is important to pay attention to such an indicator as the zinc content in the finished material. Zinc should be at least 180 grams per 1 square meter of profiled sheet. It is this substance that increases the durability of the material, ensures its endurance and invulnerability in conditions of high humidity and temperature extremes.
Another criterion is the presence of a protective layer, the thickness of which should be at least 15-25 micrometers for a glossy coating and 35 micrometers for a matte finish. It is important to remember that for the arrangement of the roof can not be used material treated with powder coloring compounds. In this case, its service life will vary within 3-4 years, after which it will lose its technical and visual properties.
What length of sheets to choose?
When ordering, it is worth choosing the length of sheets of material correctly. At the same time, it is recommended to take measurements of the roof and take into account factors such as the angle of its inclination and the presence of inaccessible places.
It is important to understand that any fasteners are potential places through which moisture can leak, causing condensation to form on the crate. Condensation will cause mold and mildew and cause rotting of the wood frame. Therefore, experts recommend the use of sheets of such a length that you can do without a large number of mounts and joints.
