This building material is increasingly began to be used in the construction and continues to gain popularity due to good performance and price. It can be used in the construction of:
- Exterior walls;
- Overlap (attic and interfloor);
- roofs;
- partitions;
- shops;
- Hangars, warehouses;
- During the construction of houses;
Needed when restoring objects, it can be used to reduce the construction time and reduce the load bearing structures. Available also in the form of cassettes.
Where corrugated board can not be used
It is not recommended to put it on a wooden support, as they quickly soak and they should be strong to drive into the ground, it is recommended to use shaped tubes, screw piles. It can not be cut in parts, because then the edges will remain untreated and this may affect its strength and cause a reduction of its service life.
There is a great temptation to buy low-quality corrugated board. This can lead to:
- Structural collapse under the pressure of snow, water, hail and other natural phenomena;
- Because of temperature and mechanical stress corrugated board may be deformed and out of date;
- Most fire hazard in the application of layers of combustible materials;
- Early corrosion;
As you can see, it is better not to save money on this stuff.
types of corrugated board
It comes in different forms, but it is possible to identify the main:
- The designation "H". Used for the roof or in the ceiling;
- If it says "NS", this versatile material that can be used for the construction of roofs, walls and fences to be installed;
- "C" is the type of wall sheeting. It anywhere else is not recommended.
For sheeting exist protective coatings, which are also worth mentioning:
- Galvanized sheet profile. It reflects the sun's rays, which is good for the longevity of the material. Used primarily for garages and auxiliary buildings;
- Aluminosilicate coating. Used to protect from external factors and long service life;
- Aluminum-zinc coating. This cheap protective coating, which can significantly improve the appearance. Of the benefits should be allocated a low price and the possibility of using aluminum zinc. Most often used for cold-rolled sheets. It has a lower durability than the silico-coating;
