As a self- fastened metal profile on the roof ?

Identification and characterization of metal sheets on the roof

Metal profile - a building material made from pre-galvanized steel.The strength is determined by its 0.12 centimeters thick.The manufacturing process is based on the cold skating hot sheet metal profile.Production takes two steps:

  1. Metalloprofilny sheet is treated against corrosion agent
  2. primer material is coated with a solution

The process of making metal sheets

on the outside is applied to a mixture of resins and plastics construction.For a smooth and appealing surface in the processing of coloring components are added.The back of the sheet is covered with a layer of high-quality tools in a paint that protects the structure of the metal sheets from damage.

Paint has a variety of color shades

Roofing material has a wavy appearance.Often made of trapezoidal shape.
Roof profile has the following positive qualities:

  • sturdy structure;
  • Low weight;
  • strength;
  • lack of propensity to ignite;Gentle
  • price;
  • unprofessional installation scheme;
  • long-term use.

Decking has many benefits for the roof

There are several categories of metal sheets (corrugated):

  1. NC - designed for the installation of the walls and floor structures;
  2. C - Mount the fence walls;
  3. H - performs the function of coatings, walls, roofs.

There are different models of the profile .Each of them performs its function building .

profile for roof falls under the last paragraph of "H".It is characterized by excellent quality, standard parameters, robust structure.It has additional facets stiffness.Its height of waves for optimal roof roofing.
small load can withstand the metal profile by "NA" category.
«H» material model is considered as an expensive option.Its main advantage - a long period of use.Other.It can be operated under high pressure (does not require frequent steps crates).
«NA" - corrugated board used for roofs with a steep slope.It is a thin material and not expensive for the price.

Characteristics of metal sheets of different categories

process of fixing metal sheets with his hands

Installation of the roof has a sequence, as it consists of certain layers of flooring.Before all the fixings is to determine the dimensions of the profile and its quantity.Consider
order:

  1. Make a measurement area of ​​the roof structure.It is necessary to determine the length of rays, the diagonal in meters and lathing.When deriving the final results should take into account a possible error on the overlap and the ridge of the roof eaves.A perfect match is the length of the slope and length of the profile sheet.This option eliminates the need for additional sealing compound.Initially, you need to measure the roof parameters and to determine the number of sheets
  2. sealing against water and improvement of ventilation.Metal profiles mounted only with waterproofing that protects the roof from leaks and condensation processes.The ventilation system is installed in the roof of any shape and angle.It eliminates the resulting moisture.For high-grade air is lath structure with an interval of 2 cm stacking.It is necessary to carefully consider the ventilation system
  3. Construction crates.It is the basis for fixing the metal sheets.The choice of material crates based on personal preferences, the main thing - the cross section of its parts should be the parameters of 3.2 to 10 centimeters.Lower obreshetochnaya board should have a thickness greater than the upper.

    Crate is the basis for the roof profile

    Important note: when installing on a roof chimney, roof and other openings increases the power load crates additional bars.

    Installation of the roof is carried out strictly chosen direction - from left to right, right to left.It is impossible to cover in a chaotic manner.

  4. Mounting roof.Since fixing metal sheets, the sheet is placed in the center and self-tapping screw.This step will align along the eaves.All other sheets overlap and are attached firmly fixed in the corners.Step fixing process - 55 centimeters for the horizontal type.Vertical - 30 centimeters.The initial 4 sheets attached through a stretched thread, regulating their flat location.Surface mounted to the wood sheathing.

Compliance with the rules of attachment - the key to a reliable roof

According to construction standards metalloprofilnyh roofs ice and snow breakers should be installed.They ensure the safety of the roof in the cold season.

properties of metal sheets for roofing installation

There are certain features of the process.
metal profile is fixed to the sheathing only between waves.Screws mounted on the top and bottom of the ramp.
Dobornye items are set by the combined rivets.
Self worth screwing electric screwdriver or drill.installation process should not be harsh, it is better to wield at a low speed.A few months after fastening screws are tightened.

Fixing screws

Note: Never use nails (taking into account their ability to corrode and spoil the wall holes).Measure out

profile roof also has cutting rules:

  • Cut metal profile can be reciprocating saw, scissors with sharp blades - for cross cutting.Scissors on metal - longitudinal
  • should not be used for abrasive cutting technology.They cause heating of the sheet, and the polymer surface layer of zinc and subjected to decay.This leads to corrosion

Completing the installation work is marked by cleaning the remaining scraps.Possible scratches or damage to the surface of metal sheets on the roof of a polymeric material are colored to match the color of leaves.
