The size and styling of the roof of Ondulin

roof of Ondulin looks attractive due to its color diversity.

Ondulin known for a very long time - since the 40s of the last century, but assembling them pent, gable roofs have started recently in our country.

ondulin its name from the French word got ondulé, which translates as "wavy" or "corrugated".

So he called the company, which began producing new material for roofs roof about 70 years ago.

characteristics and properties Ondulina

Ondulin - bituminous slate, which is based on organic materials are high quality, they are impregnatedbitumen.

impregnation must be carried out at very high temperatures and pressures.If these conditions are met, the coating lifetime is durable, reliable.

Appearance Ondulina recalls or slate, or tile, it is shown in the photo.The quality of these two species are indistinguishable from one another.It differs only in size.

Slate is used for roofing, which has a simple roof structure.On pent surface mounting their own hands will be fast due to the large leaf surface Ondulina.

Tiles should choose if you want to coat the surface of a complex configuration.If a cover material of its small size, it is possible to minimize the amount of waste.

Ondulin popular due to its characteristics:

• through impregnation with bitumen, evroshifer sheets have low water absorption, even if the impact on their long-term moisture;
• with frequent temperature changes, the material does not crack, no deformation;
• ondulin does not react with the chemical and biological substances.Owing to the impregnation, the material is not exposed to alkali, acids;
• special production technology makes it possible to use the material to cover the roofs of industrial facilities, as it will not adversely affect diesel fuel, industrial oils;
• ondulin has a small weight, so to perform the installation on the roof sheets could one person in a short time.

Euroslate can be placed on the roofs of any shape, the complexity of their own hands.Often it is used to cover private homes, villas, public institutions, industrial buildings.

Beautifully will look coating on the arched ceilings, garden furniture.But for the design of the structure of fronts, ondulin hardly used.

Fences, fences, it is also not satisfied.

Experts do not recommend putting ondulin on roofs of buildings, which have to meet high requirements of fire safety: kindergartens, schools and other institutions.

Disadvantages Ondulina do not allow this:

• though material and not inclined to self-ignite, its minuses - it is flammable and flammable situation can be created;
• evroshifer surface rough.It will prevent the layer of snow to slide easily from the roof of the house.To overcome these disadvantages, Ondulin recommended to put on the roof, from which a large angle;
• color saturation through a lifetime of 2-3 years lost under the action of ultraviolet light, coloring the coating is not so bright;
• at a strong frost material becomes very fragile, and when the heat softened sheets;
• evroshifer has a lifespan of about 15 years, after this time will have to cover the roof of the new material.

How to calculate the number of Ondulina?

Preparing laying Ondulina provides a preliminary calculation of the amount of material.

evroshifer Calculate the amount to cover the roof yourself, you can, but you can use a special calculator.

This requires such a scheme: the entire surface is divided into trapezoids, triangles.After determining the area of ​​each figure, figures add up.It is important to take into account the angle of inclination of the roof.

Knowing the area, the number of sheets to calculate the right just enough to carry out the installation of the roof.

Indicators entered into the calculator is recommended taking into account the eaves.If the measurements taken at the line at home, then the result will be incorrect.Do not forget about the overlaps.

inclination angle influences them.Overlap will be greater with increasing angle.Thus, the tilt angle of 10 degrees will overlap 30 cm. If the angle increases, the overlap may reach 15-20 cm.

If Ondulina stack sheets on the uni-directional, gable roof, where the angle is small, the sheets are placed overlap with step 2 of the wave.The larger the angle of inclination - the overlap will be a wave.

The calculator figures you need to score, taking into account the overlap, then the number of sheets to be determined correctly.

Installation evroshifer roof

device Onduline roof surface with your hands similar to the laying of slate.The steps are the same, but the installation will be able to hold one person, thanks to the low weight evroshifer.

small number of sheets can be lifted onto the roof and install them.Qualitatively spend laying the material in a short time will help video instruction.

the groundworks

Cover evroshifer possible and on the old roof, if the substrate is in good condition and there are no significant deficiencies.The technique involves the installation Ondulina on any kind of roof.

step sizes crates should be 450 millimeters - this device is considered to be the standard.But sometimes you need to put a solid crate.

Her appearance has an impact angle of inclination of the roof.The materials can be used for her board, plywood.

If the roof slope from 10 to 15 degrees, the crate should be solid.When calculating Ondulina end overlap of 300 mm, and the side - 2 wave evroshifer.

angle of more than 15 degrees, does not require the formation of a continuous sheathing.The interval between the bars can be 600 mm.

dimensions overlap is 170 mm, and the side - a wave that you should definitely take into account in the calculations.

bars with your hands need to be laid, as advised by instruction videos.They are fixed to the rafters, it is important to consider the distance between the axes of the prisms of the center.

to correctly mark the position of the bars in relation to the eaves, must be a pattern or scheme, which will be listed all measurements.

When the device of metal crates, you should use self-tapping screws.All work must be done very carefully, as there is a risk to tighten the screws tight.

ondulin a result may be damaged during the operation will show up the shortcomings, and full service life will not last.

Visually technology pent device, gable roof shows video instructions.

Boxes layer of thermal insulation, vapor barrier

Before you lay ondulin, need training insulation and waterproofing.As a waterproofing material will suit any membrane permeable vapor.

This material is necessary to lay on the rafters sag should be approximately 2 cm.

When laying the membranes need to roll to roll in a direction transverse to the roof slopes.Top roll lap to go lower.

Where joints are formed, it is necessary to glue special adhesive material, which let manufacturers Ondulina.

It is most suitable for sizing the material joints, as it has similar properties with Onduline.Life cover will increase, defects are minimized.

To improve waterproofing, you can arrange Cornice box.Overhang on the ledge at the same time should be about 70 mm.

At this stage, you need to properly perform the ventilation unit to the air masses can move freely along the membrane.Thus, moisture which falls under the roof will be easily removed.

If not planned construction of the attic, the insulation, waterproofing can not be laid as ondulin be able to independently perform these functions.

Mount Ondulina

If the dimensions of the sheet material are not suitable for coating pent, gable roof, they can be carefully cut it.To do this, use a hacksaw on wood or electric saw.

Before you cut the leaves, it is necessary to apply markup, as shown on the photo.

Before mounting evroshifer should determine the direction of the wind correctly.Stacking sheets must start from the side of the roof, which is on the opposite side of the wind direction.

Attach ondulin need with nails.They pierce the bottom of a wave in the overlapping areas of one sheet to another.Fixing is to produce the intermediate boards.

nails on each sheet of material to be used about 20 pieces.

device ridge guide recommends to mount on the slope of the roofing, which is opposite the direction of the wind.It is fixed on the inner crests additional bars.If

between the ridge and the sheet Ondulina there are gaps, they can additionally be filled with a special filling.

Installation of the roof joint with his hands to the vertical wall should be carried out with great care.

necessary to strictly adhere to the instructions to the quality of work was high.Otherwise, the operation will get wet.

compounds of the walls and roof need to hide ondulin and junction enhance waterproofing and secure fastening material.
