Why is a crate for profiled sheeting?
Profiled sheeting is a material that reliably protects the roof not only from the effects of precipitation, but also from fungus, bacteria and, as a result, from destruction. It is the quality roofing material that will help to preserve the building for many years. In fact, the crate is a special design, made taking into account the parameters of the roof, the material for the production of which serve as different bars, metal elements.
Reliable and able to withstand heavy loads, they allow to create a good frame, on which the roofing materials will be laid. In some cases, a metal frame is fastened to the surface, to which a metal or wooden crate is screwed. Double protection makes it possible to create an incredibly strong base, which is not afraid of heavy loads.
Variety of corrugated board
Specialists distinguish several types of roofing, but in order to work well, it is necessary not only to choose the right option, but also take into account the step of the flooring for profiled sheeting. Bearing variant of corrugated board is used in the case when a strong pressure is applied to the surface.
When it comes to a large structure, in winter it is crushed by a huge mass of snow, a large area of the roof is also a huge load, which can cope with only a powerful, carefully designed structure of strong materials. Correctly matched crate for profiled will get rid of all the problems that may arise during the construction and operation of the building.
You can also often find roofing profiled sheeting, which can easily be distinguished from other options by the presence of specific waves. Such a roof is much cheaper than metal roofing, but also withstands heavy loads. Walling can be used as a material to create formwork or fences.
How to make the crate under the corrugated board?
In the beginning of work it is necessary to make a special template from plywood that will help you to orientate when installing the beams for the crate and fixing them between the first and second part of the crate with the initial beams that fit from the bottom of the roof.
At the same time, the step of the crate for the corrugated board should be about 280 millimeters, between the subsequent bars - about 350 millimeters.
Such a distance will allow to assemble the structure in a qualitative way and to prevent all unpleasant surprises. Vertical parts should be stacked at a distance of not more than 250 millimeters. Such a dense mesh will make the construction incredibly durable. Purchasing material is necessary depending on the parameters of the roof, taking into account the recommended distance from one bar to another.
So, if the roof slope parameters are 3x1.5 m, and the pitch between the horizontal bars is chosen 0.3 m, and the vertical distance is 0.25 m, then 5 bars of 3 m length and 12 bars of length of 1.5 m are required. If the solidmaterials with such parameters are not present, it is possible to fill in within one length several bars, in the sum giving the necessary length. Therefore, when traveling for materials, calculate the total length of boards or beams.
Correctly executed roof lathing for corrugated board can be fixed with a screwdriver. A reliable tool will make your work as fast as possible. Long self-tapping screws help to secure the boards and create the right structure. By installing boards in a staggered order, keeping distance, in the end, you get a dense grid, on which the roofing elements are installed.
