C.WORK SPECIFICATIONS

1. Handling

The metal roofing sheets are unloaded onto an even platform. The piles must be off theground, and there must be transverse supports at intervals of 1 m. Steel Tile Sheets must beremoved from the piles by lifting, not by pulling. The sharp end of a sheet will damage thecoating of the sheet beneath when pulled. Thin metal sheets are subject to dents and creasesso handle them with care. Tile-patterned profiles are subject to stretching, which hampersinstallation. They must not be lifted by pulling them from the end, but must be moved to theroof using ridge planks or lifting them into a vertical position from several points at their edges.Stains can be removed using a neutral detergent.

2. Preparation for roof installation

Metal Tile roof Sheets must be lifted onto the roof from the ground along strong planksreaching up to the cornice. Avoid handling the sheets in windy weather. The wind will easilytake hold of the broad, flat sheets. Any necessary cutting can best be done using a nibbling



machine, tin snips, electric shearers or contour saw. A metal grinder must not be used, becausethe cutting and the shards that it produces can damage the surface of the sheet. The edges andcorners of the sheet are very sharp and, after cutting, very jagged. Use mittens and protectiveclothing. The roofing sheets can be slippery, especially when they are wet and/or icy. When

working on the roof, always use a safety rope and appropriate footwear. Use scaffolding andladder that is of sufficient height and at a suitable working distance. When moving the piles ofroofing sheets, always ensure that the lifting equipment is firm and strong. Do not go beneath asuspended pile or suspended roof sheet.

3. Sheathing

Layout the roofing sheets in a manner that the side overlap faces away from the prevailingwind. Installation of the Metal Tile roofing sheets always starts, at the end on ridge roofs , andat the hip point on hip roofs. The capillary groove at the edge of the boards always goes down.Installation must start from the right bottom end. Install the sheets in straight lines down to thelower cornice, with an overhang of about 50 – 85 mm. Put the first sheet in position and attachit to the ridge with one screw. After that, fit the roofing sheets firstly from the side seam,carefully checking that they are the same size. Attach the sheets to each other with roofingscrews from the ridge, with a maximum distance between the screws of 300 mm (every secondpan or rib). Fit three or four profile sheets in this way. Carefully align the 3-4 sheets that hasbeen laid according to the position of the lower cornice. Attach the sheets to the roof boardsand continue installing. The roof sheet must overhang the fascia board by about 50 mm.

The part of the roof under the roof valley flashing must be completely boarded. The roof valleyflashings must overlap by at least 150 mm. The seams must also be sealed with sealingcompound. Profile-shaped roof valley sealing tape is used in between the flashing and theprofile sheets. The sealing pieces of this tape are slanted. The tape is available in both right andleft-handed forms. The flashing is fixed to the substructure with the profile sheets, either withdrilling screws at the bottom of the grooves or with nails on top of the corrugations. Theinterval in between them must be about 300 mm. On the ridge, the end of the roof valleyflashing must stretch to underneath the ridge capping and the joint must be carefully sealed.

4. Gutter-a connection of gutters shall be made by using brass rivets and fully jointed by nikolite lead.Provide a minimum of 1% slope towards the downspouts.
