ROOF FINISHES METAL ROOFING CONCRETE FLAT ROOFING CONCRETE TILES ROOFING
ROOF FINISHES DEFINITION
Roof- an overhead covering of a building with its framework support. Roof finishes- an assemble of manufactured pieces of hard-wearing material on the framework support to protect internal spaces from the climatic changes. TYPES OF ROOF FINISHES
Metal Concrete Concrete tiles Fibreglass
METAL ROOFING Is a roofing system made from galvanized metal pieces or tiles. Often corrugated or otherwise shaped. Types of metal roofing materials: Corrugated galvanized steel (wrought iron/steel sheet coated with zinc) A blend of Zinc, aluminum and silicon coated steel. (Zincalume, galvalume) Metal tile sheets Stainless steel. Aluminum Copper
Advantages:
METAL ROOFING
Lightweight Portable Durable Long span construction Weather resistance Design flexibility Recyclable Energy efficiency
Disadvantages: Expensive Corrosion due to incompatible material Requires a good deal of craftsmanship Great care Regular maintenance
CONCRETE FLAT ROOFING
horizontal roofing with slight inclination (10 degrees) made from different materials and substances (asphalt built up roof (BUR), modified bitumen, Hypalon, PVC, TPO and EPDM synthetic rubber) requires continuous membrane roofing material Roof slope can be achieved by: inclining structural members or roof deck, or by tapering layer of thermal insulation Slope usually leads to interior drains/ perimeter scupper
CONCRETE FLAT ROOFING
Advantages: Flexible Affordable Durable Low maintenance Quick construction Weather resistance Disadvantages: Heavy construction Not aesthetically appealing Requires a good deal of craftsmanship Leakage
CONCRETE TILES ROOFING
Concrete roof tile is made of sand,
cement, and water.
Concrete roof tile has three main
appearances based on their profiles: Flat Profile Low Profile High Profile
Available in several different colours
and textures.
Applicable in any climatic condition. Local manufacturers- Redland,
Monier ,etc
Imported from Vietnam, Thailand
and Indonesia and Taiwan.
CONCRETE TILES ROOFING
Advantages: Variety of colours, tones and textures Affordable Durable Low maintenance Good aesthetic value Weather resistance Disadvantages: Heavy Breakable, if not properly installed Requires a good deal of craftsmanship Leakage
