What sizes are sheets of metal roofing. Roof sheet size

The dimensions of a metal tile sheet are the most important parameter that must be taken into account when calculating the roof of a structure. At the same time, the dimensions mean not only the dimensions of the profiled sheet, but also other material parameters that directly affect the consumption of metal tiles, ease of installation and reliability. roofing.

Sizes of metal tiles for roofing

This roofing material, which visually imitates a classic tile coating, is made of rolled steel using special equipment that forms a specific profile.

The release of the product is carried out by both large manufacturers who strictly monitor the compliance of products with standard sizes, and small companies using inexpensive used equipment. Thus, metal tiles are presented on the market, the dimensions of which vary within certain limits, and products from different manufacturers may not “join” with each other, which should be taken into account when buying.

Table. Dimensions of sheets of metal tiles of well-known manufacturers

The variation in dimensions makes it relevant to carefully study all the overall characteristics, which include:

length and width of sheets;
useful width and length;
profile height (waves);
step between waves.

Basic sheet dimensions

Actual and usable material width

The actual width varies slightly, since cold-rolled galvanized steel, which is used for the manufacture of metal tiles, is produced worldwide using standard rolled metal technology on similar equipment.

Thus, the width of the sheet is from 1115 mm to 1190 mm, standard the size is considered to be 1180 mm. Such a width range is allowed by Russian GOST, which is less demanding on the dimensions of materials, in contrast to the international ISO standard.

When calculating the roof, the most important material parameter is the useful (working) width of the sheet material. In most cases, this figure is 1100 mm.

Sheet metal dimensions

The difference between the actual and useful width is determined by the amount of overlap. Sheet material must be mounted with an overlap of the upper element on the lower one. This laying technology allows you to create a sealed coating that does not allow moisture to pass through, as well as increase the strength of the flooring, its resistance to snow and wind loads.

The standard vertical overlap between rows is 60-80 mm, provided that the angle of inclination pitched roof is over 15 degrees. If the slope is more gentle, the overlap size reaches 100-120 mm, which reduces the working area of the sheet and should be taken into account when calculating material consumption.

Metal sheet length

The size of the metal tile affects the ease of installation of the roofing deck. The number of transverse joints of elements depends on such a parameter as length. Manufacturers offer elements of various sizes, the standard sheet length varies from 400 mm to 3650 mm.

The most reliable metal roofing is mounted from sheets, the length of which corresponds to the length of the slope. In addition, it minimizes the amount of waste roofing material, as well as the number of fasteners used, thereby saving the construction budget.

Sheets with a length of about 6000 mm can be ordered from local manufacturers, the maximum length reaches 8000 mm. However, the use of lengths over 4500 mm is associated with a number of difficulties:

the transportation of material to the place of use becomes more complicated;
it is possible to damage the decoration of the walls of the building when lifting the sheets to a height;
the risk of mechanical damage to the roofing material or its deformation under its own weight increases during transportation and lifting of sheets to the roof.

Proper lifting of material on the roof

If the roofing is planned to be mounted from sheets that will have to be joined along the length, it is necessary to calculate the working length of the sheet. The useful length of the sheet depends on the wavelength of the material, since the overlap is performed in one wave.

It is cost-effective and convenient to order the manufacturer to cut the metal tile along the length of the slope, only if the sheet length is about 4000 mm.

Profile height and wave pitch

When evaluating the dimensions of a metal tile, one should not forget about such characteristics as profile height and wave pitch.

The wave height depends on the manufacturer and model of the material. This parameter can be from 12 mm to 80 mm. On this basis, it is conditionally possible to distinguish three classes:

economy - 12-28 mm;
medium - 30-50 mm;
elite - 50-80 mm.

Roofing with a pronounced relief (wave height of more than 50 mm) not only looks more impressive. It is more reliable in operation, as it is able to hold and direct turbulent streams of water during downpours accompanied by hurricane winds.

Metal tile with a pronounced relief

The wave pitch is the distance between adjacent upper points of the profiled sheet. The optimal wave pitch is 183-185 mm long. Such a profile has sufficient rigidity to withstand normal functional loads (gusts of wind, snow cover, the weight of people carrying out repair or maintenance work on the roof).

A longer pitch reduces sheet stiffness. Plus, its working length decreases, which is important if the roofing is mounted from a large number short sheets.

When buying, pay attention to the accuracy and accuracy of profile stamping. If the material is made on worn-out equipment, the waves of the metal tile will not fit snugly against each other, which will reduce the reliability and functionality of the roof. For the same reason, material from one manufacturer should be used for the installation of the coating.

Sheet material thickness

The thickness of the metal tile is an important indicator on which the strength of the roofing depends, its durability and ability to withstand loads.

On average, the thickness of the galvanized steel sheet from which the metal tile is made is 0.4-0.6 mm - most manufacturers adhere to this standard. Some manufacturers use rolled steel less than 0.4 mm or more than 0.6 mm for manufacturing.

When choosing a roofing material, it is important to know the following:

if the thickness of the steel sheet is 0.35-0.4 mm, such material is prone to deformation during transportation, storage, installation, operation of the roof. Steel of small thickness is more quickly damaged by corrosion, and the service life of such a roof is limited, especially if the manufacturer has saved not only on the thickness of the metal, but also on the quality of the decorative and protective coating;
rolled steel with a thickness of 0.45-0.6 mm makes it possible to manufacture high-quality metal tile, with a warranty period of 13-15 years. This best option for private developers who select roofing material in terms of price and quality;
a metal tile made of steel sheet with a thickness of 0.7-0.8 mm is strong and reliable, but its use increases the load on the truss system by almost two times compared to the standard version. In addition, such material is noticeably more expensive and more difficult to install, which will increase the final cost of roofing.

Composite layers of metal tiles

The actual thickness of a metal tile sheet is somewhat greater than the thickness of the galvanized rolled steel from which it is made, since the roofing material is supplied with a polymeric protective and decorative coating. The thickness and quality of the coating also affect the performance properties of metal tiles - the thicker the protective layer and more resistant to mechanical stress, the more expensive the product.

Quality products are distinguished by the same thickness of the outer protective layer over the entire surface of the material.

The influence of dimensions on the weight of the material

The weight of a metal tile for a roof directly depends on its dimensions, primarily on the length of the sheet and the thickness of the metal from which it is made. Ultimately, this affects the magnitude of the loads experienced by the truss system, building construction and the foundation of the building. The weight of the roof covering must be taken into account when calculating the roof at the design stage of the house.

At the same time, metal tiles are roofing materials with a relatively low specific gravity and are successfully used for the reconstruction of slate and ruberoid roofs.

It is important to estimate the weight and dimensions of a metal tile in advance, first of all, for private developers who perform roofing work on their own. +4 depends on the sheet size

Advantages of a metal tile:

When installing canvases, fewer seams are obtained, which additionally gives strength to the roof structure.
Sufficiently sealed material, does not require special care.
The light weight of the metal tile allows you to save on construction truss system.
Sufficiently large size of the material, thanks to which you can cope with the installation in a short time.
At correct installation, less waste comes out than, for example, with slate.
Roofing from a metal tile gives aesthetics to any structure.

Dimensions of metal tiles

Metal tiles come in a variety of sizes, while distinguishing the useful length and width, and according to this, the working area of \u200b\u200bmetal tiles. To determine the entire length of the metal tile, you need to measure the distance from one edge to the other. The full width is measured in the same way, which does not have such a huge difference in size as the length.

The length of the canvas can have a different value from 40 cm to 800 cm. Width from 116 cm to 119 cm. It is necessary to use the material based on the parameters of the roof, experts recommend - do not choose too large panels for self-construction. For example, it is difficult to lift a six-eight-meter sheet up, besides, you can peel off both the walls and the canvas itself.

The thickness of the web varies from 0.45 to 0.55 mm, while you should not trust what is written on the package, when buying, measure the actual thickness of the sheet with a micrometer.

How to calculate

The amount of material is calculated according to the standard scheme. The area of one slope is calculated, and then summed up for the rest of the number of segments. For example, on pitched roof the length and width of the slope are measured, with all available roof structures, multiplying, we calculate the total area. The next step is to calculate the overlap of an individual canvas, and the total value of the edge of the overhang.

The overlap can reach up to 200 mm, and will not be included in the useful area, we reveal it in order to find out the useful area of \u200b\u200bthe sheet. Having calculated what size the overhang area will be, you add it to the total roof area. Everything is simple.

It all depends on what material you will use. The waves on the material come in different sizes, but in any case, you can calculate the useful dimensions of any sheet, and overhangs do not present problems with calculations. This method implies that you have already decided what material you will install, and it remains only to calculate the number of sheets required.

No organization will undertake the installation of metal tiles until it has made all the required calculations.

In fact, more complex structure it is more difficult to calculate, but interestingly, the theoretical calculation with the actual result in this case has a larger percentage of the difference. Therefore, it is always better to take the material with some margin.

So, the main thing you need to know before calculating the amount of material:

Calculate the area of all slopes.
Calculate the area of the overhangs.
Calculate the useful dimensions of each canvas.

Calculation examples

Having done all the above calculations, and knowing useful value sheet, roof area, you can begin to calculate the required sheets of metal tiles. In fact, everything is simple:

to the overall result of the roof we immediately add the value of the area of \u200b\u200boverhangs;
we divide the result obtained by the value of the usable area of \u200b\u200bthe canvas, and thus, we get the number of required sheets.

Take, for example, 100 sq. m. plus the value of the edge of the overhang - 5 square meters. m. We take the working value of one sheet - 5 square meters. m, it turns out 105 must be divided by 5 and it turns out \u003d 21 sheets of metal tiles are required per 100 square meters. m. roof.

Second example.

See the picture below, we have all the dimensions to calculate the right amount of material to cover the roof of this house. As an example, let's take a standard canvas with a size of 3620 × 1160 mm, this format is often used. After summing up all the values: two slopes, a veranda, we will find out the total area. The house in the figure has - 123 sq. m.

How many canvases will be required for this building? We have a format of 3620 × 1160 mm, for which we first need to calculate the usable area. Let's take the wave width - this is 60 mm to subtract. Next, you need to identify the dimensions that will go to the end overlaps. Here, usually more is taken away than in width, this is from 100 to 150 mm. We will take 100 mm, I think ten cm is enough for an overlap.

Now, from the length of the canvas 3620 mm, we subtract the taken value of the overlap - 100 mm, we get - 3520 mm of the working length. Then we subtract the wave width of 60 mm from 1160, we get the working width - 1100 mm. Our useful canvas dimensions turned out to be 3520 × 1100 mm. In centimeters, you get 38720 square meters. cm. We bring it to a meter value, and round it up, which is necessary to bring the correct calculation.

Experts recommend rounding up. Using the calculator and rounding, in our example, in the meter equivalent, the size of one sheet will be 3.9 square meters. m. The value of the roof remains 123 square meters. m. divided by the working value of the canvas 3, 9 square meters. m. We enter the numbers in the calculator, we get the number - 31.53846153846154. It turns out that in order to cover this house, we need to purchase 31 and a half sheets with a size of 3620 × 1160 mm, if you do not round the number - 31.7 pieces.

How to reduce waste

There is probably only one way to solve this problem. As you know, all canvases are produced by manufacturers of a certain size, but there are companies that cut sheets to a given size.

You can accurately measure and place an order, which will also be covered with a protective top layer at the cut points. In this case, you can lay even 8 meter panels, with the calls of a specialist who will cut everything on the spot.

This method will significantly reduce waste, and thanks to the professional actions of specialists, you can not worry about lowering the performance of the roofing.

The disadvantages of this method include the following points:

canvases over 5 meters long are more difficult to transport and store, unlike ordinary ones;
a metal tile of this length is also difficult to install and lift;
cost will be slightly more than self-assembly, because you will have to pay for an additional service.

Estimated cost of metal roofing

In the vast expanses of Russia, the cost of any product can vary significantly, metal tiles are no exception. The difference in the cost of the product does not depend on the region, but is primarily determined by the quality of the product and the brand of the manufacturer.

For example, in Moscow, for the popular brands of metal tiles Monterey, Supermonterey and Maxi, the cost is equal to today - 250 rubles per sq. meter. But in Novosibirsk, the same brands will cost you a little more - 260 rubles, but with delivery, which is also important. It can be concluded that the price of the product is almost the same in Siberia and in the capital, but taking into account delivery in Novosibirsk, it is a little more profitable.

Lesson check! Suppose it turns out, according to the above example, at 100 sq. m. of the roof you will need to purchase canvases, approximately 5250 rubles. Do you still think so? Do not forget that you need to find out the dimensions of the canvas, and calculate the usable area.

Advice! Buy a medium size product. On short sheets, it will turn out to be of little use, therefore, more material will be needed, which means more money.

A long metal tile is more economical in terms of waste reduction, but inconvenient to install. Recommended size for self construction 3620×1160 mm or 2220×1160 mm, but the number of waves may vary. The store consultant can tell you the exact number of materials required, provided you know the coverage area. Now you need to do the calculation of additional fittings.

Additional elements

Calculation of additional fittings

For a complete installation, additional fittings, the so-called additional elements, are required. Such details can be purchased both additionally and complete with a metal tile. First of all, they are necessary for the reliability of the roof, in especially unreliable places, and only then they can be considered as part of the scenery.

An element can be bought on average - 200 rubles per linear meter. But we need to think about what we need and why, and also calculate how much it will cost if we have to buy.

So, consider, we need:

Ridge, end strips, which will protect against atmospheric phenomena - rain, wind, and an adjoining strip - for additional sealing of various joints, for example, a chimney. And this is only the most necessary, there are other additional details, and they are especially necessary if the roof system is complex, multi-pitched.
Snow barrier - to protect the drain from the sudden collapse of snow, eaves plank- protects against dust and dirt getting under the ridge. We will now consider how to calculate the most necessary components, and then, based on the calculations, you will finally decide what to purchase. To calculate the number of accessories you need:
- measure the length of the ridge, everything will depend on what size the slats will be, since it takes 10 cm for the joints, the standard ridge is 2 meters, for example, if the ridge is 6 m long, then you will need to buy 4 slats, which is 800 rubles;
- end strips are produced in different lengths, and are mounted on end slopes, it is calculated in a similar way, that is, taking into account that 10 cm should go to the joints;
- junction bar - calculated according to the principle described above.

In addition, self-tapping screws are needed, their cost varies from 3 to 7 rubles apiece. After calculations, you can think about color, if you want your house to stand out and be visible from afar, then choose any bright color. Qualitatively made tiles do not fade in the sun and do not lose their qualities, and you can not worry that over time your roof will lose its original appearance.

Metal tile is a modern roofing material, which is cold-formed sheets of aluminum, copper or, most often, galvanized steel, imitating ceramic tiles in texture.

To protect against the harmful effects of atmospheric phenomena, the sheets are covered layer of polymeric materials.

Every year the volume of sales of metal tiles is growing, it is increasingly used in both municipal and individual construction projects.

Let's try to understand the reasons for such popularity, varieties and features of the use of this material. In this article you find out the size of a sheet of metal roofing and other technical specifications.

When talking about the geometric dimensions of the sheet, they mean three parameters: width, length and thickness. And now consider GOST metal tiles.

So, dimensions metal tiles for roofing:

Width — 116-119 cm, the working width of the metal tile is about 110 cm;
The length of a metal tile sheet is from 50 to 900 cm;
Thickness metal tiles varies depending on the type from 0.4 to 0.6 cm.

The width of a metal tile for a roof of any kind, grades and lengths, as a rule, is in the range from 116 to 119 cm. It is very easy to explain - the manufacturer ties the width of the metal tile sheet to the width of the raw material, which, in this case, is a sheet of metal.

The metal tile sheet is formed at the rolling mills of metallurgical enterprises, where unified equipment with standard roll sizes is used.

Much more variety can be found by looking at the list of possible lengths. Rolled metal entering the factories for the production of metal tiles may have length up to 9 meters This reduces shipping and handling costs. Of course, the installation of a roof from sheets of this size would be extremely difficult.

Therefore, the sheets that go on sale are much shorter. The length of the metal tile is set by the manufacturer and can be arbitrary, but most often one of the standard sheet sizes is used (all sizes are plus or minus 3 cm):

ultra-small - 50 cm;
small - 120 cm;
medium - 225 cm;
large - 360 cm;
very large - 450 cm.

Many firms also provide cutting services sheets in length according to the needs of the customer. One of the most popular types of metal tiles today is.

Metal profile: metal tile dimensions

The thickness of a metal tile is usually understood as the thickness of its metal layer. If the previous two indicators characterized exclusively ease of installation, then the thickness of the metal tile for the roof is also operating parameter.

It should provide an optimal balance between the reliability of the structure and its weight. This condition corresponds sheet thickness in 0.5 mm, it is also the most common. Metal tiles of smaller thicknesses are used in small auxiliary structures, large ones - in the case of a roof of a sparse frame of a large area and subject to high strength of the bearing walls.

Metal tile wave height and sheet profile

wave metal tiles call a vertical line consisting of conditional cells, and wave sizes are the distances between the centers of adjacent cells of two waves (step) and the distance from the lower to the upper point of one cell (height).

Most manufacturers use one of two standard wave steps - 185 mm or 350 mm.

Wave Size metal roofing is within:

from 20 to 30 mm - small standard height;
from 30 to 50 mm - average standard height;
from 50 to 70 mm - a large height (usually - only in expensive varieties).

A sheet profile is understood as a characteristic pattern formed by wave cells, a certain unique pattern. The profile is developed by the design department of the manufacturer and can be absolutely anything. The only requirement to the profile of the metal tile coating - compliance with your aesthetic views.

Advantages and disadvantages

To the main advantages of metal tiles can be attributed:

relatively small price;
big life time;
small specific weight;
stamina to the effects of atmospheric phenomena;
attractive appearance ;
fire department safety.

The low cost of a roof is most clearly manifested in comparison with its main historical competitor - ceramic tiles. The mechanization of production, the possibility of simultaneous operation of a large number of production lines and the availability of the materials and technologies used make metal tiles a low-cost material to manufacture.

And considering reliability finished product, strength and impact resistance, it is obvious that in the ratio of cost to service life, metal tiles leave all other roofing materials far behind.

But just the appearance is often a stumbling block for people who are thinking about purchasing roofing materials, but do not have the proper experience in this. They expect some kind of ceramic tile roof surrogate, not realizing that it has long faded into the background not only in quality but also in design.

Modern metal tiles are made symmetrically and accurately, and perfection technological processes allows you to imitate any form. So metal tiles are suitable even for projects with a distinct retro style.

In the case of fire safety, everything is more than obvious. None of the components of the metal tile is able to burn, smolder, somehow contribute to the emergence or spread of a flame.

Advantages of coverage

However, one cannot deny the obvious limitations metal tiles. These include:

material overrun during installation;
fast wear when the top layer is damaged;
relatively low sound insulation;
danger descent of snow layers.

NOTE!

The overspending of the material is explained by the fact that the size of the metal tile for the roof has fixed values, which inevitably leads to extra scraps metal tiles. This overspending is especially noticeable when covering roofs of complex shapes with many angles and bends.

It would be unfair not to notice that the same disadvantage common to almost all roofing materials, with the exception, perhaps, of ceramic tiles.

The most common type of damage to the top layer (polymer) are chips, cracks and delaminations as a result of mechanical damage, for example, during transportation, cutting a sheet or. In places where the polymer layer is broken, as a rule, corrosion occurs quickly., which is fraught with the loss of not only aesthetic properties, but also the tightness of the roof.
The sound insulation properties of the coating are a moot point. Noise isolation will be really extremely low if you mount the sheets directly to the frame. Then every drop of rain, not to mention hail, will resound under the roof. However, when using a soundproofing substrate and observing metal tiles, the soundproofing of a structure will in no way be inferior to any other type of roof.

Due to the specific shape of the leaf surface, snow layers can come off, which can be dangerous for the life and health of others. Solving this problem is very simple - just use .

Additional elements

They name the details of the roof that do not fulfill the purpose of the roofing material, but are necessary for fixing it, making joints and turns, removing additional structures, ensuring tightness, and removing excess precipitation. The main types of additional elements are:

- a profile in the form of a corner, a cornice, a semicircle or a complex shape, installed at the junction of sheets of metal on the upper ridge;
end plate- a profile in the form of a corner or a complex shape, covering the front and rear edges of the roof;
planks of external and internal corners- profiles in the form of a corner or a complex shape, designed to perform turns of the metal tile at an appropriate angle;
valley plank- a profile of a complex shape, providing the lower joint of the roof wings, as well as the removal of excess precipitation from this joint;
low tide- a profile in the form of a wide channel or a semicircle, located along the slope of the roof and performing the function of draining rainwater;
- a triangular profile that prevents the sliding of snow layers;
plugs- figured sheet metal products that provide sealing of joints of straight surfaces with surfaces of complex shape.

Additional elements

In addition, some sources indicate stairs, hatches, cornices, caps, chimneys, even insulation and self-tapping screws as additional elements. Of course, all this is necessary when installing the roof, but how to classify these positions is a moot point.

This coating is the material of the future, superior to most competitors in terms of economic, ergonomic and performance indicators. We hope that our article was useful for studying the main parameters of metal tiles, its properties and types.

Technical sheet dimensions in video format:

Metal tiles are widely used for pitched roofs of private houses and public buildings with a roof slope of more than 11-12°. The roof will protect the house from cold and rain for many years and will remain aesthetically beautiful only if right choice material sizes. In this case, the standard width and length parameters are indispensable.

Sheet width and length: important terms

Calculating the required amount, the buyer will definitely come across a number of new concepts. It is these values that will determine how many sheets are needed, what length and width they should be:

Important: overlaps along the length or width protect the roof from leaks, so these two dimensions must be strictly observed during installation work.

The thickness of the sheet is calculated depending on the type of truss system and the entire structure. Thick sheets are easier to work with, they last longer, but they turn out to be a greater load on bearing walls. Thin sheets with improper installation can be deformed, but such a roof is much easier.

Wave height and step between waves. The step in the case of a metal tile is a standard indicator - 185 mm. Wave height from 50 to 70 mm. The higher the height, the better, but the material itself is also more expensive. The material with a large height has a high rigidity, and therefore more durable.

What are the sizes of metal tiles? Sheet material of different companies may differ in many ways. An example table is shown below.

The dimensions of a metal tile sheet strictly depend on the area of the roof. It is from the results obtained that the most optimal length option is supported. In the case when the roof has a complex shape, the size of the sheets can be adjusted - the excess is simply cut off. Cutting is carried out exclusively professional equipment intended for these purposes. Otherwise, corrosion at the cut points cannot be avoided.

Important: metal roof tiles - the material is not symmetrical, each sheet has its own top and bottom. This feature significantly complicates the installation process, especially for a broken roof, since it will not work to turn the sheets of metal tiles on the roof.

Additional elements

The parameters of the additional elements, as well as the dimensions of the metal tile for the roof, can be of different sizes. Their parameters are calculated as follows:

The elements covering the ridge and located at the joints of the ribs are calculated according to the following formula: the total length of the ridge with ribs + 8-9% (overlap).

The lower endova, located at the junction of the inner slopes of the edges, is calculated by the formula: the length of the edges (converging) + 10% (overlap).

The cornice strip, passing along the entire contour of the cornice part, is equal to the length of the cornice contour.

The end strip is equal to the sum of the lengths of all the ends of the roof.

The sealing strip installed at the junction of the skates is taken with a 10% margin.

Main technical parameters

Considering such a question as the size of a sheet of metal for a roof, you first need to decide what parameters are important for the consumer. Experts distinguish the following:

lenght and width;

thickness;

overlap;

wave geometry.

Almost all geometric dimensions, except for thickness, have a direct impact on the most important parameter of the product from the point of view of costs - the usable area. This size of metal roof tiles allows you to determine the required number of sheets. The thickness of the sheets determines the requirements for load-bearing structures and the strength capabilities of the material. The thicker the sheet, the more massive the supporting structures should be, but at the same time the roof can withstand heavy loads and be used longer. This is especially important for regions with high winter rainfall.

Lenght and width

When choosing the size of a metal tile for a roof, length and width are the first things they pay attention to. It is they who most affect the useful area of \u200b\u200bmetal sheets.

According to GOST, the length can be from 50 to 900 cm. However, products of great length are rarely used directly in construction, they are purchased for cutting sheets of the desired length. According to the length, the metal tile is classified into the following groups:

midget- 50 cm;

small- 120 cm;

average- 225 cm;

big- 360 cm;

extra large- 450 cm.

Virtually everything on the market today building materials roofing products have a length approximately equal to the above figures. For different manufacturers, it may vary slightly (in the range of plus / minus 3 cm). Also, a number of companies selling metal tiles offer the service of cutting sheets of a certain length required by a particular customer. Experts consider the use of sheets 4 meters long to be the optimal solution in terms of economy and labor costs for transportation, storage and installation.

The total width of the metal tile for the roof is from 116 to 119 cm, while the working width of the metal tile for the roof is 110 cm. Such a small variation in the width of the sheets is due to the peculiarities of the manufacture of the profiled product. Sheets are obtained at rolling mills, which in turn have standard sizes rolls.

Height, pitch and wavelength

The wave step is the shortest distance between the two highest crests of neighboring waves, and its height is the distance from the lower point of the wave to the upper one on the crest (along a conditional perpendicular line). As a rule, manufacturers offer metal roof tiles with a wave pitch of 185 mm or 350 mm. According to the wave height of the product, roofing metal is divided into the following products:

With small typical wave height - from 20 to 30 mm;

middle typical wave height - from 30 to 50 mm;

big typical wave height - from 50 to 70 mm.

In addition, the sheets are not just wavy, but stepped. The usual length of steps is 35 cm, height - 15 mm.

Thickness

The thickness of a metal tile is not the thickness of the product as a whole, but of its metal base. This indicator directly affects the performance properties of a roof made of metal sheets. Most of the products have a thickness of 0.4 to 0.6 mm. If it is less, then this indicates the manufacturer's excessive savings and it is better not to purchase such products.

The best option for residential buildings in terms of cost / quality ratio is metal tiles with a thickness of 0.5 mm, for utility buildings - from 0.4 to 0.5 mm. Metal products with a base thickness of 0.6 to 0.8 mm usually belong to the premium segment and are more expensive. The total thickness of the product depends on the thickness of the decorative and protective layers that cover the metal.

overlap

To prevent leaks from rain or snow, sheets of metal tiles are laid on the roof not in a joint with edges, but with an overlap. If we take away the overlap, then we can determine the useful area of the sheet on a metal base. The total overlap in the longitudinal direction is usually from 10 to 15 centimeters, in width it reduces the width of the sheet to 110 centimeters.

The relationship of size with constructive and financial capabilities

Due to the fact that the width of the sheets is practically the same for all such products, when choosing products, it is necessary to build on their length and thickness:

the longer and thicker the sheet, the more massive the supporting structure is needed for their installation;

the more weight square meter roofing sheet, the longer it will last and the less risk of damage to the roof under the influence of snow and ice;

fewer sheets with the same roof area, a simple shape will save on installation costs, provided that special equipment is not required to lift too large sheets;

if the shape of the roof is complex, then the length of the elements should allow it to be arranged without unnecessary waste (it may be necessary to purchase sheets of different lengths).
