Varieties of roofing materials: selection criteria

Varieties of roofing materials: selection criteria

You can buy roofing materials from both domestic production (RB) and foreign. If necessary, organize delivery to construction facilities. With large volumes of discounts! The roof is one of the most important parts of any building, both in architectural and constructively. Today, the market presents a fairly wide selection of materials that differ in varying degrees of reliability, durability, styling method, technical characteristics, etc. D. Currently, the following types of roofing materials are most widely used: floating, rolled, various types of tiles, in t. h. metal tiles, composite tiles, ceramic tiles, bitumen tiles, etc.

Paled roofing materials

Are rolled materials that are based on the unstable rotting of the canvas. Produced using modified bitumen components.

They differ in strength, water resistance, durability (service life of 10-30 years), elasticity, resistance to temperatures and deformations.

Scope: is used in various climatic areas, its application is especially justified in regions with severe weather conditions.

Manufacturers: NTC “Hydol-Knevka”, “Techno-Nicol”, COO “Roof” and others.

Rolled roofing material

They are attributed to the group of “soft roofs”. These are the panels that are rolled into rolls. Such materials are used where another material cannot be used or it is necessary to save.

Scope:

On flat industrial roofs with a small angle

For the construction of a flat roof in multi -storey construction.

Technical characteristics. The least reliable roller roof material is roofing material. Bitumen coatings are not resistant to different influences and strength.

The advantage is low price.

Manufacturers: NTC “Hydol-Knevka”, “Techno-Nicol”, COO “Roof” and others.

Roofing materials based on metal (metal tile).

Raw materials for her are galvanized steel (other metal) with a polymer composite coating of different colors. Metal tile imitates a coating made of natural tiles

Technical characteristics: resistant to corrosion, exposure to ultraviolet rays, atmospheric conditions, mechanical strength low indicators of noise absorption.

Scope. On the rocks of a simple geometric shape. Using a complex roof configuration requires a lot of time and material.

Advantages. Aesthetic appearance, ease of installation, efficiency, low weight.

Roofing materials based on ceramics, clay (ceramic tiles)

It is made of pottery clay, quartz, field spar, kaolin, mineral pigments. Technical characteristics: high level of mechanical strength of frost resistance low water absorption low thermal conductivity, vapor permeability, breathability of a small coefficient of linear temperature expansion fire resistance wide color scheme.

Scope. Suitable for buildings with roofs of any complexity.

Advantages. Very resistant to external influences. Great weight gives her good sound insulation: she does not need to be repaired and maintained at least 100 years.

Manufacturers: Meyer-Holsen, BRAAS, ERLUS, CREATON, NELSKAMP, Wienerberger.

Composite tiles

Multi -layer coating with a base of steel sheet protected by alumocycnic alloy.

Technical characteristics.

High indicators of noise insulation resistance to wind loads Extremely resistance to corrosion, ultraviolet heat resistance durability.

Advantages. Light weight, aesthetic appearance, a rich palette of colors and shapes, ease of installation

Scope. For roofs of different configurations. It is unique in the reconstruction of historical monuments and buildings, as well as to give the new buildings a unique appearance.

Manufacturers: Roser, Metrotile

Bitumen tile

Raw materials are fiberglass covered with oxidized modified bitumen. On the front side – colored mineral crumbs. On the back – an adhesive layer based on bitumen or quartz sand.

Technical characteristics: good noise absorption is not corroded and rotting, it is difficult to have a wide color palette of flowers low thermal conductivity.

Advantages. Simplicity of installation, lack of waste, small weight. economy

Scope. To cover roofs of any complexity, in t. h. both dome and onion roofs.
