Fibroiite-Standard" Corrugated Sheets (3" Pitch) - Art. 75

MITRE METHOD: We recommend the mitre method of fixing, as illustrated and described on pages S and 6, which gives straight ver-tical lines, the mitre being covered and invisible when the roof is completed.

DEFINITION o r "DIRECTION OF F I X I N G " : Wherever the words "fixing from left to right" or "fixing from right to left" are used in this catalogue, they refer to the "direction of fixing" as it would appear to an observer standing at the gutter and looking up the roof slope.

IMPORTANT: Gable and Hip Roofs: For roofs of this type, where "Fibrolite" 2-Piece Fluted Ridge Capping (see page 8) is to b e used, it is imperative that the fixing of the corrugated sheets on both slopes of the roof be commenced Irom the same end of the building. Thus, one slope is fixed "right to left" and the opposite slope "left Jo right".

DRILLING HOLES IN S H E E T S : All holes in sheets should be drilled, not punched, the diameter of the hole being about 1/32" greater than that ol the screw or bolt used,

FIXING TO WOOD: For fixing to wood purlins or battens, galvanised screws (or drive screws) are used, together with curved galvanised iron washers and bituminous felt washers, as illustrated on page 6. Care should be exercised not to screw down too tightly.

For "Fibrolite" Super-Six Sheets: Use 3" X 13 gauge screws for single thicknesses.

„ 3-i" X 14 „ „ „ two

„ i " X 14 „ ., „ three „ andridging.

Alternatively, drive screws may be used.

For "Fibrolite-Standatd" Sheets: Use 2" X 12 gauge screws for single thicknesses.

„ 2 J " X 12 „ „ „ two

„ 3" X 13 „ „ „ three „ and ridging.

Alternatively, drive screws may b e used.

FIXING TO S T E E L P U R L I N S :

For fixing to steel purlins, hook bolts or bolts and clips of required dimensions are used, together with curved gal-vanised iron and bituminous felt washers, as illustrated on pages 6 and 7. Cars should b e exercised not to bolt down too tightly.

POSITION OF S H E E T S ON P U R L I N S :

In fixing sheets care should b e taken to see end laps are centred on lap purlins or battens (see Fig. 3, page 3).

P L A S T I C BITUMEN FOR S C R E W AND BOLT HOLES:

Before screwing or bolting the sheets to the purl ins , or battens, the fixings (screws or bolts) must be dipped in plastic bitumen to seal the fixing hole in the sheet. When bolts (Fig. 26, page 6, and Fig. 27, page 7) are inserted from inside the building, the plastic bitumen must b e liberally applied to the bolts beneath the iron and bituminous washers.

POSITION OF S C R E W S OR B O L T S IN S H E E T S :

In fixing "Fibrolite" Corrugated Sheets it is necessary that screws or bolts b e used in positions specified hereunder:—

"Fibrolite" Super-Six Sheets:

. (a) When fixed with 2" side lap, each sheet to be secured at each purlin, batten or girt at 1st and 5th corruga-tions, as Fig. 1, page 3.

(b) When fixed with 7" s ide lap, each sheet to b e se-cured at each purlin, batten or girt at 2nd and 5th corrugations, as Fig. 2, p a g e 3.

"Fibrolite-Standard" Sheets:

Each sheet to b e secured at each purlin, batten or girt at 2nd and 7th corrugations, as Fig. 33, page 3. On no account must sheets b e screwed or bolted through the 1st corrugation.

NOTE: Do not cut any sheets be fore carefully studying directions on pages 4, 5, and 6.

A

To avoid errors in cutting and consequent waste of material, it is advisable to prepare a template to which the sheets are cut. Taking as an example a roof to be covered with sheets fixed from "left to right", the template sheet for the mitre cuts is prepared as follows:—

Lay one sheet A on a level surface with . smooth face upward and turned-down 5 side on left. Lay a second sheet B with I- smooth face upward, tumed-down side

on left, so that the top left-hand corner f of B overlaps the bottom right-hand

corner of A, Fig. 6-

The two sheets overlap as shown at CDEF. The distance CD or FE is equal to the required side lap.

The distance CF or DE is equal to the end lap required, in this case, say, 9".

Now join the line FD and cut accurately along this line through both sheets. The sheets will then appear as in

Fig. 7. Lay sheet B over lop of sheet A, with the top and side edges in line, and using the cut corner of B as a guide, cut off the top left-hand corner of A.

H G . 6.

Sheet A will then appear as in Fig. 8, and may be used as a template for all mitre cuts required on the sheets for the sam3 side lap and 9" end lap, fixed from "left to right". The sheets for this roof slope are mitre cut by using this template to mark off both or either of the comers for cutting, as required in accordance with the fixing instructions on page 6.

NOTE: To prepare a template for the mitre cut on sheets to b e fixed "tight to left" . . . proceed as described for "left to right" fixing, but lay sheets on a level surface with smooth face upward and turned-down side on right. Lay sheet B so that its top right-hand corner overlaps the bottom left-hand corner of A.

SHEET OF , TOP COURSE !

SHEETS FIXED "LEFT-TO-RISHT" Double dotted lines indicate h o w se cond and subsequent lengths of ridging cover

mitre cuts.

This ridging must b e laid from that end of the bui lding from which the laying of the sheets was commenced .

Sheets in top course must b e kept wel l up to apex of roof to pT0vid3 maximum end lap of r idging. (See Fig. 6 above . )

MITRE CUT ON SHEETS: "Fibrolite" "Super-Six" 2-Piece Fluted Ridge Capping Art. 96 and 96a requires a mitre cut to b e m a d e on the over lapping top corner of the "Fibrolite" Super-Six corrugated roofing sheets in the top course. To mark off this mitre cut, lay in the correct position they are to take o n the roof at least two roofing sheets of the top course on each slope. Place the inner roll of a length of Fluted Ridging in position with the corrugations of w i n g meshing with the corrugations o n sheets o n that s lope of the roof which is to be f ixed "Right to Leit". The se co n d (or over lapping) roofing sheet may n o w b e marked on top right-hand corner along the sp layed e d g e of r idging in readiness for mitre cut. After cutting mitre, this sheet may b e used as a template for cutting all top course sheets on "Right to Left" s lope of roof. Next, p lace the outer roll of r idging in position over inner roll with w i n g meshing with sheets on that s lope of the roof which is f o b e Hxed "Left to Right". Mark off s e co n d (or over lapping) sheet along sp layed e d g e of r idging as before.

It will b e noted from above that all top course sheets fixed "Right to Left" (except first or starling shee-t) will require a mitre cut on over lapping or top right-hand corner, and all sheets f ixed "Left to Right" a mitre cut on over-lapping or top left-hand corner.

Mitre cut on corrugated roofing sheets fits against mitred or sp layed e d g e of Fluted Ridging.

Directions for Fixing 2-Piece Fluted Ridge Capping — Art. 60 for "ribroiite-Standard" Siieets

When this ridging is used, fixing of both s lopes of roofing sheets must b e c o m m e n c e d from same end of building. Sheets in top course must b e kept we l l u p to apex of roof to provide maximum end lap of ridging. (See Fig. 6 above . ) N o mitre cut is required on roofing sheets, as in the c a s e of " F i b r o l i t e " Super-Six 2-Piece Fluted Ridge Capping Art. 96 and 96a, but cutting of first or c o m m e n c i n g length of r idging is necessary as shown be low.
