Dry hanging process
This process is primarily used for wooden structural roofs and semi-cement roofs.
Construction Steps:
1. Clean the roof. The roof must be thoroughly cleaned, dried, and spotless before laying tiles.
2. Waterproofing Treatment. Apply self-adhesive waterproofing materials to the roof surface. Such materials are compatible with SBS or APP.
Bitumen.
3. First, mark the corresponding rafter and rafter positions according to the tile specifications (cut the tiles as much as possible).
Adjust to effective size), then hang the batten over the roof tiles using rivets and secure with galvanized nails.
Nails the shingles onto the batten. (If battens are not used, the shingle strips can be nailed directly onto the roof.)
Suggestion:
A. If there are eaves channels, the hanging tile strips should be nailed to both sides of the channels.
B. If there is a ridge, the shingles should be fastened along the edge of the roof.
4. Install the main tiles. Secure the main tiles in place using galvanized tile nails, from bottom to top, starting from the left side batten.
The sequence of shingles on the right side.
Suggestion:
A. If gutters are present, they should be installed first.
B. When the first row of tiles is installed on the eaves, the main tiles should extend 6 centimeters beyond the eaves.
C. In areas subject to strong winds at the top, secure the tiles after nailing the head tiles with safety nails and fasten them to the hanger
The tiles are fixed on the batten using stainless steel wire through the head nails.
5. Install ridge shingles. Apply mortar to the ridge lath, lay the ridge shingles over the mortar, then let the mortar set.
The joint is filled with adhesive or mortar.
Suggestion:
The ridge tiles can also be laid on the ridge tile strips using galvanized tile nails.
6. Install eave tiles, fill the eave boards with mortar, then cut the eave stone in place, and finally use glue or mortar.
Grout fills the gaps in the mortar.
Suggestion: The ridge cap can also be fastened to the eave board using galvanized roofing nails.
Wet process is used for concrete roofing.
Apply a 20mm thick 1:2:5 mortar on the concrete roof, leaving a space 200mm wide and 20mm deep in the eaves channel.
2. Waterproofing layers can be laid on dry substrates with elastic waterproof coverings or used to install rigid waterproofing on slopes (waterproof admixtures are added to cement mortar during leveling).
Prevent leakage phenomena caused by substandard engineering work.
3. According to the actual tile size: As shown in Figure 1, pop out a honeycomb line on the baseline with 900-degree horizontal and vertical intersections. Prepare for tiling, and the tiles at the eaves should extend out by 50-70mm.
4. Tiles are laid with cement mortar, adhered in a specific order along the bottom of the channel, and secured with steel nails to prevent slippage on steep slopes.
