EXECUTION INSTALLATION

Protection General: Keep the roofing and rainwater system free of debris and loose material during construction, and leave them clean and unobstructed on completion. Repair damage to the roofing and rainwater system. Touch up: If it is necessary to touch up minor damage to prepainted metal roofing, do not overspray onto undamaged surfaces. Thermal movement Provide for thermal movement in the roof installation and the structure, including movement in joints and fastenings. Pan type sheets Removal: Capable of being de-indexed and removed without damage. Curved corrugated sheet General: Form by rolling from material recommended for curving or bullnosing. Minimise crimping or creasing across the face of the sheet. Trim off crimped or creased edges and ends. Metal separation Prevent direct contact between incompatible metals, and between green hardwood or chemically treated timber and aluminium or coated steel, by either: - Applying an anti-corrosion, low moisture transmission coating to contact surfaces. - Inserting a separation layer. Tolerances Conform to the Tolerances table. Tolerances table Property Tolerance criteria: Permitted deviation (mm) Spacing of supporting members 5 mm on the nominated support member spacing Vertical or horizontal misalignment at the abutting 2 mm ends of sheets Tops of supporting members in a plane parallel to 7 mm smooth deviation per metre length of the nominated roof slope supporting member .3.2 SAFETY MESH

Standard General: To AS/NZS 4389. .3.3 SHEET METAL ROOFING

Accessories: Provide material with the same finish as roofing sheets. Expansion joints: Refer to drawings .3.4 BUILDING ELEMENTS

0421 ROOFING COMBINED

Ridges and eaves Treat ends of sheets as follows: - Project sheets 50 mm into gutters. - Close off ribs at bottom of sheets using mechanical means or with purpose-made fillers or end caps for birdproofing. - Turn pans of sheets up at tops and down into gutters by mechanical means. - Provide pre-cut notched eaves flashing and birdproofing where necessary. - Close off ridges with purpose-made ridge fillers of closed cell polyethylene. Ridge and barge capping Finish off along ridge and verge lines with purpose-made ridge capping or barge rolls. Sprung curved ridge Lay the roof in single lengths from eaves to eaves by naturally curving the sheets over the ridge. End laps General: Where end laps are unavoidable, and the sheet profile is not suitable for interlocking or contact end laps, construct a stepped type lap. .3.5 ROOF PLUMBING

Jointing sheet metal rainwater goods Butt joints: Make joints over a backing strip of the same material. Soldered joints: Do not solder aluminium or aluminium/zinc-coated steel. Sealing: Seal fasteners and mechanically fastened joints. Fill the holes of blind rivets with silicone sealant. Flashings and cappings Flashing material: To AS/NZS 2904. Type: Colorbond or Zincalume as noted on drawings No Decktite flashings to be used Installation: Flash roof junctions, upstands, abutments and projections through the roof. Preform to required shapes where possible. Notch, scribe, flute and dress down as necessary to follow the profile of adjacent surfaces. Mitre angles and lap joints 150 mm in running lengths. Provide matching expansion joints at 6 m maximum intervals. Upstands: Flash projections above or through the roof with two part flashings, consisting of a base flashing and a cover flashing, with at least 100 mm vertical overlap. Provide for independent movement between the roof and the projection. Wall abutments: Provide overflashings where roofs abut walls, stepped to the roof slope in masonry and planked cladding, otherwise raking. - In masonry: Build into the full width of the outer leaf. Turn up within cavity, sloping inward across the cavity and fixed to or built in to the inner leaf at least 75 mm above. - In concrete: Turn 25 mm into joints or grooves, wedge at 200 mm centres with compatible material and point up. Fixing to masonry or concrete: Step in courses to the roof slope. Interleave with damp proof course, if any. Fixing to pipes: Solder, or seal with neutral cured silicone rubber and either of the following: - Secure with a clamping ring. - Provide a proprietary flexible clamping shoe with attached metal surround flashing. Gutters General: Prefabricate box gutters. Form stop ends, downpipe nozzles, bends and returns. Dress downpipe nozzles into outlets. Provide overflows to prevent back-flooding. Gutter and sump support: Provide framing and lining to support valley gutters, box gutters and sumps. Line the whole area under the gutters and sumps.

Gratings: Provide removable gratings over rainwater heads and sumps: Expansion joints: Provide expansion joints in guttering longer than 30 m: Matching fascia/barge: Where the selected eaves gutter is a proprietary high front pattern forming part of a combined system of gutter, fascia and barge, provide the matching proprietary fascias and barge cappings to roof verges and edges. Downpipes General: Prefabricate downpipes to the required section and shape where possible. Connect heads to gutter outlets and, if applicable, connect feet to rainwater drains. Access cover: Provide a removable watertight access cover at the foot of each downpipe stack. Downpipe support: Provide supports and fixings for downpipes. Sound insulation: Mineral fibre pipe insulation 50 mm thick, spirally bound on with 1.5 mm wire at 150 mm pitch.
