Roof Liner Profiles
One if the most significant developments in steel clad buildings in the '80's was the inclusion
of a steel liner. Cost effectiveness, simplicity and
ease of installation are the sound reasons for
its popularity.
Euroclad
liner sheets, each of which have been designed
to match the cover widths of the external
profiled sheets.
The standard industry gauge for liner sheets
is 0.4mm, however, both 0.5mm and 0.7mm
gauges are also available. Should there be a
requirement for the heavier gauges, the Euroclad
Sales Office should be contacted to advise
upon availability.
The Euroclad liner sheets have been designed
to span up to 2,000mm in 0.4mm gauge
material. It should be noted that certain designs
of liner, offered by other manufacturers, which
incorporate large flat areas between pitches,
have gapped significantly between purlins.
As a result of such experiences, there has
been a tendency for architects to specify 0.7mm.
The standard colour available is referred to as ‘Bright White’, although the reference ‘S5020’ is more helpful if matching up to flashings or flat sheet. Euroclad liner sheets are available as crimped curved sections, as detailed in Section 8 of the Euroclad Cladding Manual (Curved Profiles).
Translucent sheets are available to match all Euroclad liner panels sheets, as they are for all Euroclad external profiled sheets. Euroclad liner sheets, when fixed in accordance with our recommendations, meet the requirements of the Construction Design and Management Regulations (C.D.M.).
Side Lap
Side laps are formed where the profiled edge of
one sheet overlaps the edge of the adjacent sheet.
Liner sheets are typically 0.4mm, or 0.7mm gauge.
The joint is sealed by using an external tape, which
is placed over the joint line of the cavity side of the
liner sheet.
The joint can be reinforced with stitcher screws or rivets,
which are a requirement for some firewall constructions.
The use of a good quality sealant tape, such as Polyband,
or T-foil, will produce a good quality air resistant joint.
When using an external tape, it is important to note that
stitchers will not provide an additional air-tightness,
although they can add to the longevity of the joint.
End laps
End laps are formed where the profiled edge of one sheet overlaps the edge the adjacent sheet. Liner sheets are typically 0.4mm, or 0.7mm gauge. The joint is sealed using a sealant bead, which is placed inside the overlap joint. Fixings should be installed in the trough of each profile to provide compression of the sealant bead. The use of a good quality sealant bead will produce a good quality air resistant joint.
