Roof Cladding Profiles

Euroclad roofing profiles provide high quality, cost effective solutions, coupled with ease of installation, and lend themselves to almost any roof application. The load/span tables are provided to assist in the selection of the most suitable profile. A full range of coatings and colours are available for the trapezoidal roof profiles, but there are a number which are identified as particularly suitable for roof applications. These tend to be the lighter colours, which are less subject to fade and reduce the movement of the sheet caused by temperature changes. This is also true for vertical cladding, but the aesthetic criteria tend to take precedence with the choice of colour.

For curved eaves and ridge details, all the trapezoidal profiles can be curved and ‘barrel vault’ self curving roofs may be accommodated subject to the profile dependant on the profile type and curve radius. The length of the trapezoidal profiles are only limited by the practical problems of handling and transportation. It must be noted, however, that these limitations can be overcome if the on-site rolling capabilities of the Secret fix system (for steel), are employed.

All Euroclad profiles are handed with specific side lap details. Therefore, it is imperative that these are identified and installed correctly. Rooflights are available to match, or complement, all profiles in either translucent sheet, or barrel vault type systems.

The trapezoidal roof profiles illustrated in this section may also be used for vertical applications, however, the vertical profiles found in the Euroclad ‘Wall cladding profiles’ publication, cannot be used for roof applications. The information necessary for specifying and installing the trapezoidal profiles is available in Section F of the Euroclad ‘Design and installations recommendations’ publication.
