How much does profiled - weight 1 m2

At present, when the construction market is replete with a variety of roofing materials that match the taste of each customer, it is not difficult to find an attractive and reliable coating that combines practicality, durability and attractive appearance. An experienced choice for roofing of any size, shape and slope experienced builders believe sheeting, the main advantage of which is a small mass. The size and light weight of sheeting allows you to facilitate and simplify the roof frame of the roof, which reduces the financial costs of roofing. In this article we will tell you how much 1m2 of the profiled sheet of the main brands weighs.

Characteristics and advantages of the material

PRofnastil is an affordable, practical roofing material that is made of thin rolled steel in the form of rectangular sheets of different sizes with a trapezoidal profile, extruded into it by a special press. Он производится из оцинкованной стали с лакокрасочным или полимерным покрытием, которое повышает антикоррозийные свойства материала. Pроизводители выпускают несущий, стеновые и универсальные профилированные марки профнастила, отличающиеся толщиной, весом и выстой профиля. Крыши, покрытые этим недорогим материалом, обладают следующими преимуществами:

1. Lightweight sheeting. It weighs less than any other modern roofing coating, which reduces the cost of transportation, rafter carcass and installation of the structure. The weight of 1 m2 of profiled sheet does not exceed 8-10 kg, whereas 1 m2 of traditional ceramic tile weighs 35 kg.
2. Durability. The resistance of the material to corrosion, temperature changes, fungus and decay make profiled reliable and durable roofing coating that can withstand 15-15 years of intensive use.
3. Pрочность. Pрофилированные листы обладают высокой несущей способностью, благодаря чему выдерживают значительную снеговую нагрузку.
4. Easy installation. The standard dimensions of a sheet of material are suitable for cost-effective overlap of the roof of any area, in addition, installation is carried out without the use of special equipment or tools.

Note! The light weight of profiled sheeting allows using this durable, reliable roofing material for the reconstruction or partial repair of old slate or tile roofs without dismantling the structure over the worn surface.

Weight of main grades

Steel profiled sheet is used to perform a variety of construction tasks: roof overlap, the construction of temporary or permanent fences, fences, the construction of garages or hangars, wall cladding. Each type of professional sheet has operational and technical characteristics suitable for a particular application:

• The profiled sheet of wall marks is used for wall cladding and the construction of fences or fences. This material is made of steel 0.5-0.7 mm thick, with a profile height of 8-44 mm, with a useful area of ​​1000-1100 mm. The weight of a professional flooring of this look makes 5,4-7,4 kg / sq.m.
• Profiled with the letter "H" in the marking is called carrier, it has the greatest bearing capacity, and therefore is used for the construction of hangars, garages, shopping pavilions. For the production of this material used steel billets with a thickness of 0.7-1 mm, the wave height is 57-114 mm. The weight of the professional flooring bearing brands is more than the rest, it is 8-17 kg / m2.
• The universal professional flooring differs in the average technical characteristics suitable for performance of any kinds of works. Most often this material is used to overlap the roof. The thickness of the steel sheet used for production is 0.55-0.8 mm, the wave height does not exceed 44 mm, and the weight of 1 m2 is 6.3-9.4 kg.

Important! To calculate the roof truss framework, it is necessary to know exactly how much a square meter of roofing weighs. This data is used to calculate the total load that falls on the structure to determine the thickness, as well as the composition of its elements.

Criterias of choice

Experienced roofing masters know, the thicker the profiled sheet, the more reliable it is. Thicker material more effectively resists corrosion, withstands more intense snow and wind loads and, as a result, is operated longer. However, these brands increase the load on the roof frame and also cost more. The following factors affect the weight of a professional flooring:

1. Толщина стали. Чем толще используемая для производства материала стальная заготовка, тем тяжелее профнастил. Pоэтому несущие марки весят значительно больше стеновых.
2. Metal intensity of the alloy. The composition and characteristics of the steel affect the weight of the profiled sheet, so before you buy you need to be familiar with the quality of the metal. In order for the roof covering to be durable, it is necessary to select premium grade galvanized steel with a higher metal content of the anti-corrosion coating that weighs more.
3. Wave height The higher the wave, the greater the weight and load bearing capacity of the material. However, a high profile reduces the useful flooring area, increasing the coating consumption.

Pрофессиональные мастера утверждают, что в вопросе выбора профнастила для оборудования кровли важно соблюдать баланс достаточности и необходимости. В попытках найти наиболее долговечное и надёжное покрытие не стоит приобретать профнастил толщиной 1 мм, значительной увеличивающий вес кровельного пирога. Для перекрытия одноэтажных и хозяйственных построек они рекомендуют выбирать марки толщиной 0,5-0,6 мм, а для двухэтажных частных домов – 0,7-0,8 мм.
