Tile roof sheet is a roofing material made from rolled steel sheets. It will then go through a galvanizing or aluminum-zinc plating process and be corrugated (rolled) square or round according to usage needs.

Characteristic

Corrugated sheets are made of steel, so they are durable and resistant. In addition, this sheet is painted or galvanized with a layer of zinc on the outside, helping the sheet to resist rust from wind, rain, and heat.

Also, thanks to the zinc coating on the outside, corrugated sheets have good water resistance. Therefore, it protects and prolongs the life of the project. In addition, this paint/plating layer makes corrugated sheets more beautiful. Therefore, it meets the requirements of high aesthetics.

In addition, corrugated sheets are trusted as much as they are today because their price is quite reasonable. Compared to traditional roofing tiles, corrugated sheets are much cheaper.

Classification of popular corrugated sheets today

There are many types of corrugated sheets available on the market. They can differ by shape, texture, wave pattern, or number of waves. Specifically:

Based on wave shape

• Square corrugated sheets: They are rolled from galvanized steel coils and then stamped with square waves. These waves are even, parallel, and equal. The number of waves will depend on each type of rolling machine (stamping machine). It has a variety of colors, such as dark red, gray, blue, milky white,…

• Round corrugated sheets: The corrugated sheets of this type are round and curved. They are rolled from flat corrugated sheets of 1200 mm in width. The average thickness is from 0.30 mm (3 dem) to 0.50 mm (5 dem). They are good sound and heat insulators.

• Tile roof sheet or Wave tile roof sheet. This corrugated tile is based on the shape, size, and color of traditional tiles.

In particular, to meet market demand, manufacturers also create small corrugated iron. This corrugated iron has a much smaller wave size than conventional types (wave height is about 7–21 mm). The waves are consecutive, forming parallel ribs on the surface of the corrugated iron (the distance between the waves is usually from 90 to 125 mm). Along with that, it has good sound and heat insulation capabilities.

Based on the wave layer

As mentioned, the number of corrugated sheets depends on the type of stamping machine and the needs of the customer. Therefore, the number of corrugated sheets on a sheet of corrugated iron is not fixed. Below we will list the popular types of corrugated sheet.

Industrial corrugated sheets: Corrugated sheets used in industry are usually 5-wave and 7-wave corrugated sheets. They are often used as roofing and walls for construction and have great drainage. In which:

• Corrugated sheets with 5 waves have a sheet width of 1070mm. The distance between the waves is 250mm. The wave height is 32mm.
• Corrugated sheets with 7 waves have a sheet width of 1000mm, the distance between the waves is 166mm. The wave height is 25mm.

Civil corrugated sheets: 9-wave corrugated sheets and 11-wave corrugated sheets are commonly used in civil works today. They are often used for roofing apartments, houses, restaurants, kiosks, etc. In which:

• Corrugated sheets with 9 waves have a sheet width of 100mm. The distance between the waves is 125mm. The height of the corrugated sheet is 21mm.
• Corrugated sheets with 11 waves have a sheet width of 1070mm. The distance between 2 waves is 100mm. The height of the corrugated sheet is 18.5mm.

In addition, in civil use, 13-wave corrugated sheets are also commonly used. Its sheet width is 1200mm. The distance between the waves is 90mm. Common thicknesses are 0.8mm, 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 3mm.
