With the advancement of new rural construction, more and more farmers have begun to choose to transform traditional roofs into synthetic resin tiles to improve the durability and beauty of the roof. However, for many rural residents, how to accurately calculate the number of resin tiles required has become a problem. Today, the editor will teach you how to calculate the amount of resin tiles for roof renovation in new rural construction.
- Calculate roof area
First, you need to accurately measure the area of your roof. This step is the basis for calculating the number of resin tiles required, usually length times width to determine the total area of the roof.
- Calculate the total cost of resin tiles
After determining the total area of the roof, the next step is to calculate the total number of resin tiles required. Divide the roof area by 0.8 (the effective width of the resin tile is 0.8 meters)
- Calculate the total quantity of resin tiles
After calculating the total number of resin tiles, you need to calculate the total number of resin tiles. This step is to divide the roof width by the effective width of the resin tile (0.8 meters), and then multiply it by 2, because resin tiles are usually laid in double layers.
- Calculate the number of ridge tiles
In addition to synthetic resin tiles, roof renovations also need to consider the number of ridge tiles. Calculating the number of ridge tiles requires dividing the width of the roof by the length of the ridge tile, which is usually 0.88 meters per sheet.
- Calculate the number of hanging eaves
Hanging eaves are also an essential part of roof renovation. To calculate the number of hanging eaves, you need to divide the total length of the eaves side by the length of the hanging eaves, usually 0.48 meters.
- Calculate the number of screws
Finally, the number of screws needs to be calculated. Generally speaking, 4-6 screws are required per square meter to ensure the stability and safety of the roof.
