With the promotion of new rural construction, more and more farmers begin to choose to transform the traditional roof into resin tiles, in order to improve the durability and beauty of the roof. However, for many rural residents, how to accurately calculate the amount of resin tiles needed has become a difficult problem. Today I will teach you the new rural construction roof transformation resin tile dosage calculation method.
- Calculate the roof area
First, the area of the roof needs to be measured accurately. This step is the basis for calculating the number of resin tiles required, usually using length by width to determine the total area of the roof.
- Calculate the total amount of the resin tile
After determining the total area of the roof, the total amount of the resin tile is needed. Roof area divided by 0.8 (effective width of resin tile is 0.8 m)
- Calculate the total number of resin tiles
After calculating the total amount of resin tiles, it is then necessary to calculate the total amount of resin tiles. This step is to divide the roof width by the effective width of the resin tiles (0.8 m) and then multiply by 2 because the resin tiles are usually double laid.
- Count the number of ridge tiles
In addition to the resin tiles, the roof renovation also needs to consider the number of ridge tiles. Calculating the number of ridge tiles requires dividing the roof width by the length of the ridge tiles, usually 0.88 m each.
- Calculate the number of hanging eaves
Hanging eaves are also an essential part of the roof renovation. Calculating the number of hanging eaves requires dividing the total length of the eaves by the length of the eaves, usually 0.48 m each.
- Calculate the number of self-tapping screws
Finally, the number of self-tapping screws needs to be calculated. Generally speaking, 4-6 self-tapping screws per square meter to ensure the stability and safety of the roof.
