General Information close-medium-white

Stramit® Corrugated Roof and Wall Cladding gives excellent durability in almost all locations. However, it is important to choose the correct coating for each application environment. Durability recommendations do vary based on the application of the product in roofing or walling installations.

All building products need to be checked for compatibility with adjacent materials. These checks need to be for both direct contact between materials, and where water runs from one material to another.

The following guidelines generally avoid material incompatibility:

  • For zinc-aluminium alloy coated steel, colour coated steel and galvanised steel cladding avoid copper, lead, green or treated timber, stainless steel and mortar or concrete.
  • Galvanised steel sheets should not receive drainage from aluminium or any inert materials, such as plastics, glass, glazed tiles, colour coated and zinc-aluminium alloy.

Stramit's roofing and walling products should be handled with care at all times to preserve the product capabilities and quality of the finish.

Packs should always be kept dry and stored above ground level while on site. If the products become wet, they should be separated, wiped and placed in the open to promote drying.

Stramit's cladding is suitable for use with insulating blanket. Glasswool blanket up to 50mm thick can be readily used. Increased thicknesses require longer fasteners and greater care in installation.

For domestic applications Stramit recommends that insulation is always used. Contact us for further information.

Stramit® Corrugated Roof and Wall Cladding is supplied cut to length. When designing or transporting long products ensure that the length is within the limit of the local Transport Authority regulations.

The manufacturing tolerance on the length of product supplied is +0, -15mm.

Cyclonic Data for Stramit® Corrugated Roof and Wall Cladding can be found in the Stramit Cyclonic Areas Guide

Information on the use of Stramit® Corrugated Roof and Wall Cladding in the Darwin area can be found in deemed-to-comply sheets Nos M/149/01 and M/239/01. These are available from Stramit or on the NT BAC website.

Stramit® Corrugated Roof and Wall Cladding must be fixed with either 3 or 5 fasteners per sheet at each batten/purlin to meet the required performance values, as shown below.

 

All fastening screws must conform to AS3566 – suitable for minimum corrosivity category 3. They are to be hexagon headed and must be used with sealing washers for both roofing and walling.

For connecting to purlins or top hats in non-cyclonic regions use:

*For steel less than 1.5mm thickness fastener capacity must be checked.

The Stramit Cyclonic Areas Manual has fixing details for cyclonic areas.

Foot traffic limits for Stramit® Corrugated Roof and Wall Cladding are shown for 3 alternative foot traffic categories:

Heavy – for applications with repeated maintenance, particularly where personnel may be unfamiliar with correct procedures for walking on metal roofs.

Normal – based on traditional expectations, with moderate maintenance foot traffic using designated footpaths.

Controlled – spans that confirm to AS 1562.1:2018 with 1.1kN load specified in AS/NZS 1170.1:2002 for R2 - Other Roofs. These require minimal careful foot traffic only on the designated footpath. Suggested for use only where occasional aesthetic imperfections from foot traffic are acceptable.

Tables are based on tests to AS 1562.1:2018 and AS 4040 parts 0 and 1.

For more information on foot traffic performance of Stramit's roofing profiles refer to Stramit's Foot Traffic Guide.

Stramit® Corrugated cladding is manufactured from G550 or G300 colour coated steel, aluminium-zinc-magnesium or zinc-aluminium alloy coated steel. In some locations galvanised and severe environment colour coated steel may be available by arrangement.

Colour coated steels are in accordance with AS/NZS 2728:2013 - Type 4 and, for the substrate, with AS 1397:2021. Aluminium-zinc-magnesium alloy coated AM100/AM125, zinc-aluminium alloy coated AZ150 and galvanised Z450 conform to AS 1397:2021.

Stramit has a comprehensive range of colours as standard. Ask your nearest Stramit location for colour availability.

The profiles of G300 and G550 Corrugated cladding may vary and should not be used in overlapping configurations.

The minimum roof slope for Stramit® Corrugated Roof and Wall Cladding is 5 degrees (1 in 12).

The spans shown below take account of 'normal' foot traffic and wind resistance including local pressure zone effects. Pressures are based on AS 4055:2021 or AS/NZS 1170.2:2021.

Where the two standards differ, the worst case has been taken for each classification. Data should only be used for buildings with dimension limits given in AS 4055:2021, 7m or less in average height, 16m max width and length less than 5 times the width, where both length and width exceed the building height and site is unaffected by land topography. Maximum roof pitch 35º. Refer to AS 4055:2021 for more detail.

*Where roof pitch is less than 10 degrees, use spans given in red italics for roof corners. Where roof pitch is greater than or equal to 10 degrees, use spans in red italics for ridge/edge corners.

Internal spans must have both end spans 20% shorter.

TC - Terrain Category. FS, PS, NS - Full, partial and no shielding. Internal pressure coefficient +0.2/-0.3, external pressure coefficient 0.9 (roof)/ -0.65 (wall). Values are only valid for use with steel members of 1.5mm or thicker. Where thinner supports are used, fastener capacity must be checked. For use with battens supports on roofs, refer to the Stramit® Roof Batten technical Supplement. 

For more specific applications Stramit® Corrugated cladding must be designed to the pressure and foot traffic limits indicated. 

Roof spans may exceed those shown in this table provided the wind pressure and foot traffic limits are not exceeded.  

Stramit® Corrugated Roof and Wall Cladding can be spring-curved, concave or convex, including curved ridges, provided it is sealed at the apex, and within the recommended limits below.

*At these radii a maximum support spacing of 900mm applies, and limit state pressure capacities are reduced by 14% for serviceability and 7% for stregth. These reductions apply proportionately up to the lowest neutral radius. Minimum 5 fasteners required per sheet at ends. 

All metal roof sheeting is subject to thermal expansion and this needs to be accommodated where there is a temperature difference between the sheeting and the structure.

The colour of the sheeting will affect the amount of thermal expansion, and whether the sheet is flat or cured will affect its ability to resist without problems. Sheet lengths should be limited as follows.

Stramit® Corrugated Roof and Wall Cladding has limited water-carrying capacity. Roof slopes can be as low as 5° for many applications.

Roof run lengths are the combined lengths of all roof elements contributing to a single pan drainage path. This can include the roof length upstream of a roof penetration that concentrates flow into other pans.

The table below gives slopes for 1% Annual Exceedance Probability (formerly 100 year ARI) rainfall intensity.



Based on AS 1562.1:2018

To avoid ponded water, minimum slope of 5º should be maintained along the entire roof length.

Stramit’s Roof Slope Guide provides additional information.

Derived from testing, the following tables give the wind load resistance for both serviceability and strength limit states. Values are only valid for use with steel support members of 1.5mm or thicker.

 

Tables are based on testing to AS1562.1 and AS4040 parts 0 and 2. Internal spans must have both end spans 20% shorter.

Values only valid for use with steel support members of 1.5mm or thicker. Where thinner supports are used, fastener capacity must be checked. Refer to Stramit® Top Hat and Batten Product Technical Manual for more information.

Refer to Stramit® Cyclonic Areas Roof and Wall Cladding Brochure for information on use in Cyclonic Regions.

Installation Information close-medium-white

Stramit's cladding can be easily cut, where required, using a power saw with a cold cut saw blade or a power nibbler and, for localised cutting, tin snips. Avoid the use of abrasive discs as these can cause burred edges and coating damage. Please dispose of any off-cuts carefully and thoughtfully.

Stramit® Corrugated Roof and Wall Cladding can be installed with or without fibreglass insulation blanket. If practical, lay sheets in the opposition direction to the prevailing weather.

Installation of Stramit® Corrugated Roof and Wall Cladding is a straightforward procedure using the following fixing sequence.

  • Ensure all purlins are in line and correctly installed and that mesh and blanket (if specified) are in place.
  • Position and fix the first sheet ensuring the correct sheet overhangs (minimum 50mm). Ensure that screws are not overtightened.
  • Continue to fix subsequent sheets checking that sheet ends at the lower edge are exactly aligned.
  • It is important that the underlap of one sheet does not protrude beyond the overlap of the next – if this is unavoidable, the underlap must be trimmed locally or water ‘drawback’ may occur.
  • Measure the overall cover width at the top and bottom of the sheets from time to time to avoid 'fanning'.
  • For roof spans exceeding 900mm and wall spans exceeding 1200mm, stich the sidelaps at midspan.
  • Turn up the valleys at the upper roof edge and install flashings. Fix flashings according to AS 1562.1:2018 or HB39.
  • Clean up the roof after each day's work , removing all screws, cuttings and swarf so the roof is left clean and watertight.

As with all roofing products, we recommend extra caution be taken when walking on the roof. When walking on Stramit® Corrugated Roof and Wall Cladding, always wear flat rubber soled shoes and place feet only on the crests, taking care to avoid the last crest or two near edges of the metal roof area.

 

Maintenance Information close-medium-white

Below are some handy hints and tips to achieve maximum life from your COLORBOND® and ZINCALUME® finished products.

  • In areas of little rainfall, products should be cleaned regularly.
  • Brick cleaning acid should not come into contact with steel fascia, gutter, or roofing and walling.
  • Never immerse these products in sand, soil or concrete.
  • Do not use touch up spray can paint on COLORBOND® steel.
  • Remove metal debris from cutting and/or drilling to avoid swarf damage.
  • Prior to installation, keep bundled material dry.
  • Prepainted metal roofing components should be stored in the shade as the protective plastic film will become difficult to remove if it is exposed to direct sunlight.
  • Make sure materials made of different metal, such as copper and lead, do not make contact with these products, and water does not run from one to the other.
  • Roofing and guttering should be free draining and free from dirt and leaves.
