ROOF

Trusses are heavy duty, prefabricated with 50 x 75mm nom CLS to approved profile with minimum 15 degree pitch. External trusses fully clad with gable ventilator. Internal trusses are either fully clad with OSB (tack/haystores) or partially clad to create cantilever. Purlins are a minimum 50 x 150 nom CLS or KD softwood to SC3/4 BS5268 and fixed in special BAT galvanised joist hangers at average 515mm centres.Roof gables are finished with 25mm drip flashing and dressed fascia board, also fixed to leading edge of canopy. Standard roof covering is Onduline corrugated roof sheets, BBA & Agrement approved with good insulation & sound deadening properties and 15 year manufacturer guarantee. In areas of high wind or snow loading and larger expanses of roof, sarking is strongly recommended. This also benefits reduction in condensation inside the stable.

ALTERNATIVE

Also available is Alloy profile clad roofing or ONDUSTEEL, metal tiled effect sheeting. We can also offer BARDOLINE which is a weatherproof shingle tile. All are available in a wide range of colours laid over a sarking deck as standard.

TREATMENT

All exterior and ground contact timbers are fully pressure treated to BS4072/ 5268 and guaranteed against rot and insect damage for 15 years. External panels are finished in an environmentally sympathetic natural light green colour. This requires no further treatment (e.g. creosoting) but the use of a water repellent like Thomson's Waterseal is recommended. The panels are also stainable with spirit based systems to a wide range of colours.
