Mate of mine has this corrugated composite roof panel product in mind. He
recollects them as a very rigid and industrial panel. He's seen the stuff
in the likes of B&Q and wants something superior. What are the options and
where do you get them?

No, he mentioned both these types and they are not the substantial stuff he
is thinking of.

Is this what you're looking for?

and there's a price list, so no guessing.

I don't think so, because it's just for a garage remodelling exercise and
the insulation won't be important. I think he just wanted a really good
quality product with less inherent flex than the usual stuff.

Alternatively, http://www.steadmans.co.uk You will require special
fixings and may need barge boards plus internal and external ridges for
a pitched roof. The fixing has a section of thread under the head to
*pull* the sheet tight to the sealing washer.

Repeat of comment in earlier thread..... uninsulated steel roofing plus
frosty night = morning condensation drips. Single skin asbestos cement
is porous and seems to cycle condensate without dripping.

Not so.
My single pitch garage roof is single corrugated asbestos panels and drips
badly after a frosty night.

The slope angle of the roof may decide whether the drips run down or drip
off.
Does anyone know the critical angle? ( but it probabaly depands on the
material)

Apex roofs with steeper slopes may acheive sufficient pitch angle to prevent
dripping.

Is the underside of the roof painted? I made the mistake of slapping
some masonry paint on the underside of some very old and mucky
asbestos-cement sheets, and they drip in certain weather conditions when
other (unpainted) parts of the same roof don't. They leak, as well, but
that's another story. This a single pitch roof, around 10 degrees iirc.

You amaze me! I have several BS5502 steel framed barns with cement
bonded fibre big 6 roofing and no drips.

off.

Agricultural pitch is around 12.5 degrees.

Apex roofs with steeper slopes may acheive sufficient pitch angle to prevent
dripping.

Hmm.. see comment elsewhere about sealing with paint.

The same site has uninsulated sheets
