Single skin systems : technical description

Steel profiles
Standard external weather sheets are available in 0.5mm and 0.7mm thicknesses.

Tables 01 and 02 give the standard profile dimensions, weights, and manufacturing tolerances.

The steel used in the AS series roof and wall profiles is hot-dip
galvanised to BS EN 10142:2000, BS EN 10147:2000 or Aluzinc coated, then finished with one of the coatings listed in Table 03 or one of an equivalent quality.

Weather sheets are available in a number of different profiles, many with matching roof and wall profiles. The following pages show the details and load tables for each profile.

In order to maintain our high standards of customer service we may replace the steel listed here with that of similar quality from different suppliers.
