You can be assured of the high precision and consistency that comes as standard with offsite construction.

3 The process for a typical cold roof installation Client house/apartment design drawings, specifications and fit out requirements received from client. Roof designed by our roof designer using MITEK software as per a standard roof with the addition of identifying the appropriate junctions for the modules. MODUROOF approved connection details incorporated into design. All roofs are designed in accordance with NHBC chapter 7.2, appropriate BS/EN standards and Building Regulations. Client consulted if minor amendments are required to improve system efficiency. Tile/slate fixing schedules provided by the tile/slate manufacturer. Roof construction undertaken in the factory. All roofs are fully assembled in the factory including all bracing, strapping etc. The roof is then separated ready for transportation to site to ensure on-site installation is as straight forward as possible. Completed modules are then transported to site. Wall plates are fitted and strapped down by client. The roof modules are then installed on site to the awaiting structure. The roof modules are moved into place, junctions bolted and restraint straps fixed to the structure below as

4 required. The roof junctions are then sealed using the MODUROOF zip junction detail and install the tile/slates externally.

5 Typical room in roof installation A roof in roof installation is much the same as a cold roof that except if necessary the roof is separated to incorporate top hat trusses for transportation purposes.

6 Questions and Answers Is the system acceptable to NHBC? NHBC have reviewed the system and they have agreed that the system is accepted on NHBC sites subject to their requirements being incorporated. Is a BBA or system approval required? Moduroof is essentially a method of delivery rather than a construction type. The system therefore does not have BBA approval however it is not required by LABC or NHBC. Who is responsible for the roof design? Each roof is either designed or supported by Mitek software or in the case of specialist designs these would be designed by our structural engineer and supporting design and calculations provide to clients. NHBC requires batten joints to be staggered how does the system met these requirements? NHBC treat each 3m section as a separate roof therefore as long as the individual sections comply with NHBC 7.2 their standards are met. Battens within the module are staggered where necessary in accordance with the standards. As the roof is in sections should bracing be used to link the modules together? No as long as bracing is installed correctly within the modules no additional timbers are required. Each module is viewed as an individual roof for bracing and tile lath purposes. NHBC require tiles to be fixed in accordance with manufacturers fixing schedules can this be achieved. All slates/tiles will be fixed in accordance with manufacturers fixing schedules and a copy of the fixing schedule will be included within the technical manual. Can the system incorporate warm and cold roof constructions. Yes both cold and warm roofs can be incorporated and if necessary insulation can be pre-installed.

7 Can spandrel panels be incorporated into the system. Yes gable and party wall spandrel panels can be incorporated. However if party walls are to be incorporated, the block work needs to be built up above ceiling level in accordance with Robust Details requirements. What are the maximum spans possible with the system Truss sizes are restricted by transportation sizes however roofs can be broken down into modules. This allows most spans to be achievable. Is the system compatible with different build methods? Yes Moduroof can be used in conjunction with most systems of build including timber frame, concrete panel, steel frame. What Health and Safety accreditation do Moduroof have? Moduroof are SMAS accredited and all documentation is provided in accordance with regulatory requirements

13 Tile/Slate Manufacturer Fixing Specification 1) When slates arrive on site every pallet should have an accompanying document attached. This is known as an ACD This should have CE marking, the origin of the slate, producers address and BS EN test results. Ensure the information and details comply with the slate specified. If required you can remove the ACD s and keep for reference If there are no ACD s present the slates should be rejected 2) Slates are usually supplied pre holed, 3) The installer should correctly sort and grade the slates into a minimum of three or four grades, i.e. Thicks (to be laid to the lower part of the roof/eaves) Mediums (to be laid in the middle of the roof) Thins (to be laid towards the top of the roof/ridge). If the slates are graded to a 4 th thickness these may not be used in the main body of the roof but cut to form eave or top slates or cut for use around features in other areas of the roof It is important during this process to tap each slate, usually with a Slater s axe, to confirm soundness. This simple process will detect any possible flaws prior to fixing. Any slate that does not ring true or is considered to be flawed should not be fixed but placed to one side. Again these slates may be suitable for cutting to be used as eave or top states. Only when all these processes have been carried out should fixing commence. Slates should be fixed in accordance with the current BS5534, Code of practice for Slating and Tiling, BS 8000 Part 6 Workmanship on Building Sites, Natural Slates and Best practice. The correct selection, sorting and grading of the slates is extremely important to achieve a neat and attractive finish When battening out the roof the rafters/roof trusses require being in line, if they are not then the battens should be fixed using packers to ensure they are level with true rooflines ready for slating Roofing battens or boarded roofs should be marked with perpendicular lines commonly known as plumb lines usually 3 or 4 widths of slate to ensure vertical bonding ready for slating Slates should be laid in horizontal uninterrupted evenly graded lines with 5mm gaps between the slates. Slating to a hip or valley should be constructed using slates cut from slate and a half. The minimum width of cut slate at the top edge should be not less than 150mm. Small triangular pieces of slate are not permitted When slating to a verge or abutment the minimum width of slate should be 150mm. When a slate would be less than 150mm then Slate and a half should be used on alternate courses.
