4 4 ETERNIT ROOF ARRANGEMENT RAFTER LENGTH AND ROOF WIDTH Calculating the rafter length: Division of rafters into average tile-covering lengths 1 Eaves-batten distance The eaves-batten distance is established first, i.e. the distance between the foot of the rafter and the upper edge of the eaves-batten. 2 Ridge construction Then Dimension B (the distance between the ridge apex and the top tiling batten) is established, taking into account the construction of the ridge. (For Dimension B values for different roof pitches, see page 7.) 3 Remaining distance The remaining distance between 1 and 2 gives the number of tile courses required. 310 mm mm (variable) remaining distance CL CL CL CL FAL dimension B 30 FAL = under-ridge ventilating tile CL = covering length Calculating the total roof width: Lateral division of roof into average Tile-covering widths 1 The covering widths of the verges are established first. The left-hand side of the roof can also be tiled with double-roll tiles in order to match the appearance of the right-hand side of the roof. 2 The remaining distance between the left verge tile (or double-roll tile) and the right verge tile (or standard roof tile) can then be determined from the width of the building plan. 10 mm 10 VO verge left tiling batten chalk lines every 3 or 4 rows Width of the construction Width of tiled area verge right 10 mm VO This remaining dimension must be divisible by the average covering width of the roof tiles, (see page 2). = covering width of standard roof tile VO = verge overlap Note: tiling begins on the right 260 mm 230 mm mm 65 mm max 20 mm 285 mm mm approx 20 mm 25 mm 25 mm rafter tiling batten roof boarding chalk lines every 3 or 4 rows Covering measurements of 1-piece verge tiles, left and right-hand Note: all dimensions are average values in mm, and are subject to change without notice. approx 305 mm rafter roof boarding chalk lines every 3 or 4 rows Covering measurements of double-roll tiles at low upstand, with double-roll tile on the left and standard roof tile on the right
