Its sleek and simple lines effectively highlight the contrast of light and shadow on the tile.
Offering a contemporary option to traditional plain tiles, the concrete interlocking tile garners high praise for its seamless aesthetic appeal. The tile has a reduced environmental impact and is easy to install, and makes for a cost-effective and durable concrete solution.
Suited to pitches of 22.5° (smooth finish) or 30° (granular finish) up to 90°, these tiles have a nominal thickness of 25mm and can be fastened using the recommended 55mm x 3.35mm nails, while still retaining peak performance with a minimum roof headlap of 75mm and a maximum roof gauge of 345mm. You can obtain a net roof covering capacity of 9.8 tiles per square metre at a 75mm headlap or 10.6 tiles per square metre at a 100mm headlap. When employing a 75mm headlap, the approximate weight of the tiling is 45kg/m² (0.44kN/m²), whereas, with a 100mm headlap, it is 49kg/m² (0.48kN/m²).
Per net roof, you will need 2.9 linear metres of battens per square metre at a 75mm headlap, or 3.1 linear metres at a 100mm headlap. It is advisable to use 38mm x 25mm battens (in compliance with BS 5534) when the rafter/support distances do not exceed 450mm centres. If you have larger rafter/support intervals that do not exceed 600mm centres, you can opt for 50mm x 25mm battens (also compliant with BS 5534).
