When a person chooses material to coverroof or creating fences on the site, the construction team often recommends the use of decking. But what is decking and how is it good? Due to its technical characteristics and price, it has become one of the most popular and sought-after building materials on the market. Let's look at what a professional flooring, what are its pros and cons, the scope. Also tell you how to choose and how much it costs.
What is profiled?
This material isprofiled metal sheet (mainly steel), which was produced by cold rolling and profiled. That is, on the sheet were artificially created ribs in order to impart rigidity. In construction, the value of this material is difficult to overestimate, it can be used for many purposes. But more about that - a little later.
Materials for its manufacture
Steel is used to make the material.aluminum, chrome-nickel steel, copper. According to GOST profiled sheeting should have a thickness of 0.3-1.2 mm. For different purposes, a material of different thickness is used. In the manufacture of the ribs can be given a different shape: oval, trapezoidal, polygonal, ordinary square, etc.
Also in the manufacturing process is usedzinc, aluminum and zinc coating (usually it is 100-275 grams per square meter of layer), which gives the material anti-corrosion properties. And to increase strength and wear resistance, various polymers such as polyvinyl chloride, polyester, acrylic, polyurethane, etc. are used. Thanks to these polymers, it is possible to preserve the paint layer and prevent color from burning out.
Kinds
The scope of the material determines its appearance.For example, profiled walling is used for wall cladding of buildings and creating fences. It is labeled with the letter "C". The popular C20 professional flooring can be used for the roofing of industrial and civil buildings with a crate step of 0.4 m. In residential construction, this brand is used very widely. The professional flooring C20 has a long service life. It retains its aesthetic properties for 10-15 years. At the same time he has quite good physical properties. In particular, it perfectly withstands wind loads, which is why it is often used as a building envelope.
The second type is universal.This is HC35 corrugated board, which is intended for the roof of the roof and the construction of walls and fences. Although most often it is used to create the roof of the roof because of the excellent performance characteristics, this material is perfect for the construction of fences. It can have a polymer or galvanized coating, which effectively protects it from any adverse weather conditions. Thickness of a professional flooring HC35 can vary from 0.5 to 0.8 mm, which provides a small weight. At the same time it is easily cut, which simplifies the process of installation and disassembly. Well, the aesthetic properties of the height: it can be given any color. Partly because of this, it is often used for roofing.
The sheet of a professional flooring H75 can have thickness from 0,4mm to 1 mm, and it is also produced by cold rolling. Like previous types, this is also used for roofing, fencing or frame construction, as well as for wall cladding. The possibility of galvanizing or applying a polymer layer on the profiled sheeting H75 is attached. By the way, it is the H-profile that are carriers, so it is appropriate to use them to create roofs, fences. They are more rigid and able to withstand severe loads. Most often for the device of a roof and walls the H-153 profile is used.
It is assumed that the mark "C" is intended to create fences and walls. Grade "H" is better suited for the manufacture of peaks and canopies, and the universal mark "NS" - for roofing and fences.
It is difficult to determine which decking is better, becauseIt needs to be selected for certain tasks. But we can definitely say that a profile with a larger cross section is more durable. Such, for example, is better suited for the device of enclosing structures.
Material advantages
One of the first advantages of the material isIts light weight and ease of installation. If you compare it with natural tile or, for example, with slate, you can even select its "non-fragility", so even after a fall from a great height nothing will happen to it.
Установка ограждения из профнастила не требует foundation devices, and that's just fine when compared to brick fences or stone walls. From a design point of view, the material is good, as it is available in many color variations. How does the fence of the house, made of corrugated board, can be seen in the photo below.
Следующее достоинство - защита от коррозии (thanks to the coating), mechanical damage, ultraviolet radiation, temperature changes. The lifetime of the material is 50 years. Although after it will also serve, because it is metal.
It is impossible not to note the cost.The price of a professional flooring per m2 favorably distinguishes it from other materials for the roof. Perhaps, only the grid chain-link will cost cheaper at the device of a protection. However, we will talk about the price of professional flooring per m2 a little later.
Minuses
One of the big drawbacks is the so-calleddrum effect. During the rain, the noise level can reach 95 dB (this is with a heavy rain), so the installation of corrugated flooring involves the use of sound-proof materials (stone or glass wool).
The second minus - a scratch on the anti-corrosion layer can lead to rapid rusting. Therefore, if you find a deep scratch should immediately paint it.
Next is a small sheet thickness, which often causes installers to suffer during installation or transportation. Cuts and scratches on the corners of the edges are almost always at installation.
Roofing corrugated sheet thickness up to 0.55 mmeasily deformed. This is the last drawback profiled. GOST at the same time corresponds. Therefore, it should be handled with care during installation. It happens that the workers from the brigade corny bend the edge, but then align. But the dent is still visible in the end. And there is nothing unusual, just the technical characteristics of corrugated flooring are as follows.
Despite all these shortcomings, the profiled sheet is still one of the most popular building materials in the field of fencing and roofing.
Cost
Сложно точно ответить, сколько стоит забор из sheeting. Depending on exactly what thickness of profiled sheeting you will use, the price may be different. For example, if you want to use a material with a height of 2 meters and a thickness of 0.4 mm, then the price of such a profile will be 180 rubles per linear meter. In this case we are talking about an inexpensive polymer profile C8. The same galvanized profile will cost 155 rubles per meter.
Usually sellers indicate 2 prices, including the cost per square meter. The price per square meter of polymeric corrugated flooring C8 with a thickness of 0.4 mm is 155 rubles, galvanized - 130 rubles.
But there is more expensive material. C21 decking is more expensive: its price is on average 175 rubles per square meter. The same galvanized material is slightly cheaper than polymer - 130 rubles.
The prices indicated were taken from Moscow sellers.They can vary greatly depending on the region and the seller itself, therefore, are not final. Perhaps you will find cheaper material, but know that approximately its price per square meter is equal to 130-180 rubles.
Installation cost
The price for the material itself is small, its installation will be more expensive. The prices below are average for Russia, and they may vary by region, professionalism of the brigade, etc.
For the installation of one running meter fencethe team takes 500 rubles. This includes marking, drilling holes for the pillars, stripping and painting these pillars, installing in two rows and, of course, installing the corrugated sheet itself. In this case, the pillars will be installed just in the ground. Usually this is enough to ensure high strength. But brigades also propose to concrete the pillars, to block them or to use screw posts in general. In this case, the cost per meter will grow. For example, the cost of installing corrugated concrete with concreting pillars will cost an average of 700 rubles per linear meter.
Calculation example
As you already understood, it is impossible to calculatethe default cost, because it will depend on the perimeter and type of corrugated flooring, as well as other details: whether there will be concreting of the pillars, whether there is a need for additional work (for example, dismantling the old fence), etc.
But as an example, we give the simplest calculation.
Suppose you need to make a fence byperimeter. You measured all sides and got the required length of 40 meters (10 meters on each side). This means that you will have to pay 7200 rubles (180 rubles per linear meter) + poles for the material itself. Total you can count on 10 thousand rubles (only the material itself).
The cost of work, we now also can calculate:40 multiplied by 500 (the price for the installation of the running meter) and we get 20 thousand rubles. We add 10 thousand for the material and we get 30 thousand rubles. This is approximately how you can calculate the cost of a corrugated fence, but the team will tell the final price.
With the roof all a little different.
Roofing cost
The price for the material will be approximately the same:about 160-200 rubles per square meter. So much is the cheapest galvanized profiled. As you can see, the cost of the material is the same. Moreover, the material itself is the same, it can be used both for the roof and for the fence device. But the final price will depend on the sheet thickness, steel grade, coating type, rib height. Also in addition it is necessary to calculate the cost of the sealant, the layer for noise insulation, wind slats.
The cost of mounting the roof of corrugated
The cost of work is also different, and there is no specific standard. It all depends on the complexity, shape of the roof, the organization of the roofing pie. It even matters roofing space.
However, the brigade for the arrangement of the roof takeabout the same, although you can often find extremely cheap offers, but on average the price of laying a square meter builds 150 rubles. It is also worth considering that you have to pay for the installation of additional materials, such as a layer of noise insulation, etc. So it is impossible to calculate the cost yourself. It is necessary to call the brigade, pay for the measurement of the required work (some do not take money for the measurement), the workers calculate and say the final amount. At the same time, they take into account all the difficulties, for example, bypassing the chimney during installation.
Conclusion
Now you know what professional flooring is and whatway to count it. The figures in the article do not claim to be the ultimate truth, but the approximate average cost of the material and work with it is as indicated above.
