Steel Roofing Sheets : Choosing The Best Roof For Your Project
Which Metal Roof Sheets are better- IBR or Corrugated?
IBR or Inverted Box Rib is considered a stronger roof profile than Corrugated Roof Sheets because of the flat angles of its square, fluted profile. Corrugated iron is a steel roofing sheet, and has a classic S-rib profile. IBR is currently the most popular corrugated roofing sheet, given its high strength-to-weight ratio, optimal loadspan and highly effective drainage.
Steel Roofing Sheets : Choosing The Best Option
Corrugated roof sheeting
Corrugated roof sheeting is the most commonly used S-rib roofing profile for roof sheets. This profile is ideal for a number of applications, giving you a strong and structurally sound steel roof sheet for your roofing needs.
Corrugated sheeting provides efficient water runoff, withstands different weather conditions, and can enhance the aesthetic appeal of buildings.
IBR roof sheeting
IBR stands for Inverted Box Rib. IBR roof sheeting is a square fluted roof profile, ideal for large construction projects including commercial, industrial, agricultural and residential applications.
IBR is known for its strength, low maintenance requirements, and aesthetic appeal, making it a popular choice for residential, commercial, and industrial roofing applications.
Widespan roof sheeting
Widespan roof sheeting is generally a more affordable and economical option, where the profile offers greater spans and lower roof slopes, for cheaper manufacturing.
Chromadek roof sheeting
Chromadek sheeting is a durable and visually appealing roofing material used in construction. It consists of a galvanized steel substrate coated with zinc, aluminium, and a paint system.
Chromadek sheeting is a popular choice for roofing and cladding applications, providing long-lasting protection and enhancing the visual appeal of buildings.
