    The document provides information on estimating materials for galvanized iron sheet roofing, including: - Corrugated galvanized iron sheets of varying lengths are the most common roofing material. Their effective width of coverage depends on the side lapping used. - Accessories like rivets, washers, and plain sheets are also required. Their quantities depend on the number of corrugated sheets and fasteners used. - The document demonstrates how to calculate the materials required for a sample roof, determining the corrugated sheets, fasteners, and accessories needed based on the roof dimensions and design specifications.

    The key takeaways are that galvanized iron (GI) sheet is a common roofing material that comes in plain or corrugated forms. Its thickness is measured by gauge number, with thinner sheets having higher numbers. When estimating roofing sheets, factors like side lapping, effective width, end lapping length, purlin spacing, and sheet length must be considered.

    The common roofing materials discussed are galvanized iron (GI) sheet, which can be plain or corrugated, and comes in various gauge numbers and sizes. GI sheet is widely used for roofing and sidings.

    The thickness of galvanized iron sheet is measured in terms of gauge number, which ranges from 14 to 30. As the gauge number increases, the sheet becomes thinner. Gauge 26 is most extensively used for roofing, while gauge 24 is specified for gutters and valley rolls.

    ESTIMATING ROOFING MATERIALS

    GALVANIZED IRON SHEET

    Most common roofing material.


    Also known as GI sheet.
    It is either plain or corrugated.
    Plain sheets are used for gutters,
    flashing, down spout, ridge, hip, and
    valley roll.
    Plain sheet standard commercial size is
    90 X 240 centimeters long.

    GI SHEET

    Corrugated GI sheet is widely used for


    roofing and sidings
    having standard width of 80
    centimeters with varying length from
    150 to 360 centimeters at consecutive
    intervals of 30 centimeters.
    Long span corrugated sheets are also
    available on special order.

    GAUGE NUMBER

    The thickness of galvanized iron sheet is


    measured in terms of Gauge Number
    from 14 to 30.
    The sheet becomes thinner as gauge
    number becomes larger.
    Gauge 26 is the most extensively used
    for roofing and various tin works
    Gauge 24 is specified for gutters and
    valley rolls.

    Before estimating the required number of corrugated roofing


    sheets, the following information should be considered first:
    1. Verify the plan if the side lapping is 1- or 2-
    corrugations.
    2. If it is 1-1/2 corrugations, the effective width covering per
    sheet is .70 meters or .60 meters for 2-1/2 corrugations.
    3. The standard end-lapping joint is from 25 to 30
    centimeters long. This is important in determining the
    length of the sheet to be used.
    4. Spacing of the purlins should be proportionally adjusted to
    the length of the G.I.
    sheets to avoid unnecessary cutting or excessive
    overlapping. In short, the length of the roof sheet governs
    the spacing distance of the purlins.
    5. A good roofing design minimizes end lapping joint. Longer
    length of roofing sheet is preferred for economical reasons.

    ESTIMATING G.I. ROOF AND ITS

    1.

    3.

    ACCESSORIES

    Determine the length of the purlins along the


    gutter line. This distance is perpendicular with
    the roof direction.
    Divide this length by the effective width
    covering of one G.I. sheet using either 0.70 for 1
    corrugations or 0.60 m. for 2 corrugations.
    The result is the number of sheets for one row.
    Determine the length of the rafter or top chord.
    Choose the right combination of roofing sheets
    that will satisfy this length considering the 25 to
    30 centimeters standard end lapping.

    END LAPPING

    SIDE LAPPING

    WASHERS

    14.00 M

    6.00 M

    Assume side lapping of 1 corr. And end


    lapping of 0.30m.

    SOLUTION
    Corrugated GI Sheet
    Divide the length of the gutter by the effective width
    covering of one sheet.
    14.00/0.70 = 20 sheets in one row
    The length of the rafter is 6.00meters, referring to
    the table of effective covering, the combination of
    3.60m(12 ft) and 2.7 m (9 ft) long GI sheet is
    appropriate.

    ORDER:

    20 32 x 12 corr. GI Sheet
    20 32 x 9 corr. GI Sheet

    Rivets
    Refer to table
    For 12 ft long: 20 x 26 = 520 pieces
    For 9 ft long: 20 x 22 = 440 pieces
    ______________
    Total rivets
    960
    pieces
    Covert to kilograms
    = 960/180 = 5.3 say 5.5 kilograms

    GI Washers
    Double the number of rivets
    = 960 x 2 = 1920
    Convert to kilograms:
    = 1920/128 = 15.24 KILOGRAMS

    Lead Washers

    Number of rivets is the same as the lead


    washers+ 960
    Covert to kilograms:
    = 960/75 = 12.8 say 13 kilograms

    SUMMARY OF MATERIALS

    20 pcs 32 x 12 corr. GI
    Sheet
    20 pcs 32 x 9 corr. GI Sheet
    5.5 kg GI Rivets
    15.5 kg GI washers
    13 kg Lead Washers

    Find the number of corr. GI sheets, rivets, GI


    washers, lead washers, and anchor strap
    required if the plan specify 2-1/2 corrugation
    for side lapping and 0.30 end lapping on a 2 x
    4 purlins.

    ROOFING SHEETS

    Length of gutter/0.60 = 18/0.6 = 30


    pieces
    The length of rafters is 6.00 m , so the
    combination is 3.60m and 2.7m GI
    sheets
    30 pieces of 32 x 12 GI sheet
    30 pieces of 32 x 9 GI Sheet
    Since that is only one side, double the
    quantity.
    60 pieces of 32 x 12 GI sheet

    Considering the roof is hipped type,


    wastage on cutting cannot be avoided,
    hence provide add 5% to 10% wastage.
    Get a longer sheet to avoid excessive
    cutting.
    60 + 60 = 120 x 5% = 6 pieces of 12
    ORDER:
    66 pcs 32 x 12 GI Sheet
    60 pcs 32 x 9 GI Sheet

    GI RIVETS

    For 12 ft sheet = 60 * 26 = 1560 pieces


    For 9 ft sheet = 60*22 = 1320 pieces

    Total: 2880 pieces

    GI WASHERS

    Double the number of rivets


    2880 x 2 = 5760 pieces
    Convert to kilograms

    5760/126 = 45.7 say 46 kilograms

    LEAD WASHER

    Same as the number of rivets


    =2880 pieces
    Convert to kilograms
    = 2880/75 = 38.5 say 39 kilograms

    PLAIN GI ANCHOR STRAP

    The size of GI Strap on a 2 x 4 purlins


    is 1 x10
    Number of strap is equal to number of
    rivets.
    2880/342 = 8.42 say 9 pieces 90cm x
    240cm plain GI Sheet

    SUMMARY

    66 pcs 32 x 12 GI Sheet
    60 pcs 32 x 9 GI Sheet
    2880 pieces GI Rivets
    46 kilograms GI washers
    39 kilograms Lead washers

    Categorized as roof accessories under


    tinsmith work. Estimating these type of
    accessories is simply determining the
    number of plain GI sheets needed to
    fabricate it.

    EFFECTIVE LENGTHS

    Gutter 2.35m

    FLASHING

    EXAMPLE.
    Find the number of Plain GI sheets required to
    fabricate the gutter, ridge roll, and flashing.

    GUTTER, RIDGE, FLASHING DETAIL

    GUTTER

    Total length of gutter = 20m


    Divide effective length = 20/2.35 = 8.5
    say 9 pieces gutter
    Total width of gutter = 45cm
    Compute no. of gutter that can be
    made out of 1 plain GI sheet
    =90cm/45cm = 2 pcs.

    No of plain GI sheets = 9/2 = 4.5 say 5


    pieces plain GI sheet

    FLASHING

    Total length = 18m


    Divide it by the effective length =
    18/2.30 = 7.8 say 8 pieces
    Width of flashing = 45cm
    90 cm / 45 cm = 2 pieces can be made
    of 1 plain GI sheet
    8 pcs/2pcs = 4 GI Sheets

    RIDGE ROLL

    Total length = 10 m
    Width = 45cm
    Divide total length by effective length
    = 10/2.2 = 4.5 pieces ridge roll
    2 pcs of ridge roll can be made out of 1
    plain GI sheet
    Therefore , 4.5/2 = 2.25 sheets say 3
    sheets

    SUMMARY

    GUTTER = 5 pcs 90 x 240cm Plain GI


    Sheets
    FLASHING= 4 pcs 90 x 240cm Plain GI
    Sheets
    RIDGE ROLL = 3 pcs 90 x 240cm Plain GI
    Sheets
    TOTAL = 12 pieces plain GI Sheets
