Professional flooring MP 20 is considered an ideal building material. It is convenient, practical for installation, very strong and durable.
Production of corrugated board
This professional flooring is made, as well as other brands of galvanized metal sheets. Steel is delivered to the plant in rolls unwinding with special automatic machines. After that, the material is placed on the rolling table, moving the steel to the rollers, converting the smooth metal into corrugated surfaces.
After the roller treatment is completed, the metal profile is sent for trimming and painting. First, the metal is trimmed to the required length. Then it is galvanized (when the steel is supplied in a non-galvanized form) and sent to the painting workshop, where the MP 20 galvanized corrugated board is processed. Processing can be carried out by 2 methods:
- staining with the use of high-frequency electric current (this method is more reliable);
- powder spraying under high pressure.
Professional flooring MP 20 roofing - colored material. Manufacturers offer many color options: aluminum, black, red, blue, white, brown, etc. In addition, it has a more pronounced resistance to temperature changes and corrosion, has a more presentable appearance. However, the cost of a painted profile is much higher than usual, for this reason, if this factor is not very important to you, then you can purchase unpainted material, and then process it yourself.
After such a treatment, the colored material is covered with a protective film to help it maintain color and protect itself from corrosion. Only after that the product is sent for sale.
Dimensions
Professional flooring MP 20 is available in a width of 1150 mm, given the overlap with adjacent sheets, the useful width is 1100 mm. The height of the wave profile is 20 mm.
Decking MP 20: characteristics
Decking is a building material having a coating intended for walls, roofs, partitions and the construction of small buildings. The designation "MP" indicates that the metal sheet is universal, and due to its good stiffness and light weight, it can be mounted on almost any surface. The number 20 is the height of the corrugation.
Features
The sides of the material have a polymer or zinc coating, and it is laid on either side. Manufacturers recommend placing waves with a narrow top at the top, and vice versa during wall cladding. A similar feature is also taken into account when laying on the roof or when using it for cladding.
Scope of application
Professional flooring MP 20 is used:
- in the construction of structural elements of light metal structures - change houses, garages, pavilions;
- in the process of installing a roof covering with a crate of steps no more than 40 cm;
- for panel fencing;
- for frames of fast-building structures;
- for metal gates and fences;
- for walls of all-metal buildings of small area;
- as a basis for heat insulation sandwich panels;
- as facing panels of capital walls;
- for internal partitions of buildings.
Advantages
- Flexibility. The material is often used for mansard, broken, tent and other "wrong" roofs.
- Long service life. With normal care more than 50 years.
- Availability. Decking is inexpensive, unlike other similar coatings.
- Relative lightness. Any foundation can easily carry weight up to 8 kg.
Thanks to the listed advantages, the MP 20 corrugated board has user reviews mostly positive.
disadvantages
However, even such excellent material as MP 20 corrugated board, according to reviews, has some disadvantages:
1. The profile height is not always convenient, for example, to cover complex roofs it will not be enough, material with a larger corrugation may be required.
2. The material can not tolerate stagnant water poorly, that is, it is not recommended to install the profile on a flat roof or in the absence of a drainage system. Here, either an improved vapor and waterproofing system is used, or a 2-sided corrugated board.
3. MP 20 roofing sheeting needs periodic cleaning from snow, foliage, dirt, otherwise the integrity of the coatings may be damaged.
However, in other aspects, this material is the best solution for covering the facade of a house, arranging roofs, covering fences, facing utility buildings and other construction works.
Despite the shortcomings, the MP 20 professional flooring reviews are generally good.
Installation of corrugated board
The procedure for fixing this material to the roof does not imply anything special, it is installed on the crate according to a similar pattern as other materials. You should read the recommendations of professional builders about installing a professional sheet:
1. Installation should always be done with an overlap, due to which the connection will be more rigid.
2. Fastening should be done with screws, but not with nails.
3. To carry out the installation of the roofing and wall corrugated board MP 20, drawings are required that will allow you to count the number of sheets and connecting products. The installation diagram also helps to calculate the rigidity of the structure.
4. Joining sheets is not very common to avoid reducing stiffness. Often, five screws can be enough - one in the center and two on each corner.
5. It must be remembered that the machines that process polymers are quite expensive, which is why it is advisable to negotiate with enterprises about processing sheets on equipment before purchasing corrugated board.
