PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
Coverland concrete roof tiles adhere to SANS Tiling Standards and
are produced by a high pressure extrusion and compression process
which impart the following properties:
• Strength
• Impact Strength
• Dimensional Tolerance
• Insulation
• Frost Resistant
• UV Resistant
• Maintenance-free
• Durability
• Thermal Properties
• Fire Resistant
• Water Impermeability
In terms of overall strength, Coverland concrete roof tiles comply
with the strength requirements and dimensional tolerances of SANS
542/1990 and can withstand the impact of a 45mm hailstone. These
tiles also have excellent insulating and thermal properties and are
unaffected by frost and ultraviolet radiation. They provide superior
summer-winter insulation properties and are also highly effective
sound insulators. Coverland tiles undergo stringent testing and are
certified impermeable and non-combustible (BS 476 Part 4: 1984).
When laid according to the BRAAS MONIER Roofing and SANS
Tiling Standards, Coverland concrete tiles will provide a weatherfast
and maintenance-free roof for many years.
DISCLAIMER: The colour of these illustrations may vary due to the printing process. Coverland recommends that you view
actual tile samples before reaching a purchase decision. Special colours are available on request.

Dry Ridge System – dry and ventilating ridge and hip solution
Fix the ridges and hip-lines with this method for optimum circulation from the eaves to the ridge. The easy installation replaces traditional
mortar applications and allows for the thermal expansion and contraction of the roof structure.

FIXING GUIDE
CATEGORY A – UNEXPOSED AREAS
All inland regions other than certain specified areas.
Mechanically fix two courses of tiles at the eaves, ridge and verges for the full
overhang, whichever is greater. Cut tiles at hips, valleys and abutments to be
secured with Kro Clips or Coverfill. It is recommended that closed soffits be
fitted on all verge and eave overhangs.
The exposure category of the required roof may
be assessed using the following table:
