Planum ridge tile installation
The planum clay roof tile ridges must be fixed with lap facing away from the prevailing wind, so as to guarantee water tightness.
- Field tiles at top course should be secured directly either into the deck or top batten with stainless ring screw nails (or similar).
- All ridges and hips shall be covered with self adhesive Alu-Roll (CAM01, CAMF1, CAM09,CAMF9) or similar approved breathable waterproof underlay. Underlay should be secured over the ridge nailer with non-corrosive roofing nails.
- Fit ridge tiles with a minimum overlapping of 50mm throughout the ridgeline, facing away from the prevailing wind.
