Replacing an old flat roof, a pitched roof design has been supplied by Catnic for Llanyravon Social Club's building which houses changing rooms, bar and social areas, in Cwmbran, South Wales.
Suitable for commercial and residential projects, the company's Litetile roofing system and Academytile profile in Jasper Red were selected. A 'traditional' style roofing system was required to complement surrounding architecture, whilst offering the advantages associated with modern roofing materials.
Some 610 tiles were fixed with a nailing system, each of which covers an area of 0.56m?. The size and light weight of the tiles meant that fewer trusses and battens were needed to support the roof.
The product is able to to accommodate design features such as dormer windows, and will offer durability, the company claims. Litetile can also be attached to either timber or steel trusses, and is a dry-fix system that requires no mortar.
