For concrete tile roofs
- Install the first row of the furring channel by measuring from the edge of the eaves for about 24 cm.
- The second row of furring channel should be spaced apart from the first row by about 21 cm, using center to center measurement.
- Install the next rows of furring channel with 21 cm distances equally until the top is reached.
- On the top of roof ridge, place the furring channels from the pinnacle of a rafter about 5-7 cm on both sides equally.
- Begin the process of placing concrete tiles on the roof.
Example of how to calculate the amount of furring channels
0.55 mm thick and 4 meters
wide furring channel roof space x 1.20 = approximate numbers of furring channels
0.55 mm thick and 6 meters
wide furring channel roof space x 0.75 = approximate numbers of furring channels |
