BT MEDITERRANEAN SHINGLE

About this product

PLACA DANOSA BT MEDITERRÁNEO (2000x1050) are bituminous sheets with a wavy shape. Composed of mineral and vegetable fibres saturated with a bituminous emulsion at high temperatures. There is no asbestos or toxic materials in their composition, so they are completely harmless to health.

BT Mediterráneo slab: under curved tile with a mouth width between 18.5 and 22 cm.

BT Minionda slab: under flat, mixed, concrete tile with slats.

Protection under roof tiles.

High resistance to compression, allowing foot traffic.

High longitudinal strength, helps to support the weight of the roof.

Provides double waterproofing, creating a totally waterproof lower structure on the roof.

Easy application.

Light.

It is not necessary to use mortar for laying.

Allows an air flow between the support/plate/tiles, avoiding condensation.

Resistant to climatic changes.

Continuous concrete supports.

Continuous wooden supports.

Continuous mortar supports.

Discontinuous supports of wooden battens.

PLACA DANOSA BT MEDITERRÁNEO (2000×1050) is used under a curved tile with an opening width between 18.5 cm and 22 cm (the widest opening of the tile).

PLACA DANOSA BT MEDITERRÁNEO (2000×1050) is used on continuous concrete, ceramic and wood substrates (wood decking, wood chipboard, sandwich panel, etc…) and discontinuous wood battens.

The panels are installed from the eaves to the ridge and in the opposite direction to the prevailing winds.

The boards are mechanically fixed to the support. The nail shall always be fixed in the ridge of the wave. The type of fixing depends on the type of support.

The recommended slope is between 15% and 70%.

Plate to plate overlaps: Lateral, one wave. Transversal, 15 cm, except in the case of slopes of less than 20 %, which shall be 30 cm.

For slopes of less than 40 %, 9 fixings per slab shall be provided. These fixings shall be distributed as follows: 3 at the top, 3 at the bottom and 3 in the middle.

For slopes greater than 400 %, 12 fixings shall be provided per plate. These fixings shall be distributed as follows: 4 at the top, 4 at the bottom and 4 in the middle.

The top and bottom fixings shall be spaced 7 cm from the edge of the plate.

The top, bottom and side fixings shall be made at the overlaps between boards.

If thermal insulation is used, DANOPREN is placed between the substrate and the board, and the fixing must pass through the assembly until it is anchored to the substrate.

In renovation work or for the cladding of existing roofs (on fibre cement boards, for example), 60 x 60 mm wooden strips are fixed perpendicularly to the skirt (perpendicular to the line of maximum slope), which will form the supporting framework on which the under-tile boards will be installed. The distance between these battens shall be less than the length of the tile minus 10 cm. In addition, the weight of the tile shall be on the battens and not on the plates.

It is important to control the overloads of use, snow (if applicable) and the actions of the wind when deciding the amount and distribution of these battens, always taking into account the standards that regulate the construction of the supporting structure of the plates.

The installation of PLACA DANOSA BT MEDITERRÁNEO (2000×1050) is not recommended at temperatures below 1º C.

At the eaves, the panel will overhang by 2 cm (maximum overhang of 5 cm).

The joints between walls and skirts, and the reinforcements at the eaves, ridge, gable ends and singular points will be resolved with CINTA AUTOADHESIVA SELF-DAN.

The panels shall always be laid in the direction of the lower corner of the roof and in the opposite direction to the prevailing winds.

Do not obstruct the ventilation channels between the eaves and the ridge to prevent frost formation and thermal changes.

Installation at temperatures below 1°C is not recommended.

It is always recommended to fix the tiles in place, although on slopes between 15 and 30% it is not necessary.

The product must be stored in a dry place protected from rain, sun, heat and low temperatures.

The product must be stored horizontally.

This product is not toxic or flammable.

Does not contain asbestos or any other component that is harmful to health.

Pallets shall not be stacked on top of each other.
