1.Material preparation
Before you start making a corrugated roof, make sure you have the following materials and tools ready:
Corrugated iron or corrugated steel
Steel nails or screws
Waterproof sealant
Roof joists and purlins
Electric drill
Cutting tools (such as angle grinders or metal shears)
Safety equipment (gloves, goggles, etc.)


Step 1: Measure and plan
First, measure the area of ​​the roof to determine how many corrugated sheets are needed. Calculate the number of sheets required based on the size of the roof and the specifications of the corrugated sheets. Considering the overlap of the sheets, usually increase the amount of material by 10-15%.

Step 2: Install joists and purlins
Next, install the joists and purlins to support the corrugated sheets. The spacing between the joists should be adjusted according to the strength and span of the corrugated sheets. Generally speaking, the distance between joists should be kept between 1.2 and 1.5 meters, while the distance between purlins should be between 60 and 90 cm.

Step 3: Laying corrugated sheets
Begin laying corrugated sheets from the lowest point of the roof. Fix the first corrugated sheet to the purlin and fix it with steel nails or screws. Make sure the corrugated sheet is in close contact with the purlin and each peak and trough should be fixed. After the first sheet is laid, continue to lay the next sheet, overlapping the previous sheet by two peaks.

Step 4: Fixing and sealing
After all the corrugated sheets are laid, check the fixing of each sheet to ensure that all sheets are firmly fixed. Next, apply waterproof sealant to all joints to prevent rainwater from leaking. Pay special attention to the sealing of the roof edges and the overlapping parts of the corrugated sheets.

Step 5: Finishing work
Finally, check the installation of the entire roof to ensure that all fixing points and joints are properly handled. Clean up the work area and remove all waste and tools.

By following the above steps, you can successfully make a strong and durable corrugated roof. If you encounter difficulties during the installation process, it is recommended to consult a professional. I hope this article will help you and wish you a smooth completion of the corrugated roof production
