SoffitThe soffit material is screwed into the suspension rails in 60 centimeter sections. Note that this nature board (Shera brand) and other soffit material is much more whether resistant than gypsum wallboard (even the moisture resistant kind). Most comparable houses use gypsum for the soffit material which isn't advisable. dozer (0 votes)

Roof InspectionDon't fool yourself into thinking CPAC roof tiles are totally dummy proof. Leaks often occur at the ridge lines and valleys. A inspection during a rain cycle ensures compliance. This roof had no leaks, hurray!dozer (0 votes)

The frame work for the roof structure is box section 4 inch x 2 inch heavy 3.2 mm thick metal sections. There are columns at even intervals so a more extensive truss system is unnecessary (as opposed to Chok Dee #1).dozer (0 votes)

Galvanized Sheeting for Roof ValleyMost of the problems with CPAC concrete roof tiles come from inadequate valley material or poorly done ridges. It is easy to get the wrong stuff, just go to any supply store and ask for the valley material that everyone uses. This is the 1 meter wide material, formed in the center for water run-off, roofs with this as valley material (properly installed) don't have problems. dozer (0 votes)

Ridges Laid in PlaceThe ridge tiles are laid in place over a waterproofed (via Sika) concrete mix. Note that the exposed concrete will still need to be treated with a exterior coat of waterproofing agent. The other method is dry tech, which is not used here. dozer (0 votes)

CPAC Compressive Strength CertificationA portion of the certification that the samples were tested and the corresponding results. The status field indicates 'p'ass or 'f'ail and the stress column indicates the amount of stress the samples withstood. In this case the 280 ksc samples withstood a minimum of 340 ksc prior to failure. dozer (0 votes)
