Long Span Stone-Coated Metal Roof Tiles

Long Span Stone Coated Metal Roof Tiles are roofing materials made from an aluminum-zinc coated steel base, with a surface covered in natural colored stone granules treated with high-temperature curing. They combine the durability of metal roofing with the aesthetic appeal of natural stone, offering excellent wind resistance, waterproofing. Its a variety of color options suitable for modern architectural styles.

As the length of Long Span Roof Tiles is extended, the number of joints is reduced and the overall waterproof performance is improved. Additionally, their larger span allows them to cover more roof area during installation, reducing construction time and costs. They are primarily used for large-scale buildings, regions with harsh climates, and projects requiring high waterproof standards.

Advantages

Wind Resistance: Long span tiles perform exceptionally well in harsh weather conditions such as typhoons and hurricanes, making them especially suitable for buildings in wind-prone environments.

Waterproofing: Compared to shorter tiles, long span tiles have fewer seams, resulting in superior waterproofing, particularly in rainy and humid regions. This feature is a key selling point for high-end customers.

High Installation Efficiency: The larger coverage area of long span tiles reduces installation time and labor costs, making them ideal for large-scale buildings and high-end projects that require quick construction.

Long-Term Maintenance Savings: With a long lifespan and low maintenance requirements, long span tiles offer significant savings on repair and replacement costs over time, despite their higher initial cost.

Purlins: By increasing the spacing between purlins, fewer purlins are required, leading to cost savings.

Disadvantages 

Larger Volume: Due to their longer size, long span tiles require more space during transportation compared to shorter tiles. This means fewer tiles can be transported in a single shipment, leading to higher transportation costs.

Inconvenient Handling: Long span tiles are less flexible to handle, especially in narrow or complex construction environments. They are more prone to damage or scratches during transportation and unloading, increasing the difficulty of handling.

Requires a Professional Installation Team: Although the installation of long tile covers a large area and saves part of the construction time, due to its large volume and high requirements for tile connection, it is difficult for non-professionals to ensure the installation quality.

Poor Adaptability for Complex Roofs: For roofs with complex shapes and varying angles, long span tiles require cutting during installation, which increases time and labor costs. On sloped or curved roofs, the difficulty of installation has increased significantly.

ANGULAR RIDGE TILE,ROUND RIDGED TILE, Ridge Tiles: Ridge tiles are used to cover the ridge line of the roof, providing sealing and waterproofing while also giving the roof a neat and aesthetically pleasing finishing touch.

MOUNTAIN WALL PANEL: Used to close the gap between the roof and the gable end, preventing wind and rain from entering the interior of the roof while enhancing the beauty of the roof edge.

Eaves Tiles: Eaves tiles are used to close off the eaves, providing wind and waterproofing protection to prevent rainwater from flowing back into the roof.

GUTTER PLATE: Gutters are designed to collect and direct rainwater away from the roof, preventing water from flowing directly onto the building's walls, which could damage the walls.

FLOOD PLATE: Used to prevent rainwater from seeping into the building through gaps between the roof and walls or other protrusions, ensuring waterproofing at roofing junctions.

FLAT PLATE: Can be manually cut and customized for different functions in detailed areas.

Long Span Stone-coated Roofing Sheet 

Ideal for large-scale, modern-style buildings, especially in regions with harsh climates or where high waterproofing performance is required. The simple roof design maximizes the advantages of long span tiles.

Large-Scale Buildings: Long span tiles cover a large area, reducing the number of tiles needed and improving installation efficiency, making them suitable for large, flat roof projects.

Buildings with High Waterproofing Requirements: Long span tiles have fewer seams and offer excellent waterproofing, effectively preventing rainwater leakage, making them particularly suitable for areas with harsh weather conditions.

Buildings with Simple Roof Structures: Long span tiles are best suited for smooth and straightforward roof designs, reducing the difficulty of cutting and installation.

Short Span Stone-coated roofing Sheet

 These are more suitable for traditional buildings with complex structures or projects requiring partial repairs. Their flexibility allows them to adapt to varying roof shapes.

Buildings with Complex Roof Structures: Short span tiles, being smaller and more flexible, are ideal for roofs with intricate designs and varying angles. They can better accommodate irregular roof shapes.

Local repair projects: Short tiles are easy to replace and repair locally, without the need for large-scale demolition, effectively reducing repair costs.

Small buildings: Short tiles are flexible to install, suitable for small roofs, and easier to carry and handle, suitable for small building construction.

Long Span Stone Coated Metal Roof Tiles are particularly suitable for large-scale, harsh climate or high waterproofing demand construction projects due to their waterproof, wind-resistant and efficient installation advantages. Its long span design reduces seams, improves waterproof performance, and saves installation time and cost by covering a large area, which is particularly suitable for simple and flat roof structures. Although there are certain challenges in transportation and handling, the overall cost savings and durability of long tiles make them very competitive in the high-end market.

In contrast, short stone-coated metal roof tiles are more flexible and suitable for complex and variable roof structures and local repair needs. Short tiles are small, easy to carry and flexible to install, so they can better adapt to small construction projects with irregular roof structures. Both have their own advantages in different building types, and customers can choose the most suitable tile type according to their building needs.
