Surface to be covered
Brasilit Ondulada (with thickness between 6 and 8 mm) is a
sheet to be installed on flat or polyhedral surfaces.
On polyhedral surfaces, the angle between two consecutive
sheets of a single row should not be above 6º.

Forms and types of supports
The support that holds the Brasilit Ondulada sheet can be
made of wood, metal or concrete, with a minimum width of
40 mm, always following the slant of the sheets.

Brasilit Ondulada sheet should be used in roofing with slant
of 5º (8.7%) for sheets with 6 and 8 mm, or 10º (17.6%) for
sheets with thickness of 5 mm. However, when used on slant
under 10º (17.6%) (t = 6 or 8 mm), special care should be
taken (see table “Slant and Overlay”).
15˚ ≤ i < 75˚
* Only in case of side closing at 90º it is allowed the longitudinal overlay
of 100 mm.
** Only for 6 mm thickness.
To obtain greater use of the sheets, the most recommended
slant is 15º (27%).
Note:
For the sealing cord, use Selamax – Adhesive PU (Polyurethane).

Service
The sheets assembly is made from bottom to top (from the
eave to the ridge), in rows that are perpendicular to the
supporting purlins. The perfection and aesthetics of the
sheets assembly is a result of the perpendicularity of the rows
to the purlins and the alignment of the courses.

Assembly direction
The sheets should be settled in the opposite direction to
the prevailing winds of the region to ensure greater roofing
sealing.
Overlay
Longitudinal overlay is the overlapping of sheets at their
length. Side overlay is the overlapping of the sheets at
their width, and may be 1/4 wave or 1¼ wave (for 6 mm
thickness).

Method of the cut corners
To prevent the reassembly of four thicknesses, the corners
of the intermediate sheets should be cut diagonally at the
overlays.
The corner cutting is mandatory because it avoids the
flaws that allow the entrance of light and water, besides
deformation of sheets.
Precautions during the assembly
 Do not step directly on the sheets. Place lumbers in both
directions to allow free moving of the assemblers.
The cut is usually done with a saw or portable electric cutting
tool equipped with disc for ceramics, concrete or marble.
Burrs should be smoothed out with rasp or sandpaper.
 The lumbers should be placed in a way to distribute the
load throughout the supporting spots of the sheets.
The use of a mould makes it easier to mark the cutting line.
 Use appropriate PPEs to install the sheets.
 Do never leave the sheets loose on the roof.

Sheet drilling
The sheets can be drilled for the passage of tubes in a
diameter of up to 250 mm. Drilled sheets should have
additional supports (see picture below).
b
Such drillings should be performed with high-speed steel drill,
saw and rasp for final adjustments.
A sealing system should be provided with metal skirt and
sealing materials.

Maximum of

How to cut the sheets
To cut small amounts of sheets, use a saw, a handsaw or
nippers. The longitudinal cut of the sheets can be made by
twist, provided they have been previously grooved by a sharp
metal (widia), at a depth of at least 1mm.
