Advantages when using ISOBOARD®
  
-   Roof sheets are fixed to purlins through ISOBOARD®.
-   ISOBOARD® can be used as is, no lamination is required.
-   Does not compress when fixing roof sheets through the board, due to high compressive strength.
-   Water penetrating fixing holes, does not affect the board.
- Long lengths of ISOBOARD® reduce installation costs.
- The white colouring of ISOBOARD® reduces lighting requirements.
- No support is required for recommended spans. (See below)
-   ISOBOARD® will take the shape of a curved roof with a 5m radius or flatter.
- ISOBOARD® is washable.
 
  
Recommended spans for over-purlin applications:  
(allowing for max. 10mm deflection)

  
-   20mm thickness up to 1.0m
-   25mm thickness up to 1.2m
-   30mm thickness up to 1.5m
-   +40mm thickness up to 1.8m
  
Note: For S-rib Chromadek Roof-sheets the span should be reduced by 0,30m and a slip sheet should be placed between ISOBOARD® and roof sheets.
  
  
How is ISOBOARD
®
installed in over-purlin applications?
  
-   Adjacent boards must join on the purlin. and a gap of 5 mm should be allowed between butt ends of adjacent boards.
-   A gap of 5mm should be allowed between butt ends of adjacent boards.
-   Slip sheets should be used to separate ISOBOARD® from steel roof sheets with a chromadek finish.
- Roof battens are predrilled and fixed through ISOBOARD® to rafters using coachscrews in case of double volume designed homes.
  
  
Site Handling of ISOBOARD®:
  
-   Product to be handled with care to prevent damage, and be stored under a roof, away from UV rays and dust.
-   Stains can be wiped off with a wet rag dipped in softened water.
-   Boards installed during construction of a building should be pre-wiped with a wet rag dipped in softened water.
  
  
NOTE: Fitting boards between top-hat sections is not deemed to be an over purlin installation. See suspended ceiling section.
