ROOFING System Solutions for Roofs

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

Foreword

If the best material curtails creativity, what good is it? If the best idea cannot be realized, what good is it? Materials that foster creativity and lend form to ideas are required for individual solu-tions, as are consulting services that take technical perfection, structural physics and aesthetics into consideration.

RHEINZINK offers all of the above. Not only does the name stand for unique creative material to clad roofs and fa-cades, but also for exemplary service to implement your ideas – regardless of the size of your project – big or small. We offer solutions that are as unique as your project. A comprehensive range of RHEINZINK roofing, facade, and our solar system product, along with diverse installation techniques, make it easy to find a perfect solution for every design.

RHEINZINK is extremely malleable; it is compatible with every architectural environment and its aesthetic is timeless. Furthermore, requirements for sustain-able building using natural material are met without difficulty. RHEINZINK is ab-solutely maintenance and service free. Its lifetime comprises several generations and that, in and of itself, sets standards; its ecological balance is exemplary.

The examples in this brochure illustrate the design potential of RHEINZINK, along with various options available to you by using this ecological material.

RHEINZINK-Double Standing Seam

The double standing seam is a further development of the original hollow folded joint or single standing seam. This reliable system has been referenced in technical literature since 1899 and is the top choice for roof pitches from 3° to 25°. Here, the name “double standing seam“ characterises one of the conven-tional types of longitudinal joints above the water level. A fine-lined seam height of 25 mm is rainproof without any ad-ditional measures. The double standing seam, manufactured with pre-profiled panels, has gained international recogni-tion. Seams are folded and closed manu-ally or with a seaming machine. Custom shapes such as convex and concave curves and conical panels are produced without difficulty. Thanks to a multitude of detail variations, the double standing seam emphasizes both traditional and modern architectural design.

RHEINZINK-Angled Standing Seam

Within conventional sheet metal tech-niques, the angled standing seam is a relatively new development; it has only been referenced in technical literature since the beginning of the 20th Century. Closing the seam of a pre-profiled panel is very easy compared with the double standing seam. The angled standing seam is completed simply by folding in one leg. It is particularly suitable for vis-ible design areas on metal roofs where the pitch is greater than 25°, as well as for rounded parapets, attics or mansard roofs – in a conventional vertical, diago-nal or horizontal application. As the an-gled standing seam looks wider than the double standing seam, it lends a vibrant, distinctive structure to large surface pro-jects.

RHEINZINK-Click Roll Cap

The roll cap system with battens is one of the more traditional of today’s prevailing sheet metal work techniques. The name “Click Roll Cap System“ stands for a type of longitudinal joint, whereby the RHEIN-ZINK-Click Roll Cap Fastener, made of galvanized steel, is used as a fastener between the panels. Both fastening al-ternatives are covered with a roll cap. Efficient system installation is telling. Pre-fabricated adjustable profiles support the design quality and sophisticated look. The dominant longitudinal joints typical of the click roll cap system create a strong structural effect; the interplay of light and shadow is striking and charming. This lends itself to interesting design possibili-ties for both roofs and large curtain walls. An even greater wealth of variations ex-ists when the roll cap system is combined with double standing seam techniques.

RHEINZINK-Tiles

Tiles are becoming more and more po-pular for roofing as well. Small RHEIN-ZINK-Tiles (square and diamond-shaped) provide secure and aesthetically pleas-ing solutions, even for geometrically complicated building designs. Dormer, chimney head and roof edge cladding counts as part of conventional tile utiliza-tion. RHEINZINK-Flat-Lock Tiles are most effective for large roof areas and curtain walls. These represent a further develop-ment of the diamond-shaped and square tiles; they are impressive, not only be-cause of their aesthetic appeal, but be-cause of the design benefits. Using dif-ferent sizes of tiles opens up a multitude of facade design possibilities. The bright rolled version provides more design op-tions, because the natural weathering of the shiny material will vary from tile to tile, which can be quite striking.

RHEINZINK-CLASSIC The natural material in its most original form

RHEINZINK-CLASSIC is the most origi-nal of all material options. The bright rolled version has proven itself for over 50 years of appliacation. Depending on the weather conditions, over time a typical blue-grey patina is formed on the naturally shiny metallic surface. The pati-na gradually becomes more and more distinctive and develops a unique surface character.

A durable coating allows a wide range of colours and opens up a variety of design options for architects, planners, builders and trade customers.

Natural weathering compensates for any installation-related scratches. Only the RHEINZINK-prePATINA and the RHEINZINK-CLASSIC lines offer this self-healing effect. They are environ-mentally friendly and absolutely mainte-nance-free.

100 % SELF-HEALING100 % MAINTENANCE-FREE Only available from RHEINZINK

Only RHEINZINK with its CLASSIC and prePATINA line offers three entirely natural material options made with titanium zinc!

THE WORLD'S ONLY NATURALLY PRE-WEATHERED SURFACES

Only RHEINZINK has a special process in which the blue-grey or graphite-grey colour of the natural patina is achieved naturally in production. As the inventors, we called this unique pickling process “pre-weathering“. Virtually impercep-tible to the human eye, atmospheric in-fluences over time create a natural pro-tective patina that reliably protects the product. In production, any use of arti-ficial coatings, varnishes or phosphating is avoided completely. The prePATINA line products are the only ready-made natural surfaces in the entire global zinc construction market.
