Decking as a building material has been actively used for several decades. It is a galvanized sheet that takes on a special shape during the cold rolling process. The profiles function as stiffeners, which ensures the successful use of thin metal in construction.
The popularity of the use of corrugated board is provided by such qualities as:
- quick and easy installation,
- practicality,
- durability subject to the rules of installation and use,
- possibility of installation without a lot of residues,
- the ability to select sheets of the desired size,
- attractive appearance,
- availability of the price range.
Types of corrugated board
Today, in the assortment of any company supplying roofing materials, there is a large selection of profiled sheets. Two main categories can be distinguished:
- galvanized sheet,
- colored.
By itself, galvanized steel is reliable enough for use outdoors in all weather conditions, but the application of additional anti-corrosion and polymer coatings can significantly extend the service life, increase the range of permissible temperature drops and make the material more attractive in appearance due to a variety of colors.
Depending on the purpose, there are:
- profile sheet for the construction of walls and partitions (marked "C"), used for the construction of fences, facing facades of buildings, rib height from 8 to 21 mm;
- roofing with the marking "H" has a higher wave and special drainage grooves, the height of the rib is more than 57 mm;
- universal corrugated board "NS" can be used for installation of roofs, wall cladding, etc., it is cheaper than class "H", strong enough, wave height more than 35 mm.
The main feature of the profiled sheet of different categories is the thickness of the metal, the height and shape of the waves, the presence or absence of an additional drainage groove.
How much does the profiled sheet weigh, weight 1 m2
The relatively low weight of the profiled sheet determined its useful performance properties, which make the material convenient for:
- erection of fences,
- facade cladding,
- roof decking,
- the device of partitions and walls.
To perform this work, you need to know weight m2 profiled sheet... This factor must be taken into account when calculating loads on the foundation and supporting structures, as well as when delivering and lifting material.
For the most popular and demanded types of corrugated board, there is a table
| Sheet thickness (mm) | Weight of 1 m2 of profiled sheet in useful width (kg) Unpainted / painted |

As you can see weight of professional sheet C8 dyed used for the manufacture of sandwich panels is quite low due to the small wave.
C10 profiled sheet weight only slightly more, but the scope of its application is much wider. It can be used in almost all construction areas, from pre-fabricated structures, filing ceilings and roofing to sandwich panels and building facades.
One of the most versatile and widely used modern building materials is corrugated board.
Since the material has an embossed surface, which makes it the owner of exceptional longitudinal and transverse rigidity, it is used almost everywhere.
Its other qualities are also captivating: strength, plasticity and anti-corrosion resistance.
What corrugated board is made of
For the manufacture of corrugated board, the same material is used as for metal tiles - steel sheet.
It's just that this sheet is rolled by cold rolling through other machines and the appearance of the corrugated board is different.
If the metal tile is an imitation of ceramic tiles, then the corrugated board imitates slate.
Then a layer of zinc is applied to the surface of the sheet to protect it from corrosion and a layer of polymer anti-corrosion coating.
Depending on the purposes of operation, the corrugated board is usually divided into several types:
- Brand "N". In its marking, the presence of the letter H indicates that it is a "bearing" material. The thickness of the steel sheet is the largest possible. The wave height is also maximum.
In order for this material to become even more rigid, additional grooves are made on its surface. Decking of grade N has proven itself well in the manufacture of heavy cargo containers, as well as in the construction of hangars, garages, warehouses, workshops, fences, and other facilities and structures.
It is this corrugated board that is most often used for external cladding of walls of buildings, the manufacture of gates, fences. Sometimes such a corrugated board is used for roofing work.
But this happens very rarely, since such material weighs a lot.
- Professional flooring "NS". That is, a non-existent wall material. Such material is the most versatile of the types of corrugated board. The thickness of such a profiled sheet is averaged.
Also, his wave surface has an average height. The profiled material of the "NS" brand is distinguished by its increased rigidity, and can be used for finishing ceilings, walls, ceilings of any kind, as a roofing material.
- Brand "C". Already from the marking it is clear that this is wall corrugated board, and for wall decoration such profiled sheets are most often used. The small thickness of the product greatly simplifies installation.
As a rule, such corrugated board is used in conjunction with various insulation materials: foam, eco-wool, mineral wool or natural insulation.
The profiled sheet of the "C" grade of medium and small thickness is produced. The height of the corrugation is average, which makes this material very convenient for roofing.
A roof made of this material is durable and reliable. It easily withstands any load under any impact.
Such a supporting element is often used as a flooring on scaffolding: such a material can easily withstand a large weight load.
General characteristics
For the production of cold-formed steel trapezoidal profiles, they are produced from cold-rolled steel sheets (GOST 24045-94) on bending machines. The thickness of the sheets is from 0.4 mm for wall corrugated board to 1.5 mm for supporting corrugated board.
The presence of additional stiffening ribs and grooves make this material very resistant to various aggressive environments and any type of load.
Decking grade N is used in construction everywhere.
It is also often used in restoration and repair work.
If the corrugated board is used for the device of the finishing roofing, then this material is grade H or HC.
It can easily support the weight of a person (which is very important during installation) or any thickness of snow cover.
Load, mechanical or chemical influence has practically no effect on profiled sheets.
The presence of a galvanized coating and a polymer film makes steel sheets impervious to moisture, sudden changes in temperature, and corrosion.
You can transport and install corrugated board in any weather.
Installation of corrugated board does not require complex construction tools and special equipment.
Material weight
The weight of the profiled steel sheet depends on its thickness, the thickness of the zinc and polymer coatings.
After all, each material has its own weight.
| Art. corrugated board | Thickness, mm | Length weight, kg / m | Weight, kg / m2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wall corrugated board | |||
| S8-1150 | 0,5 | 5,4 | 4,70 |

Self-tapping screws for fastening
The fastening of the profiled steel sheet to the elements of the lathing is carried out using self-tapping screws.
Or, as the builders say, self-tapping screws.
A self-tapping screw is a type of fastener, which is a steel rod with a head and a triangular external thread.
In the process of fastening, such a screw independently cuts the threads inside the hole.
This type of fastener differs from screws and screws in that the thread is applied to the entire cylindrical surface of the rod. 
To date, the range of self-tapping screws for fastening the profiled sheet is very wide.
And you should know that for each type of work there is a separate type of self-tapping screws that differ in their parameters and characteristics.
That is, on the roof and the self-tapping screw for fastening to the fence are different fasteners.
And if you get the wrong fasteners, then it is difficult to guarantee the strength and reliability of fixing the sheets.
Self-tapping screws are made of high quality stainless or galvanized carbon steel.
The self-tapping screw also includes a gasket made of neoprene.
The presence of such a gasket allows the attachment point to be sealed.
Most manufacturers of fasteners, so that the structure of the fence or roof has a more presentable appearance, cover the head of the self-tapping screw with polymer paint.
The paint is used the same as when painting the sheets.
Therefore, after installation, the self-tapping screw is practically invisible.
Types of screws for fastening
There are three types of self-tapping screws for fixing the profiled sheet:
- For fastening products to wood frames. With such a self-tapping screw, the thread pitch is rare, which makes it possible to ensure the strength of the fastener. Such a self-tapping screw can be screwed into even the hardest wood species without problems.
- For fastening the product to metal. Also, such a self-tapping screw is used if it is necessary to attach a profiled sheet to a structure that is subject to strong wind loads. The thread pitch on such a self-tapping screw is also rare, but in the manufacture of the drilling tip, a special sharpening is made, which during the production of work eliminates the violation of the structure of the material.
- For fastening additional and ridge elements on the roof. Such self-tapping screws are long.
All three types of self-tapping screws are equipped with a special drill bit, thanks to which it is not required to pre-drill a hole in the elements to be fixed.
And the hex head is easily fixed in the chuck of the screwdriver, which greatly simplifies the work process.
Weight and cost of screws
The weight of self-tapping screws and their cost depend on their diameter and length.
The measure of the weight of a self-tapping screw is a kilogram per 1000 fasteners.
Depending on the length of the product, the weight of one thousand screws can range from 18.5 to 41.67 kg. That is, one self-tapping screw can weigh from 18.5 to 41.67 grams.
When fixing the corrugated board on the roof, 9 self-tapping screws are consumed per sheet.
6 self-tapping screws are enough to fasten the sheet to the fence.
Since the sheets are laid with an overlap, some screws hold 2 sheets at the same time.
The prices for self-tapping screws also depend on the size, and are in the range of 1.6 - 3.0 rubles per unit.
Video about a roof made of corrugated board with your own hands.
Profiled sheeting is a popular building material used to form a high-quality roof covering on the roof. Before buying it, all its parameters are evaluated in order to select the optimal material. Particular attention is paid to the weight of the corrugated board, since it is important that the coating does not exert significant stress on the walls of the house.
Material features
Important! Profiled sheet is an affordable, demanded, practical and attractive roofing material, formed using rolled steel of small thickness, represented by rectangular sheets.
During its manufacture, a special press is certainly used, due to which a trapezoidal profile is squeezed out on the sheet. For its production, galvanized steel is used, and on top it is necessarily covered with polymers or various protective paints and varnishes.
Important! On the market you can find profiled sheets that are load-bearing, wall or universal, and they have significant differences in cost, specific weight and other parameters, read more about the types of profiled sheet. 
The advantages of using professional sheets include:
- low weight of corrugated board, which is less than other materials intended for the formation of the roof, therefore, the costs of transportation and formation of the rafter system are reduced;
- weight of profiled sheet per 1 m2, which is often used no more than 10 kg;
- long service life due to the resistance of the coating to corrosion, temperature changes, mold and decay;
- the material is reliable and durable due to its good bearing capacity, therefore, even a significant load from snow will not cause the destruction of the coating;
- ease and efficiency of installation of corrugated board, so the roof can be covered with this material by any owner with his own hands, and for this you do not need to use specialized tools.
Important! Due to the fact that the metal profile has a small mass, with its help a light roof is obtained, which is ideal for various structures. 
The weight of the most popular grades of material
The professional sheet is considered universal, therefore it can be used for residential buildings, temporary buildings, garages or other structures. It can have a polymer coating or a protective paint layer. It has different thicknesses and other parameters, therefore, before choosing specific sheets, it is recommended to carefully study their properties. This especially applies to their weight per square meter. Since there are many types of profiled sheet, it is required to evaluate the characteristics of each type.
Wall profiled sheet
It is intended for covering the walls of buildings, as well as for the formation of strong and reliable fences. For its production, high-quality steel is used, the thickness of which varies from 0.5 to 0.7 mm, read more: the dimensions of the corrugated board.
The weight of the wall profiled sheet depends on its thickness, so if the thickness is 0.45 mm, then the weight of the sheet per 1 sq. m is equal to 4.52 kg, but with a thickness of 0.7 mm, this figure is 6.78 kg. 
Bearing corrugated board
It has a high bearing capacity, therefore it is chosen for the construction of strong and durable hangars, pavilions or similar structures.
For its manufacture, special steel blanks are used, the thickness of which varies from 0.7 to 1 mm. Weight also depends on the thickness, so if it is 0.7 mm, then the mass will be 8.67 kg / m2, and if it is 1 mm, then the mass will be 17.17 kg / m2. 
Universal corrugated board
The weight of universal corrugated board is required to be determined most often. It is he who is used in the process of forming a roofing covering on various buildings. It is presented in numerous brands, each used under different conditions. When choosing a specific grade, the sheet thickness and operating conditions are taken into account. 
Important! Information regarding the weight of 1 m2 is necessary for the correct calculation of the main indicators and parameters of the roof frame, since if these parameters are not taken into account, then there is a high probability that the made rafter system will not cope with the loads, which guarantees the danger of living in such a house, read also : calculation of the rafter system.
Criteria for the correct choice of corrugated board
Experts say that the thicker the profiled sheet is purchased, the more reliable it is.
Important! The material of considerable thickness has good resistance to the corrosion process, withstands significant loads from wind and snow, therefore it can be used in difficult conditions for a long time.
For the correct choice of high-quality roofing material, important criteria are taken into account:
- Sheet thickness. The larger it is, the more difficult and reliable the professional sheet will be. It is advisable to choose an average indicator so that the loads on the rafter system, Mauerlat and the structure as a whole are small, but at the same time the sheets coped well with different influences.
- Metal consumption. The parameters and composition of the steel used to create the material directly affects the weight of the sheet, therefore, it is recommended to carefully study the quality of the available material before purchasing it directly. It is advisable to focus on the purchase of a premium steel grade, as this will have a positive effect on the service life and quality of the coating.
- Wave height. The higher it is, the greater the mass and bearing capacity of the profiled sheet. The high profile further reduces the usable area of \u200b\u200bthe material, which leads to an increase in its consumption during the formation of the roof covering.
- Presence of anti-corrosion coating. It ensures the resistance of the sheets to the corrosion process, but at the same time significantly increases the weight of the roof covering.
Thus, when choosing a material, you must take into account many different criteria that allow you to get a really high-quality and durable coating, read additionally: which corrugated board to choose for the roof. 
Why is the mass of the leaf determined?
The weight of this roofing material is considered small compared to other similar materials. Calculation of mass is required to solve many questions:
- what parameters should the rafter structure have so that it can cope with the mass of the roof and different loads from snow, wind and other atmospheric influences;
- what load will affect the walls and foundation of the structure, and this moment must be thought out before the direct construction of the structure;
- how will the transportation and lifting of sheets to the roof be carried out.
Important! The most popular is the corrugated board, which has a small mass, since it is suitable for different rafter systems and does not have a significant effect on the structure of the house.
Thus, to know how much corrugated board weighs is necessary for different purposes. This allows you to correctly calculate the load on the rafters and the wall of the house. Weight depends on sheet thickness and material grade. The calculation must be made before the direct purchase of sheets.
Profiled sheet weight and material dimensions
When erecting various buildings and structures, it is very important to take into account the mass of building materials, especially when constructing a roof, because in addition to its own weight, it must take up loads from wind, snow and water during rain. If the roof covering is made of profiled steel, then you need to know the weight of the profiled sheet. In addition, it is necessary to figure out what factors this value depends on, and why it is needed.
Factors affecting material weight
The weight of the profiled sheet depends on several factors:
- features of steel alloy;
- material thickness;
- profile configuration;
- dimensions of the sheet itself.
The following factors affect the weight of the product:
- The weight characteristic of the profiled sheet largely depends on the characteristics and composition of the raw materials used for its manufacture. The production technology of this material is constantly being improved, the alloy composition is improving, which makes it possible to obtain a lighter product without losing its technical characteristics.
- Another condition that affects the weight of the product is its thickness. The greater the thickness, the greater the mass of one sheet. This sheet material is produced in accordance with GOST number 24045-94, according to which profiled sheets are made with a thickness of 0.06-0.1 cm.However, some manufacturers produce products with a thickness of 0.045-1.018 cm.
- Also, the weight of a sheet of corrugated board depends on the height and pitch of the comb. If two products of the same dimensions and steel thickness differ in the characteristics of the height and pitch of the ridge, then the weight of these elements will be different. This is because, with a higher profile, there is more sheet steel per unit area, and therefore, the weight of the product increases.
- Also, the mass of the material depends on the wave configuration. The profile can be of the usual wavy shape, trapezoidal or rectangular. So, a sheet with a wavy corrugation will have less weight than a product with a trapezoidal profile configuration.
- The mass of the corrugated board depends on the width of the product. Moreover, it should be borne in mind that this value is indicated in two versions: full and working. The last of them is given taking into account the overlap of the sheets. According to GOST, sheets with a width of 64.6 cm to 106.0 cm are made. The manufacturer himself made sure that wide sheets are not very heavy, therefore, the wider the sheet, the lower the wave height.
The need to determine the mass of the material
It is especially important to know the mass of the profiled product if you are going to cover the roof with this material. Knowing how much the corrugated board weighs is necessary in order to calculate the load from the roof on the foundation, the supporting structures of the building. To perform the necessary calculations and determine the required values, you need to know exactly how much the profiled sheet weighs.
When choosing a roofing cover, very often the choice is made in favor of a profiled product, since it is strong enough, durable and has a low weight. One m2 of corrugated board (even the thickest) gives the minimum load on the roof and other structures of the building. Due to the high rigidity of the metal profile, the coating will not sag and deform under snow and wind loads. Due to the low weight, the load on the rafter system is reduced.
Sheet dimensions and weight
The highest quality corrugated board is manufactured in accordance with GOST number 24045-94. This regulatory document regulates the main dimensions of the metal profile and its weight. Each type of profiled products has its own marking. The first letter in the designation indicates the scope of use of the material, for example, C - wall, H - load-bearing, NS - universal. The letter designation is followed by a number that indicates the height of the corrugation of the profile.
The specific gravity of corrugated board can be found in the table below:
As can be seen from the table above, the C8 corrugated board, the weight of which is the minimum, is the lightest among the profiled sheets. In general, the weight of 1 m2 of a metal profile is not so big when compared with another roofing covering:
- weight of 1m2 of cement-sand piece tile is 25 kg;
- the mass of a square meter of roofing slate is 12 kg;
- the required amount of natural tiles to cover one square of the roof weighs 50 kg;
- if we compare a slate roof and a profiled sheet, the weight of the first coating is much larger and is 52 kg.
That is why, if the question arises, which lightweight roofing material to choose in order not to unnecessarily load the rafter system and the supporting structures of the building, the choice falls on the metal profile.
As you can see, among all the advantages that corrugated board has, weight and rigidity can be called the main ones. However, when choosing a roofing sheeting, it is not necessary to give preference to the sheet with the greatest thickness. It is necessary to strike a balance between the required rigidity and sufficient lightness. For household and one-story buildings, you can choose a product with a thickness in the range of 0.05-0.06 cm. The roof of a two-story private house can be covered with a metal profile 0.07-0.08 cm thick.

The weight of the profiled sheet, its value and what indicators affect it
Profiled sheet is a thin sheet material that is made by cold-rolled method with longitudinal waves extrusion on it. The latter can be in the form of a direct wave, crest or trapezoid. The huge advantage of the profiled sheet is its
- Fast and fairly simple production
- Easy installation
- Relatively light weight
At the same time, profiled sheets, especially those that are of a high class, are rigid and do not sag under the weight, both their own and the maximum permissible for them. All this makes the profiled sheet a popular material for fences, garages and other utility rooms, as well as for roofing. When choosing profiled sheets, its weight plays an important role.
Profiled sheet weight
The standard parameters of a profiled sheet are from 5 kilograms of weight for each square meter. However, this indicator is more than arbitrary. The higher the quality of the profiled material, the higher the weight of the sheets that are made from it, respectively.
The roofing profiled sheet has an average weight, although, at times, the use of thicker profiled sheets for inclined roofs is also justified. The bearing profiled sheet has a greater weight.
The strongest is the profiled sheet in which the weight of a running meter is equal (or close) to the weight of one square meter.
Indicators that affect the weight of profiled sheets
Each manufacturer indicates for which area the use of one or another profiled product will be justified. It is for the convenience of consumers that there are no standard sizes for these sheets.
In general, the indicators that affect the total weight of the corrugated board are as follows:
- Metal thickness
- Galvanized coating layer
- Wave height
The entire profiled sheet has certain markings, namely:
Some brands of profiled sheet
GOST necessarily contains the parameters of the sheet width, as well as the wave height. For example, НС35-1000 is a bearing wall profiled sheet with a wave height of up to 35 mm and a width of 1 meter. The weight of each square meter of such a sheet will be 6.4 kilograms to 8.4 kg.
Usually the manufacturer indicates the weight of his product on the packaging. It also says about the weight of not only a square, but also a running meter. The weight of the entire package may be indicated.
It is very important to know the weight of the profiled sheet before installing the profiled sheet on the roof. The roof load must be calculated correctly, otherwise serious problems may arise in the future.
Nevertheless, corrugated sheet is considered a relatively light material, therefore it is often used for installation on the roof. Read more about profiled sheet roofing here. The article will help you perform the correct installation.
Weight table for corrugated board 1 m2
If a profiled sheet is made in accordance with GOST, then the same brand will have the same parameters from different manufacturers. The table below shows the grades of the profiled sheet, sheet dimensions and weight.
Standard deviations are considered
- In length - up to 10 mm
- Along the wavelength - 0.8 mm
- Wave height - 1.5 mm
- By weight - 20 - 100 grams
Weight value for the quality of profiled sheets
It is not customary to calculate these geometric parameters, they are reference and are only needed in order to choose the right material, taking into account the tasks that will be assigned to it, as well as the climatic conditions under which the profiled sheet as part of the building structure will be used.
The moment of inertia and the moment of resistance are calculated based on the length of the axles. To achieve the specified TU result, both axes must be parallel to the planes of the upper and lower flanges of the profile. These parameters are also indicated in the extended GOST for the profiled sheet of each profiled sheet.
In general, when choosing a profiled sheet, one must take into account not only the marking (H, HC, C), but also its weight. For instance, a difference in sheet thickness of 1 millimeter gives a difference in weight of more than 16 kilograms. Thus, the HC35-1000 profiled sheet has a thickness of 0.4 to 0.8 millimeters, and the minimum weight of each square meter does not even reach 4.5 kilograms. Whereas Н153-840 has a maximum thickness of 1.5 mm, and weighs more than 21 kilograms.
Profiled sheet weight
When constructing structures from profiled sheets, it is important to know the weight of 1 m2 of profiled sheet. This parameter is important for calculating the correct roof load. What else
How much does 1m2 of corrugated board weigh
Profiled sheeting is a light roof covering, as 1 m2 of sheet weighs on average about 5 kg. This positive characteristic has made the durable material popular. The exact weight of the profiled sheet for each brand is determined individually. Let's figure out what this indicator depends on, and let's review the popular brands of this material.
Influencing factors
Many people determine the weight of a sheet of corrugated board by its size. This is not entirely true, since 2 products are of the same dimensions, but different brands have different weights. This value is determined by the thickness of the material, the shape and size of the wave, as well as the mass of the steel alloy from which it is made.
Most often it is made from galvanized metal, but alloys can be used. Each raw material has its own weight and plays one of the main roles in the formation of the mass of the finished product. Modern technologies allow using alloys of different metals in the production of profiled sheet. Due to this, the manufacturer tries to reduce material costs, but not at the expense of its strength.
Another important factor is thickness... There is a standard GOST 24045-94, according to which manufacturers produce items of 0.6-1 mm. Sometimes in retail outlets there are items of 0.45–1.18 mm.
Products of any brand have a wave. The higher its height, the heavier the product will be. So why is the weight per square meter of corrugated board of the same thickness, but with different wave heights so different? It all depends on the amount of metal falling on 1 m2 of the product. It takes more steel or alloy to make a high wave than a low profile, therefore the overall result will vary.
In addition to its height, the wave differs in its shape. The profile of the corrugated board is made rectangular, trapezoidal or traditional wave. If we take, for example, an instance with a trapezoidal profile, then its weight of 1 m2 will exceed the mass of a similar size of a wavy product.
And the last factor that needs attention is width. There are two concepts, working area and total. The difference between these two definitions is the width of the overlap. The product manufactured in accordance with GOST has a full width range of 646-1060 mm. The width is affected by the same wave height. The higher the wave, the narrower the product, but the weight of 1m2 is greater.
Review of popular brands
To find out how much a profiled sheet weighs, let's look at several popular brands often used in the construction of roofs and fences.
C21 profiled sheet is made of galvanized sheet metal. Rigidity is given by waves made in the shape of a trapezoid. Most often, this brand is used in the construction of fences and partitions. The increased rigidity of the profile does not allow sagging, which reduces the consumption of material for additional fabrication of the frame fasteners. You can find out the weight of the c21 profiled sheet with different metal thicknesses from the table. For example, the mass of 1 p / m with a thickness of 0.6 and a width of 1250 is 6.4 kg. If we take the weight of 1 m2 of a product with the same parameters, then it will also be equal to 6.4 kg.
Brand Н114
Let's determine the weight of H114 corrugated board, which is often used for the construction of roofs. It is used in regions where poor climatic conditions prevail. The material is able to withstand heavy snow load, strong gusts of wind. The large weight of the H114 corrugated board determines its high strength, which allows it to be used in the construction of non-collapsible formwork for monolithic structures. We will calculate the mass of corrugated board Н114 by the thickness of steel, which has a range of 0.7–1.2 mm. If you look at the table, you can see that the sheets of this brand are much heavier, for example, compared to the c21 brand.
Take, for example, a sheet with a thickness of 0.7. According to the table, the weight of the H114-750 corrugated board is 8.3 kg / 1 l / m. Now let's find out the weight of 1 m2 of the product. We return to the same table, where we see that the mass of corrugated board Н114 with a size of 1 m2 exceeds the index of 1 l / m and is equal to 11.10 kg. If we take 1 thick steel from steel, then its mass will be even more impressive. For example, the weight of the corrugated board Н114-750-1.0 is 15.6 kg / m2.
The H114 brand is produced with a working area of \u200b\u200b600 and 750 mm. Strength is provided by trapezoidal profile shapes. Due to the smaller dimensions, less load is applied to a sheet with a width of 600 mm, so the upper crossbar of the wave consists of 1 stiffener.
The appearance of the waves of the professional sheet c8 resembles the shape of a trapezoid. The profile is 8 mm high. The table below indicates the weight of c8 corrugated board depending on its thickness. Let's take, for example, a steel sheet with a thickness of C8-1150 0.4. From the table you can see that 1 m / p - 4.45 kg, and 1 m2 - 3.87 kg.
C8 profiled sheet is used in the construction of light structures. These can be partitions, fences of private areas and other fragile structures. The use of c8 profiled sheet as a roof covering is unjustified. It is durable, but not strong enough to withstand heavy snow loads. The professional sheet c8 gained popularity among summer residents due to its low cost, without sacrificing good performance.
Profiled sheeting H75 is used as a roof covering. The increased strength profile is able to withstand heavy loads, both vertically and horizontally. Profiled sheeting H75 is made from galvanized sheet steel. Products are available in different sizes. If we take, for example, a product with a thickness of 0.7 mm and a width of 1250, then 1 m2 will be equal to 9.8 kg. The mass of 1 m2 with a thickness of 0.9 will already be 12.5 kg. For the convenience of determining the weight of a product of brand H75, tables are used in the same way.
Grade НС35
Profiled sheeting ns 35 is made from galvanized sheet metal or galvanized metal with a protective polymer layer. The material is used for covering roofs with a slight slope, in the construction of pre-fabricated buildings, fences and other structures. Trapezoidal waveforms give the material increased strength, with a relatively low weight. If we take from the table the material of the largest thickness 0.8 mm, then 1 m2 is equal to 8.4 kg. The thinnest profiled sheet - 0.4 only 4.45 kg / m2.
From the examples considered, we can conclude that, with its high strength, the profiled sheet has a low weight, and you need to know it for the correct calculation of the roof truss system.
The weight of the profiled sheet - how much does the profiled flooring weigh 1m2
Details about the weight of the profiled sheet. How much do the sheets of corrugated board weigh? What affects the mass. Features of the application.
Usually, the weight of 1 m2 of corrugated board is 5-7 kg. The lightness of the material is one of its main advantages.
In this article, we will talk about the main benefits that can be obtained due to low weight, as well as the main parameters of some grades of material. Profiled sheeting is made from thin steel sheets that have passed the stage of profiling - extrusion of longitudinal grooves using special rollers. To know how much a profiled sheet weighs, it is necessary to take into account the thickness of the metal that was used in production.
The profile can have various shapes:
- trapezoidal;
- wavy;
- rectangular.
The weight of a sheet of corrugated board is determined by the thickness of the steel base, the type of profile (corrugation) and the height of the profile protrusion above the main plane.
Profiled sheeting has high rigidity, and this allows you to mount it without the use of additional frames. At the same time, the sheet does not sag and retains its resistance to dynamic loads. And in view of the fact that the weight of the corrugated board 1 m2 is relatively small, this can significantly reduce the load on the foundation and supporting structures.
Decking - sheet weight and associated benefits
The advantages of a professional sheet include the following:
- the specific gravity of the corrugated board is about 5-7 kg per 1 sq.m., while the same area of \u200b\u200bnatural tiles weighs up to 42 kg;
- strength and long service life. Many manufacturers issue a 10-year warranty on their products;
- since the corrugated board weight of 1 m2 is small, it is possible to save resources due to the lightening of the supporting frame;
- the appearance of the corrugated board allows you to achieve unprecedented beauty of the created structure, and due to the availability of a wide range of colors and profile shapes on the market, you can implement the most daring design decisions;
- low weight of galvanized corrugated board and correct calculation can significantly speed up the installation procedure. In addition, to work with a metal profile, you can do without the involvement of special equipment for lifting large loads.
As can be understood from the above, the high popularity of the material is due to its excellent specific gravity, as well as performance. The weight of the painted corrugated board allows you to easily carry out restoration and repair work.
So, for example, when reconstructing an old roof, you can use a C8 metal profile, which, in comparison with asbestos cement, significantly reduces the financial and labor costs for replacing and strengthening the rafter structure. And if we take into account the low cost of the material, then corrugated board often becomes the only alternative option for the installation and repair of the roof.
As mentioned above, the weight characteristic of a metal profile depends primarily on the thickness of the steel base. So, for example, with a steel thickness of 0.5 mm, the weight of a square meter of corrugated board will be about 3.8 kg. At the same time, with an increase in the thickness of the sheet by 2 times, its weight can be 17 kg (this is due to an increase in the total surface area due to the shape of the profile and the strengthening of the material with stiffness frames). In addition, it also depends on the profile of the wave and its height. Modern methods of production of metal profiles make it possible to achieve a reduction in sheet weight without losses in strength and reliability.

Characteristics of different brands of corrugated board
For clarity, consider several of the most common brands of corrugated board:
- H60
has increased stiffness and strength. This roofing corrugated board is used for covering fences, walls of non-residential premises, barriers, as well as for roofing work. Often this brand is used as a permanent formwork. There are stiffening ribs along the main body of the sheet, which allow the sheet to cope with high dynamic and static loads. H60 is also used in the construction of industrial facilities. To protect against aggressive atmospheric factors, the H60 corrugated board is covered with galvanization and a layer of polymer. Polymer coatings are designed to protect steel from temperature extremes, moisture and accidental mechanical damage. With a sheet thickness of 0.7 mm and a width of 1.25 m, one square meter of corrugated board has a weight of 8.8 kg, with a thickness of 0.8 mm - 9.9 kg, with a thickness of 0.9 mm - 11.1 kg.
- Professional flooring Н75 used for roofing work. The material is distinguished by high indicators of strength and rigidity, and thanks to the special shape of the profile, the sheets can withstand serious loads for a long period of time. This brand of corrugated board is used for the construction of horizontal and vertical planes that will be subjected to constant loads (i.e. formwork, interfloor floors, etc.). Due to galvanizing and the presence of a polymer coating, the H75 profiled flooring is practically not affected by such negative factors of snow, rain and chemicals. This profiled sheet perfectly withstands prolonged static loads. However, it does not deform. Due to its long service life, H75 corrugated board is also used for the construction of large industrial facilities. How much does a sheet of corrugated board weigh? With a thickness of 0.7 mm and a sheet width of 1.25 m, a square meter of material weighs 9.8 kg. With a thickness of 0.8 mm - 11.2 kg, and with a thickness of 0.9 mm - 12.5 kg.
- Professional flooring С21
are also made of galvanized steel sheets (read: ""). In order to impart greater rigidity to the entire area of \u200b\u200bthe sheets, they are trapezoidal formed. This material is used for various works. But the main area of \u200b\u200buse of the C21 brand is the construction of fences and various partitions (more: ""). The corrugated board has high rigidity, which prevents the structure from sagging. In view of this, there is no need to install additional elements in the structure frame. Due to the lower weight of the material, it is significantly easier to handle. So, with a sheet thickness of 0.55 mm and a standard width of 1.25 m, a square meter of material weighs only 5.9 kg, with a base thickness of 0.7 mm - 7.4 kg.
- Profiled sheeting C8
has a trapezoidal profile. The height of the corrugation is only 8 mm, which is why this brand is called "flat" metal profile. This material has found wide application in the construction of partitions and walls, fences and various lightweight structures. C8 corrugated board is one of the best types of material for building a fence around a private plot. At the same time, C8 corrugated board is not used as a roofing material and supporting structures. An exception is the carrying out of repair work and the use of corrugated board as a temporary cover for bare sections of the rafter system. Profiled sheet weight - 4.92 kg with a base thickness of 0.55 mm and 6.17 kg with a thickness of 0.7 mm.
- С10 and С10-1100 professional flooring are made of thin-sheet rolled steel of grade 01. The profile height of such a profiled sheet is only 10 mm, and the standard width is 1180 mm. With a thickness of 0.4 mm, the corrugated sheet has a weight of 3.63 kg per 1 square meter. With an increase in thickness to 0.5 mm, the weight increases to 4.46 kg.
- Professional flooring brand НС35 are made of galvanized steel or rolled sheet of grade 01. The total width of the sheets is 1060 mm. How much does the corrugated board weigh: with a base thickness of 0.4 mm, a square meter of corrugated board has a weight of 4.19 kg, with an increase in thickness to 0.8 mm, the weight increases to 7.9 kg.
A wide selection of shades and profile shapes allows you to implement almost any architectural and design solutions.
