Things to know about vertical rib metal roofs

Standing seam metal roof, also known as standing seam metal roof, is a product that is still new in Vietnam, but on the world market, especially in European and American countries, they are extremely popular.

A vertical rib metal roof is a type of roof consisting of metal panels with vertical ribs (roof ridges) held in place by clips hidden underneath the roof panels. They are linked together by interlocking the ribs of adjacent panels and are completed using a zip machine without using any type of puller or screws.

Materials used are diverse such as:

Zinc: Light weight, easy to buy, belongs to the group of low-cost materials. However, zinc is very susceptible to rust and corrosion due to environmental influences.

Aluminum: aluminum panels are a popular material in the Vietnamese market, but rolled aluminum for vertical rib aluminum roofs must be imported from abroad. Light weight, non-corrosive, non-fading, suitable for all climates and geographical locations, especially coastal areas. Investment costs are average.

Copper: is one of the highest priced materials on the market. One of the biggest reasons people choose bronze is because of its striking and versatile appearance. During the use of copper, the oxide will cause the color to change over time, making the appearance of each copper roof unique. They are often used for roofs of castles, villas, and churches. Durability over 100 years.

Standing seam metal roofs can be designed with many different shapes such as:

Straight shape: Suitable for all types of roofs such as flat roofs, sloping roofs, and skewed roofs.

Curved shape: Suitable for all types of dome and curved roofs.

Tapered shape: Suitable for cone-shaped roofs.

Is a vertical rib metal roof suitable for Vietnam?

-         Vietnam is located in an area with a hot, humid and rainy tropical climate, with an average annual rainfall of 1,500mm-2,000mm. Vertical rib metal roofs using plate connections without screws will help prevent the roof system from leaking. This will prevent water infiltration when it rains, ensuring the roof does not leak.

-         Vietnam's urbanization rate is increasing, research shows that the country's urbanization rate has increased rapidly from 30.5% in 2010 to about 40% in 2020. With such growth, More and more construction projects spring up, causing part of the air pollution due to dust and dirt escaping from the construction and sticking to housing and other public buildings. A vertical rib metal roof with a smooth surface will reduce the possibility of dust accumulation, save on cleaning costs, roof maintenance and ensure the aesthetics of the building.

-         Easily install roof accessories such as solar panels, roof access doors, anti-slip systems on the roof, etc. without reducing the aesthetic value and quality of the roof.

-         With just a one-time investment, we can use the product for up to 50 years. Save on replacement or repair costs.

-         Metal panels do not pollute the environment, are completely environmentally friendly and are easily reused.
