Tiles roof support focus study: Bituminous plywood

his study is intended to improve the tile roofing system from

a carefully designed roof support. The use of tiles as roofing

materials often leads to the use of either a wooden frame or a

floor with a concrete slab. For this study, the timber framing on

which a support made of bituminous plywood for laying tiles

is retained. This bracket includes a plywood of width 1.22m,

length 2.44m and thickness 4mm covered with a cotton fiber

fabric impregnated with petroleum bitumen fluidized to 65%

by kerosene. The liquefaction is carried out at a temperature

in between 140 and 150°C. The permeability test is carried out

successfully on samples of 40x40cm of bituminous plywood

obtained after three weeks of drying. The time of observation

of the behavior of the sample is one day corresponding to

the duration of a continuous rain of 24 hours. This material is

therefore impermeable and can be used as an intermediate

support for laying the tiles.
