Mono Pitched Roof Ventilation

Slating and tiling for pitched roofs and vertical cladding code of practice recommends that roof ventilation be provided in accordance with bs 5250.

Mono pitched roof ventilation.

Has an adhesive and flexible aluminium flashing which is designed to form to roofing profiles and prevent water ingress on any pitch roof. To provide ventilation opening points can usually be provided on the following areas of a pitched roof. Mono pitched roofs are also known by the names of skillion roofs shed roofs pent roof and lean to roof. Whilst it is possible to retrofit passive ventilation solutions to existing buildings it is highly recommended to incorporate passive ventilation during the design phase of any new building project.

To reduce moist air entering the roof space. While the gabled roof is always pitched in two directions the mono pitch always slants in a single direction. 3944123 divisions of the building product design group. They differ considerably from the conventional gabled roofs in shape and construction.

There are three main types of flat roof construction namely cold deck warm deck and inverted warm deck the only one of which requires ventilation being the cold deck see figures 6 and 7. Figure 5 mono pitch roof next to be discussed will be flat roof construction. Additional continuous 5mm ventilation at high level for roofs where pitch exceeds 35 or for roofs of any pitch with a span of more than 10m for lean to or mono pitch roofs. Through the design and installation of specific product combinations an unimpeded passive ventilation system is created for a skillion mono pitch roof any degree pitch the following product combinations are recommended.

The ab20 form part of a passive ventilation system that works year round with no. Divisions of the building product design group. Gaps should be sealed where services pass through the ceiling. The vent apron vent is a polypropylene vent which enables warm air to escape from the lower roof void or through the barge detail of a mono pitch skillion roof.

G2500n vent over fascia vent which allows calculated airflow into the roof cavity vb20 vent vented batten performs two functions. Achieving calculated continuous and unimpeded airflow through the roof cavity is relatively straight forward. These ventilation requirements vary based on the circumstances of the building and the interpretation of these requirements by bs 5250.
