7. MOUNTING OF CELLULAR POLYCARBONATE ON THE ROOF
Attention!
When installing the polycarbonate, it is important that the lines of the
Polycarbonate cells are located on the roof along the arcs, and on the side walls -
vertically.
Parts “D” with dimensions 2100x3250mm are used for Roof mounting. Annex 1.
7.1.
Start the installation of the Polycarbonate sheets on the roof from the ends.
Lay the joint venture on the roof so that the sheet protrudes (hangs) over the edge of
the end above the door by about
5cm
. The lateral edges of the polycarbonate (with
open honeycombs) should overlap the upper edge of the polycarbonate on the wall,
but not protrude outward, so the polycarbonate will need to be trimmed after
installation ...
7.2.
Press the sheet of the polycarbonate with a strapping tape
31
on one side of the
arc
(1)
and fix the end of the tape with a self-tapping screw
45
to the side post:
7.3
. Bend the tape in the place where two holes
(2)
were punched at a distance of
5
cm from each other so that the holes are opposite each other. Insert the
43
screw
with two
42
washers into the holes, slightly tightening the
44
nut. Pull the Steel Tie
band
31
by hand, press the
SP
tape and fix the other end with self-tapping screw
45
to the opposite post
(3)
.
7.4.
Align the Steel Tie band along the roof arch. Tension the strap by tightening
screw
43
. The strap should hold the sheet tightly against the arch.
7.5.
Mount the intermediate sheet of the polycarbonate (for a greenhouse with a
length of
6
m and more
ONLY!
) with an overlap with the previous sheet and press
down with tie straps.
7.6.
After installing all the sheets, check the correct position of the polycarbonate
sheets, the parallelism of the honeycomb lines in relation to the arches, the position
and tension of the tie straps.
Check the tension of the tie straps once a year!
