C8 corrugated sheeting – characteristics and load calculation. Parameters and scope of application of C8 corrugated sheets Technical requirements for C8 corrugated sheets

There are dozens of types of profiled sheets. We propose to consider wall corrugated sheet C8, what is its price per meter, overall dimensions (weight, thickness), manufacturing methods and scope.

Production

Galvanized corrugated sheet C8 with a polymer coating is cold rolled; a profile rolling machine and other similar equipment are used for its production, detailed description below. According to GOST 14918, it comes unpainted, but GOST 30246 allows the use of enamel paint (protective or decorative).

In order to produce C8 corrugated sheets, an automated line (mill) is required, which cannot be your own or home production. This is a system of machines and machines that alternately perform their functions. Initially, the material is placed in a sheeter and profile rolling machine of the A9518 or A9521 series. This fully automatic system rolls the future flooring, brings it to the required parameters, after which the sheet of metal is moved to special guillotine shears, which cut it to the required length. From the shears, the sheets are delivered to receiving devices, which directly package them into rolls or bundles.

The material used is ready-made thin steel with a galvanized and cleaned surface. If necessary, a painting machine is also added to this range of machines, which also uses either polyester or special paints with protective properties on request. The steel for corrugated sheeting is called a pin and comes in different thicknesses. Therefore, if necessary, the manufacturer can provide you with the opportunity to produce profile sheets in accordance with the necessary and stated requirements.

The creation of corrugation is carried out on a rolling table; it has special parts that, through adjustment, acquire the required shape, and then, through pressure, we obtain a corrugated surface.

Specifications

The profiled sheet can be double-sided or single-sided. Roofs or greenhouses are mainly covered with one-sided coating; there are various ways to use it. It should be noted that in this case, C8 grade corrugated sheeting should be checked very strictly, especially its back side. Some damage on the inside is allowed, as long as the profile does not lose its qualities. These damages also have their own standards and permissible parameters:

  • depth no more than 0.5 mm;
  • there are no cracks on the surface;
  • the paintwork (if any) is not damaged;
  • the total diameter of one dent is no more than 10 mm.

In the photo below we have prepared a comparison of C8 polyester (PE) and galvanized corrugated sheets; here are the approximate prices for these varieties, at which you can buy sheets, useful and original area and other information. Average density – 200 g/m3.


Table of characteristics of corrugated sheets s8

They are very strict when it comes to producing profiles according to geometric indications; an error of no more than 0.1 mm is allowed for sheets up to 0.7 thick. You need to know that the pitch size of such sheets is not controlled (building materials of the rolling production method are not checked for overall curvature, level of bending, etc.), but the crescent-type pattern should be no more than 1 meter - 1 mm, taking into account length 6 meters. Profile sheets are cut diagonally as required, and in this case the error is also not taken into account.

Rolled sheet C8 has a fairly wide range of colors, it can be yellow, blue, green, white, red, etc. Ask a consultant to show you the catalog and specify the colors, for example, the brown range has several shades. Basically, the colors are relatively dark or neutral, which look great both when installing the sheet on the fence and when installing the roof.


The most important characteristic of a sheet is its density. Using this indicator, you can create the following comparative table:

Profiled painted and simply galvanized decking is used as a fence sheet, along with metal tiles and siding. It is not used in extreme weather conditions and high vibrations (i.e. in production).

Price overview

One of the key characteristics of corrugated sheeting is its price; we suggest considering how much a square meter of material costs in cities of Russia and neighboring countries:

The difference in price is insignificant, but we have provided approximate wholesale prices; in any case, check the cost with a consultant before purchasing. In addition, the price can change dramatically depending on the manufacturers, for example, sheets of such brands as atalogue, Ecosteel, fine, lang, naive, sayga, stone, xx, as well as an analogue of domestic corrugated sheeting - the ral 3020 series, have proven themselves quite well.

The cost of corrugated sheets directly depends on the country of manufacture, for example, on our market you can find profile sheets made in China, Korea, and Ukraine. Our recommendations, many companies sell their sheets with delivery, we advise you to buy profiles from the manufacturer, such sales are carried out at any metallurgical plant.

Advantages and disadvantages

Naturally, C8 corrugated sheeting has its advantages and disadvantages.

The advantages include:

  • relatively low price;
  • easy installation and weight (on average, one square meter of flooring weighs no more than 5 kilograms);
  • wide range of applications (it can be used for covering brick walls, as a roofing material or raw material for making fences, and gates are made from it);
  • due to its low weight, installation on a wooden frame is possible;
  • it is even used to cover cars (in Toyota Venza, for example);
  • can be fastened with self-tapping screws, rivets and screws;
  • simple fastening scheme, no specialist instructions required;
  • corrugated sheeting has fire-resistant properties, so it is used if you need to cover a chimney or the walls of a hot shop.

The disadvantages of profile flooring include:

  • does not tolerate long-term loads (many roofers therefore have problems installing it);
  • with prolonged wind it can change its position and alignment (wind deformation);
  • it is difficult to install on a stone or cascade;
  • not suitable for construction in vibration zones (workshops, factories, etc.).
  • requires fastening with screws or self-tapping screws with washers.

Despite such a complex manufacturing technology, there is no cheaper corrugated sheet yet. Moreover, its installation is inexpensive. Marking: c8 115-t, c8 series 1150. Before purchasing, be sure to ask the seller for a quality certificate, or better yet, if you can view it in the catalog without a trip to the warehouse.

Corrugated sheet C8-1150 is one of the most versatile profiles, widely used in modern construction. C8 corrugated sheet is the most economical corrugated sheet; it is used as wall cladding material, as well as for the construction of fences and installation of suspended ceilings. Despite the fact that its load-bearing capacity is relatively small, galvanized C8 corrugated sheeting is often used for installation of roofing coverings on pitched roofs with an angle of inclination greater than 30-40°.

Production of C8 corrugated sheets: main dimensions and quality requirements for finished products

C8 corrugated sheets for fences and roofing are made by cold rolling in accordance with GOST 24045-94 and TU 1122-079-02494680-01 from thin sheet steel, with a thickness of 0.5 to 0.7 mm. The following raw materials are used:

  1. Cold rolled steel coils grades 01 and 220-350 according to GOST R 52246-2004 with zinc protective coating according to GOST 14918.
  2. Galvanized steel with polymer coating according to GOST R 52146-2003 and steel with paint and varnish coating according to GOST 30246.

The line on which galvanized C-8 corrugated sheets are produced includes the following equipment:

  • an unwinder on which a roll of sheet steel is installed;
  • forming machine (often called a rolling mill);
  • guillotine shears;
  • receiving device;
  • oil station;
  • remote control with automatic control system.

The entire production process is fully automated; the function of shift personnel is to control the production process and monitor the operation of the equipment.

Profiled sheet S-8 – profile dimensions

Profiled sheet c-8 has a surface with corrugations in the form of trapezoids with a height of 8 mm, a base width of 62.5 mm and a distance between corrugations of 52.5 mm. On modern rolling mills that produce C8 corrugated sheets, the dimensions of the finished product sheet can be from 0.5 to 12 m.

The standard regulates the following requirements for the characteristics of metal profiled sheet C8:

  1. Corrugated roofing sheet C8 on the front side may have minor abrasions and damage that do not affect the integrity of the protective coating.
  2. Profiled sheet S-8 may have the following deviations: profile height ±1.0 mm, sheet width ±8.0 mm and sheet length ±10.0 mm.
  3. Corrugated sheeting for the S-8 fence should not have a crescent shape of more than 1.0 mm per 1.0 m of profile length for a sheet length of up to 6.0 m and no more than 1.5 mm for a sheet length of more than 6.0 m.
  4. 8 mm corrugated sheeting should not have sheet waviness on flat areas of more than 1.5 mm and 3.0 mm on the bends of the sheet edges.

Galvanized corrugated sheet C-8 is marked in accordance with the requirements of GOST 24045-94. Thus, the designation “profiled sheet S-8-1150-0.5” is deciphered as follows:

  • C - wall;
  • 8 — profile trapezoid height, mm;
  • 1150 — useful (working) profile width;
  • 0.5 — metal thickness of the original rolled steel billet;

Application of C8 corrugated sheets

C8 corrugated sheet is not used in load-bearing structures, since the ability of a profiled sheet to withstand load depends on the height of the wave, and 8 mm is the smallest value. Therefore, such corrugated sheeting is mainly used for the following tasks:

  • finishing of building facades;
  • production of sandwich panels;
  • production of auxiliary buildings on sites by private developers: warehouse, barn, utility block, shower, toilet and others;
  • construction of fences in areas where strong gusty winds are not typical.

To solve these problems, C8 profiled sheet with a polymer coating is especially relevant. It is aesthetically pleasing and has a longer service life than the galvanized version. Thus, polyester applied to C8 corrugated sheeting extends its service life from 10-15 years to 20-30, that is, approximately twice. If you use pural as a coating, then the service life of the profiled sheet can easily reach 50 years or more.

In addition to the increased service life, C8 corrugated sheeting with a polymer coating made of plastisol is resistant to mechanical damage, since the protective coating is applied in a layer of 200 microns. This profiled sheet is good for use in areas characterized by hail, frequent dust storms and other atmospheric phenomena that can damage the surface of the material.

Profiled sheet C-8 with a polymer coating made of PVDF is not so protected from mechanical damage, but it is chemically resistant to acids, alkalis and other active substances. Therefore, such corrugated sheeting is used in industrial regions, especially if production is chemical, near busy highways and on the banks of salty reservoirs.

In addition, S-8 polymer corrugated sheeting can be double-sided, so the fence will look equally good both outside and inside. In addition, double-sided coating extends service life.

Profiled sheeting S-8 - technical characteristics and dimensions

Profiled sheet C8, due to its low weight, is very convenient to install. For example, when constructing a fence from corrugated sheet C8-1150-0.6, the weight of one square meter of fencing will be only 5.57 kg. The same applies to the roof, and the lower the weight of the roof covering, the cheaper the rafter system.

The cutting dimensions of C8 corrugated sheets can be from 0.5 to 12.0 m, which makes it possible to reduce to a minimum the number of installation joints when using this material for roofing of residential buildings. How much corrugated sheet C8 weighs can be seen in the table below.

The working width of the C8 profiled sheet is determined as the difference between the full width and the amount of the installation longitudinal overlap with adjacent sheets.

When calculating the purchase volume of C8 corrugated sheets, the weight of the batch is determined as follows: the mass of C-8 corrugated sheets is multiplied by the length (area) of the sheet and by the total number of sheets.

The table below shows the data necessary to calculate the strength of structures made from C8 corrugated sheets.

Notes

  1. The table shows the cost of profiled sheets made from rolled steel grade 01 in accordance with GOST R 52246-2004 (ON steel in accordance with GOST 14918-80).
  2. For painted profiled sheet S-8, the price is indicated for a profile with a polymer coating made of polyester.
  3. When calculating the costs of C8 corrugated sheeting, the price per sheet is determined by multiplying the price of one linear meter by the length of the corrugated sheet.

In the table below, the cost of C8 corrugated sheets is indicated based on average market prices. You can buy C8 corrugated sheeting by first checking its cost at the time of purchase from the seller or a regional representative of the corrugated sheeting manufacturer.

S-8 corrugated sheeting with a polymer coating is more expensive than galvanized sheeting, and the price can differ by 20% or 200% - it all depends on the type of polymer used. Thus, the most expensive pural costs 500-550 rubles per 1 m² with a metal profile thickness of 0.5 mm, which is more than twice the price of a simply galvanized version. On the other hand, the price for C8 corrugated sheeting with polyester coating is shown in the table, and the difference is only 30%.

When buying a C8 profiled sheet, the price of which is significantly lower than the market average, be sure to request a certificate in order to check the origin of the product using the batch number.

Sometimes corrugated sheeting manufacturers sell substandard products at reduced prices. This material can be used to install a fence on the internal boundaries of the site or to build sheds and various outbuildings. However, do not purchase C8 polymer corrugated sheeting if its surface is damaged - in this case it will corrode very quickly and will not last very long.

By combining C8 corrugated sheets of various colors and shades, you will make your house attractive and elegant, and fencing your garden plot from this material will be quite durable and reliable.

Home improvement begins with the right materials. An excellent solution would be corrugated sheeting. This material has such qualities as durability, reliability, strength and has an attractive price. Also not the least factor is the fairly light weight of the corrugated sheet. This article will describe in more detail the weight of 1 m2 of corrugated sheet.

Features of the profiled sheet

A profiled sheet is made from trapezoidal, wave or ridge profiles that are pressed onto it using a special press. To improve its anti-corrosion qualities, it is treated with a layer of polymer or paint coating.

Basically, corrugated sheeting is intended for But also corrugated sheeting has found wide application for the installation of fences, canopies and other premises. It is also used as a material for covering walls.

Advantages of a profiled sheet

Corrugated sheeting has a wide range of advantages. The main advantages of corrugated sheets:

  • Light weight. On average, the weight of 1 m2 of corrugated sheet varies between 7-9 kg. This greatly facilitates both transportation and construction work.
  • Durability of the profiled sheet. The material tolerates temperature fluctuations well, does not rot or mildew, and is resistant to corrosion.
  • Strength of the material. Can withstand heavy loads due to its high load-bearing properties.
  • Ease of use. Installation can be performed without specialized equipment, and the standard sheet size allows you to economically cover a roof of any area.
  • Variety of colors. It comes in many colors, allowing you to choose a color to suit every taste.

Types of corrugated sheets and their weight

Profiled sheets are used for various types of construction. Therefore, each of them has a number of characteristics, thanks to which you can easily select the necessary corrugated sheet for any area of ​​use.

There are load-bearing, wall and universal profiled sheets. They differ in both their dimensions and weight. Data on the dimensions of corrugated sheets can be found from its markings:

  • The first letter indicates the area of ​​application. The letter “N” means load-bearing, the letter “C” means wall, and the letter combination “NS” means universal.
  • The first number is the height of the corrugation in mm.
  • The second number is the width of the profiled sheet in mm.
  • The third number is the thickness of the corrugated sheet in mm.

Depending on the brand, profiled steel sheet has a different weight of 1 square meter. The smallest weight of one m2 of corrugated sheet starts from 4 kg. Universal profiled sheet usually has the highest weight - up to 21 kg per 1 m2.

Wall corrugated sheeting: description of popular brands

Profiled sheets marked “C” are used mainly for wall cladding, but are also used for the construction of fences, partitions, fencing and other similar objects. A profiled sheet is made from a steel layer of metal with a thickness of 0.50-0.70 mm, and has a profile height in the range of 8.0-44.0 mm. The weight of 1 m2 of corrugated sheets ranges from 3.87-8.40 kg.

Profiled sheet marked C8 used for decorative wall cladding, as well as for the construction of light structures, partitions and other fragile objects. It has a profile “wave” height of 8 mm. To produce C8 corrugated sheets, I use profiled galvanized steel corrugation, which is coated with polymer materials. The weight of 1 m2 of C8 corrugated sheet is in the range of 3.86-7.3 kg.

Profiled sheet marked C21 used for wall cladding, also for fence construction and roofing work. Made from galvanized metal. The profiled sheet has increased rigidity due to profile stamping. The “wave” of the profile is made in the shape of a trapezoid and has a height of 21 mm. The weight of 1 m2 of profiled sheet C 21 is from 4.44 to 8.45 kg.

Load-bearing corrugated sheet

A profiled sheet marked “H” is called load-bearing or roofing. It is used, respectively, for roofing work, as well as for the construction of hangars, fences, shopping areas and other structures with a long service life. This profiled sheet has increased load-bearing qualities. For its production, steel corrugated sheets with a thickness of 0.70-1.0 mm are used, and the profile height ranges from 57-114 mm. The weight of 1 meter of square corrugated sheet will be from 8 to 17 kg, depending on its thickness.

Profiled sheet brand H60 Most often used for roofing work. But it is also used for installing permanent formwork and some other construction projects. The weight of 1 m2 of H60 corrugated sheet varies between 8.17-11.1 kg, depending on its thickness.

H75 has gained the greatest popularity among other brands due to its higher mechanical characteristics. Sheets with this marking can withstand heavy loads both vertically and horizontally. Most often, such profiled sheets are used for: Corrugated sheets are made from zinc-coated steel, with a thickness of 0.66 to 0.90 mm and a weight of 1 square meter within the range of 9.2-12.5 kg.

Universal corrugated sheeting: description of popular brands

The universal profiled sheet is marked “NS” and has average technical characteristics. Thanks to this, corrugated sheeting can be used for any type of work, but most often it is used for roofing. Corrugated sheets are produced with a thickness of 0.56-0.81 mm and a corrugation height that can be no more than 44 mm, and the weight ranges from 6.30 to 9.40 kg.

Profiled sheeting brand NS35 used for covering roofs with a slight slope, constructing fencing, fences, and various prefabricated objects. It is made of sheet material coated with zinc or galvanized material with a polymer layer. The trapezoidal profile provides increased strength. The profiled sheet has a thickness from 0.40 mm to 0.80 mm. The weight of 1 m2 of corrugated sheet also depends on the thickness and ranges from 4.46-8.41 kg.

H44 grade corrugated sheeting is used for the construction of various roofing works. Due to its high profile (44 mm) it has increased rigidity. The thickness of the profiled sheet is 0.7 mm and 0.8 mm. Accordingly, the mass of 1 m2 will be 8.30 kg and 9.40 kg.

Weight table for different grades of corrugated sheets

Most often, different manufacturers have the same brand with the same characteristics. This is due to the fact that they are manufactured in accordance with GOST 24045-94. The table below shows the brands of corrugated sheets and their sizes.

Permissible deviations for the following parameters:

  • length - 10 mm
  • corrugation height - 1.5 mm
  • profile width - 0.8 mm
  • weight - 20-100 grams.

The most reliable sheet is considered to be the one with a mass of 1 m 2 and the mass of a linear meter are almost the same.

In general, when choosing a profiled sheet, you need to know not only its parameters, but also its weight. Thus, a difference of 1 mm in sheet thickness can equal a difference in weight of over 15 kg. For example, the weight of 1 m2 of corrugated sheet is 0.7can be from 6.5 kg to 9.8 kg.

Modern building materials have made leaps forward in terms of technical characteristics and operational features in recent years. The same applies to corrugated sheets. One of the most popular is the C8-1150 model. It is universal and at the same time can be purchased at more than affordable prices. Most often it is used in the following cases:

  • for the construction of fences;
  • for installation of suspended ceilings;
  • as a facing material for walls or ceilings;
  • as a roof covering.

Manufacturing standards according to GOST

As you know, the quality standard for any building material is GOST. Only corrugated sheets that have been approved can be used in construction.
For corrugated sheets of category C-8, one of the manufacturing features of which is cold rolling, GOST 24045-95 has been established. The initial raw materials for manufacturing can be:

  • cold-rolled steel coils of grades 01 and 220-350, for which the following position is established according to GOST - 52246-2004. The steel has a protective zinc lining (GOST 14918);
  • zinc steel with a polymer coating with a position in accordance with GOST - 52146 steel with a coating of paint and varnish (30246).

The above-mentioned corrugated sheeting is manufactured in specialized production using the following equipment:

  • decoiler, which is the main support of the steel coil;
    rolling machine, which is designed to perform a dominant function in production;
  • steel scissors, the design of which is based on the guillotine principle;
    a device adapted to receive finished material;
  • oil station, which provides C8 corrugated sheets with mobility and ease of use;
  • remote control equipped with a remote operation system.

It is important to note that the manufacturing process of this building material has been completely automated. The human factor is necessary only to monitor the production process and, if necessary, troubleshoot problems in the system.

Explanation of the name of corrugated sheet S-8

For those who are building their own home for the first time and are new to the notation system, this information will be relevant. Suppose you choose corrugated sheeting and see the following designations on it: C8 - 1150 - 0.5. This will mean the following:

  • C - wall, which means that walls are the main place for using building material;
  • 8 - height of the corrugated sheet profile (it can also be 10, 12, 14 mm);
  • 1150 - profile width taking into account the margin (in this case the most used parameters are given);
  • 0.5 is the thickness of the source material, in this case rolled metal.

Technical characteristics of corrugated sheet S-8

The technical characteristics of S-8 corrugated sheeting according to GOST do not have high strength indicators in the event of dense pressure on it. However, in this case, this is more of a plus than a minus, since being quite light and moderately durable, it is easy to install. As an example, we can cite just one square meter of corrugated sheet C8 - 1155 - 0.5, which weighs more than five kilograms.

As for the width of this building material, it is nothing more than the difference between the total width of the corrugated sheet and the width of the overlap between adjacent sheets of material.

multiply the mass of material by the area of ​​the sheet and by the estimated number of steel sheets.

Application of corrugated sheets in construction

Due to the fact that corrugated sheeting is not able to withstand heavy loads, the following main areas for its application can be distinguished:

  • finishing of the facing part of the building;
  • as one of the components for SIP panels;
  • use as an additional temporary building during the main construction (warehouse, shower, toilet);
  • a fence for areas characterized by strong winds and frequent precipitation.

Profiled flooring is a sheet of metal, which is made using galvanized steel. It has a certain shape, depending on the type of material and the corresponding calculations. To protect against destruction, the sheets are coated with a special colored or galvanized polymer substance. Thanks to this, profiled flooring has excellent functional as well as aesthetic qualities.

The material is absolutely safe and environmentally friendly, therefore it is suitable for both external and internal finishing work in premises of various fields of activity. In addition, corrugated sheeting is ideal for constructing fences and making gates.

Advantage of profiled sheet

Today, many manufacturers provide the market with a large variety of products. Thanks to this, everyone has the opportunity to choose the most optimal one, taking into account external aesthetics, price, and performance properties.

Corrugated sheeting has excellent characteristics and is practically not inferior to materials such as or.

The main advantages of profiled sheets include:

  • Durability– good strength, appropriate rigidity and resistance to negative impacts from various external factors. Due to these properties, the material can be used for a long time and can be used for various purposes in the construction industry.

The polymer sheet is more wear-resistant compared to galvanized sheets - the coating not only serves as an excellent decorative factor, but also provides additional protection. The sheets resist fairly strong ultraviolet radiation, sudden changes in temperature conditions, and snow pressure.

  • Practicality. There are a number of features: convenient parameters of corrugated sheets, the use of exclusively high-quality steel for the manufacture of materials, regular painting is not required;
  • Profiled sheets differ from other materials at an affordable price. Their cost depends on the type and;
  • Aesthetic appearance allows the material to compete with more expensive building materials. In addition, the market offers a large variety that can be selected according to individual wishes.

Application area

Profiled sheets are very often used not only as roofing material, but also in other areas: the construction of walls with partitions, fences and suspended ceilings. The most widely used is an equal-flange thin sheet of profile, which has good relief.

C8 grade corrugated sheeting is ideal for building walls, as well as a variety of fences, partitions and other structures. In addition, various structures with buildings, and arched parts of buildings for one purpose or another are built from it.

This material is considered one of the most economical options. Thus, it is often chosen as a material for cladding and wall treatments. In addition, C8 is an excellent roof for country houses or attics, huge cottages, thanks to the fairly large angle of inclination of the roof slopes.

Technical and operational characteristics

Sheets are produced directly for the specified project. In this regard, when placing an order, you can make changes to the technical specifications. As a result, sheets are transformed from universal into ones more suitable for the individual conditions of a particular object.

For production, preference is given to high-quality steel with good technical characteristics. The thickness is 0.5-0.7 mm. The sheets are produced on high-power equipment.

High strength and aesthetic appearance are achieved thanks to the optimal combination of the width of the corrugation and the distance between the two corrugations, which are, respectively, 51.5 mm and 52.5 mm.

Standard parameters of C8 corrugated sheeting:

  • Height – 8 mm;
  • Full width – 1,198 m;
  • Working width – 1.15 m;
  • Thickness – 0.37 – 0.7 mm;
  • Length – about 12 m;

Type of coating – matte and gloss

The profiled sheet C8 is a wall sheet, the height of its corrugation is 8 mm. Profiled sheets of grade C8 must be produced in accordance with the requirements of the state standard GOST 14918 for galvanized materials and GOST 30246 for sheets coated with paints and varnishes.

Corrugated sheeting can be treated with polymer coatings, which include:

  • Acrylic - it is considered the most unstable, so it is quite easy to damage during installation work;
  • The most popular is polyester. It represents a good combination of price and quality;
  • Plastisol consists of polyvinyl chloride modified with plasticizers;
  • The newest type of polymer coating is highly resistant to chemicals and sudden temperature changes;
  • Polydifluorionad consists of acrylic and polyvinyl fluoride.

Installation technology

The requirements of SNIP indicate that grade C8 can be carried out on structures and buildings that are not exposed to strong wind or snow. It must be a solid type. A special antiseptic lathing should be placed under the base.

Particular attention should be paid to those intended for profiled sheets: to provide the main coating, as well as a thermal insulation layer and an insulating membrane.

Cost of corrugated sheet C8

This brand of corrugated sheeting has a low cost. As a rule, its price is determined by the type of materials and the parameters of the manufactured profile. Usually one square meter of sheet costs about two hundred rubles.

Corrugated sheeting is a high-quality material used in various fields. It has many advantages and perfectly combines price and quality.
