Detailed Technical Data Sheet - Used Corrugated Sheets 760x6000 mm, Thickness 0.8 mm

General Description

Corrugated sheets are profiled metal sheets with a series of folds or "frets" which give them high mechanical resistance while maintaining a reduced thickness. These sheets are widely used in construction, for roofing and wall cladding, but also find application in the industrial and agricultural fields.

Purchasing used corrugated sheets can represent an economic opportunity, especially for projects that require robust but not necessarily new materials.

Components and Materials

• Base Material: Galvanized steel or stainless steel (depending on type), coated to resist corrosion. The corrugated sheets can also be made of aluminium.
• Structure: The sheet metal has a series of longitudinal folds which increase its rigidity without significantly increasing the weight. This makes it ideal for roofs that must withstand variable loads, such as snow or wind.
• Coating: Typically coated with a layer of zinc to protect the steel from corrosion. In some cases, they may have additional PVC coatings or special paints to improve aesthetics and durability.

Dimensions

• Width: 760 mm (actual width which may vary depending on the specific profile).
• Length: 6000 mm (6 metres).
• Thickness: 0.8 mm, thin enough to maintain lightness, but robust thanks to the corrugation.

Mechanical Characteristics

• Bending Resistance: The folds in the sheet metal increase bending resistance, allowing large spans to be covered without intermediate supports.
• Reduced Weight: Despite its strength, the weight of the sheet metal is reduced, facilitating installation and reducing structural loads.
• Corrosion Resistance: Thanks to the zinc coating and/or other protective materials, the corrugated sheets offer good resistance to atmospheric agents.

Formulas for Optimal Use

• Maximum Sustainable Load (W): Depends on the profile of the corrugation and the thickness of the sheet metal. An estimate can be calculated with the formula W=σy×IL2W = \frac{\sigma_y \times I}{L^2} $W$ $=$ L 2 σ y ​× I ​, σy\sigma_y $\sigma$ y ​is II $I$ is the moment of inertia of the cross section of the sheet metal and LL $L$ is the gap between the supports.
• Moment of Inertia (I): Calculated based on the geometry of the corrugated profile, crucial for determining the stiffness of the sheet metal.

Workable Materials

Corrugated sheets, depending on the material they are made of, can be used in combination with various other construction materials such as:

• Wood : For light roofing and cladding.
• Concrete : For collaborative floors, where the sheet metal serves as a permanent formwork.
• Other Metals : For composite roofing systems.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Clean the surface regularly to remove dirt and debris, avoiding stagnant water which can accelerate corrosion.
• Visual Inspection: Check periodically for signs of rust or structural damage.
• Coating Touch Ups: If necessary, reapply protective coating to damaged areas.

How to Evaluate a Good Used Car

• Absence of Corrosion: Check that there are no signs of rust or penetrating corrosion.
• Structural Integrity: Check that the ribs are not deformed or compromised, which would reduce the load capacity of the sheet metal.
• Intact coating: The protective coating must be present and intact, with no obvious signs of wear.

Sectors of Use

• Construction: Used for covering roofs, walls and facades.
• Agriculture: Used for agricultural constructions, such as sheds and sheds.
• Industry: For the creation of collaborative floors and industrial roofs.

Why It's Better to Buy Them Used

• Lower Cost: Used corrugated sheets are generally cheaper than new ones, making them ideal for projects with smaller budgets.
• Sustainability: Reusing materials reduces the environmental impact compared to purchasing new products.
• Immediate Availability: Used sheets are often ready for use and available in large quantities, reducing procurement times.

Conclusion

Used corrugated sheets represent an excellent opportunity for those looking for a resistant, economical and immediately available material for construction or renovation work. However, it is essential to carefully check the state of conservation to ensure that they maintain their mechanical properties
