Color steel tiles are widely used in industrial plants, warehouses, residential buildings and other construction fields due to their advantages of light weight, high strength and convenient construction. However, if some common mistakes are not avoided in time during the installation of color steel tiles, it will not only affect the aesthetics of the building, but also may cause problems such as water leakage and structural instability, shortening the service life of the color steel tiles. Therefore, understanding and avoiding these common mistakes is crucial to ensure the quality of color steel tile installation.
In the early preparation stage of installation, errors are prone to occur in the measurement and material selection process. In order to save time, some construction workers did not accurately measure the installation area, resulting in the size of the purchased color steel tiles not meeting the actual needs. On-site cutting had to be performed during installation, which not only increased the construction cost, but also damaged the surface coating of the color steel tiles, reducing their anti-corrosion performance. In addition, lax control of the quality of color steel tiles is also a common problem. In order to reduce costs, some construction units use cheap but substandard color steel tiles. The substrate thickness of these color steel tiles is insufficient and the coating adhesion is poor. They are prone to deformation and rust during use. To avoid such problems, professional measuring tools should be used before installation to accurately measure the installation area multiple times to ensure that the data is accurate. When purchasing color steel tiles, suppliers should be strictly screened, product quality inspection reports should be checked, and products that meet national standards and are of reliable quality should be selected.
Operational errors during the installation process cannot be ignored. First of all, improper installation of the keel is a major hidden danger. As the skeleton supporting the color steel tile, if the keel is too far apart and not firmly installed, the color steel tile will be unevenly stressed, and it is easy to deform or even overturn in severe weather such as strong winds and heavy rains. For example, in a typhoon, there was a case where the entire color steel tile roof was lifted up due to unreasonable keel spacing. The correct approach is to reasonably determine the keel spacing according to the specifications and load-bearing requirements of the color steel tile, and use high-strength bolts or welding to firmly fix the keel to the building structure. Secondly, improper laying of color steel tiles can also cause many problems. When laying, the lap length of adjacent color steel tiles is insufficient, or the lap direction is wrong, which will cause rainwater to penetrate into the room along the gap; the inaccurate nail fixing position and the incomplete sealing of the nail cap will also cause water leakage. Therefore, when laying color steel tiles, you should strictly follow the construction specifications to ensure that the overlap length meets the requirements and the overlap direction is consistent with the local dominant wind direction. When fixing nails, you must drill holes accurately to ensure that the nail caps fit tightly against the color steel tiles, and use sealant for secondary sealing.
Inspection and maintenance after installation are equally critical. Many construction teams fail to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the color steel tile roof after installation, missing some subtle gaps or loosely fixed parts. Over time, these problems are gradually exposed, causing leaks and other faults. In addition, lack of awareness of regular maintenance is also a common problem. Color steel tiles are exposed to the outdoors for a long time, and are eroded by ultraviolet rays, acid rain, etc. The surface coating will gradually age. If maintenance is not carried out in time, the damage of the color steel tiles will be accelerated. Therefore, after the installation is completed, the entire roof should be carefully inspected, and a water spray test should be used to detect whether there are any leaks; in daily use, the color steel tile roof should be cleaned and anti-corrosive treated regularly, and problems should be repaired in time.
