FLAT OR TERRACED ROOFS
- HAVING A SLOPE OF 1DEGREE TO 5
DEGREE.
- SIMILAR TO UPPER FLOORS OF BUILDINGS
AND CAN BE CONSTRUCTED OF R.C.C.,
REINFORCED BRICKWORK PRECAST
CONCRETE OR FLAG STONES SUPPORTED
ON ROLLED STEEL JOISTS.
- REQUIREMENT FOR EFFICIENT WATER
PROOFING AND DRAINAGE.
- MILD SLOPE REQUIRED TO ALLOW
RAINWATER TO FLOW INTO THE SUR-
ROUNDING GUTTER OR OUTLET.
- MINIMUM SLOPE REQUIRED FOR
DRAINING WATER IS 1:50.
- IN ADDITION, A LAYER OF WATER
PROOFING MATERIAL IS LAID TO PREVENT
SEEPAGE OF WATER.
- ALSO, MUD, LIME, MUD PHUSKA, MOSAIC
TILES, ETC.

REQUIREMENTS OF FLAT ROOF:
WATER PROOFING

• THE PROCESS OF MAKING AN OBJECT

WATERPROOFOR WATER-RESISTANT, THUS
AFFECTING THE PERMEABILITY OF WATER
INTO THE SURFACE.
• THE CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM OF
WATERPROOFING INVOLVES
'MEMBRANES‘, INVOLVING THE
APPLICATION OF ONE OR MORE LAYERS
OF MEMBRANE (AVAILABLE IN VARIOUS
MATERIALS: E.G., BITUMEN, SILICATE,
PVC, EPDM ETC.)
• THESE MATERIALS ACT AS A BARRIER
BETWEEN THE WATER AND THE BUILDING
STRUCTURE, PREVENTING THE PASSAGE
OF WATER.
