TIMBER BOARDING OR PLYWOOD PANELS
LCP LYCORTILE® can be laid on timber boarding or
plywood or panels, which are at least 17mm thick.
Typical timber roofing tiling battens* are 25mm × 50mm
in size. These tiling battens* must be laid on counter
battens* of size 25mm×25mm running down the slope
at 600mm centres. For LCP LYCORTILE® with 300mm step
distance per module, the tiling batten* spacing must be
300mm except at the bottom where spacing is reduced
to 280mm.
