Abstract
Deals with the upper surfaces of pitched tiled or slated roofing. Concentrates on those aspects of tiling and slating which could lead to deficiencies in the performance of the completed roof. Aims to provide practitioners with a summary of the main good practice criteria. Covers general principles applicable to all forms of tiling and slating, together with criteria where requirements for ancillary materials and practices are common to both tiles and slates, such as weather resistance and underlay specifications and some aspects of work on site.
