If you're looking for a versatile sheathing/sarking solution that can be used for both pitched roof and wall construction, search no further than this Steico Universal Woodfibre Board. It is specifically designed to sheath timber frame wall panels with stud framing no less than 38mm in width and up to 600mm centres.
What's more, this Steico Universal board boasts high compressive strength, superb insulation quantities and high heat protection and can prevent thermal bridging, making it an ideal choice for warm roofs. It can also resist weather exposure without deteriorating during construction, even if cladding is delayed.
Not only does this Steico Universal board provide effective protection against sound, moisture, dust and wind, but it's also ecologically and environmentally friendly. Crafted from FSC chain of custody certified, natural wood fibres, it is both recyclable and sustainable. It is also made from aluminium sulphate and paraffin with a bond between layers.
Question:
1. Is this OK to use as a subroof under onduline on a 5 to 10 degree roof? 2. If yes, how long would it be considered weather resistant before the onduline is fitted? 3. Should a membrane be added between this product and the onduline? 4. If yes to point 3 above, what membrane should be used and how should that be fixed to the sarking?
Answer:
It would be more applicable to fit a standard roofing membrane like Tyvek Supro between this and the Onduline as this product should only be left up to 4 weeks exposed to the elements. You can fix this to the sarking using nails or staples in a traditional method.
Question:
Can you external render on this board. Thank you
Answer:
Yes, you can render over this type of sarking/sheating board.
