Applications

The visual appeal, strength, wide cover, light weight and weather resistance of Stramit Monoclad®cladding make it perfect for all commercial roofing and walling applications. Its excellent strength and ease of assembly allow for long, economical spans. The large water-carrying capacity and weather-tightness permit very low roof pitches, leading to economies in the building structure.

Stramit Monoclad® cladding may also be used for domestic applications. 

Stramit Monoclad® cladding is only intended for use incommercial/industrial/residential roof or wall cladding applications. Do not use for any other purpose.

Materials

Stramit Monoclad® cladding is manufactured from hi-tensile G550 colour coated steel or zinc aluminium alloy coated steel. In some locations galvanised and severe environment colour coated steel may be available by arrangement. Colour coated steels are in accordance with AS2728 – Category 3 and, for the substrate, with AS1397. Zinc aluminium alloy coated AZ150 and galvanised Z450 conform to AS1397. 

Stramit has a comprehensive range of colours as standard. Ask your nearest Stramit location for colour availability.

Adverse Conditions 

Stramit Monoclad® cladding will give excellent durability in almost all locations. It is however important to choose the correct coating for each application environment. 
Please refer to page 2 of the Stramit Monoclad® Roof and Wall Cladding Product Technical Manual forthe Tables on suitability of coating type and site exposure condition.

Compatibility

All building products need to be checked for compatibility with adjacent materials. These checks need to be for both direct contact between materials, and where water runs from one material to another. The following guidelines generally avoid material incompatibility:

  • For zinc-aluminium alloy coated steel, colour coated steel and galvanised steel roofs avoid copper, lead, green or treated timber, stainless steel and mortar or concrete.

  • In addition galvanised steel roofs should not receive drainage from aluminium or any inert materials, such as plastics, glass, glazed tiles, colour coated and zinc-aluminium alloy. Contact Stramit for more detailed information.

Testing

Stramit has in-house, purpose built, testing equipment used to design, develop and improve products for the Australian market. In addition many Stramit products are tested or witnessed by independent organisations. These include:

  • Cyclone Structural Testing Station
    (James Cook University)

  • The University of Sydney

  • University of Technology, Sydney

This ongoing research and development activity ensures that Stramit remains at the forefront of innovation, design and consumer information.
