Download or read book The Preservation and Repair of Historic Clay Tile Roofs Classic Reprint written by Anne E. Grimmer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Preservation and Repair of Historic Clay Tile Roofs Even if the tiles were originally attached with wooden pegs, it is generally recommended that they be rehung with corrosion-resistant, preferably heavy copper, or aluminum alloy nails or hooks. Today there are numerous non-traditional fastening systems for clay tile roofs, and many of them are patented. Roofing contractors and architects may have individual preferences, and some systems may be better suited than others min a particular roof shape or to meet a specific climatic or seismic requirement. Original battens or other roof members that may have deteriorated should be replaced to match the original using pressure-treated wood. Additional support may be necessary, particularly if the original roof was inadequate or poorly designed.
