Assignment of additional measures for the Ergoldsbacher Karat®*

According to the Central Association of German Roofers’ pamphlet on sub-roofs, sub-coverings and under-bracings, and the basic regulations of the Roofers’ Guild, regular roof pitch 16°, minimum roof pitch 7°, generally recognised in professional circles as state of the art, scientifically proven and tried and tested in practice for decades, according to the state of technology.
Country-specific building standards and/or regulations must be adhered to, if no other contractual agreements have been made.

Increased demands due to:
- long spar lengths (longer than 10 metres)
- concentrated water channel on parts of the roof surface, e.g. under drainpipes, where valleys form junctions and the like
- special roofs like cambered dormer windows or arched and conical roofs
- snowy regions ≥ 1,5 kN/m2 of ground snow load - windy regions in wind load zone 4 or in ridge or hill-top positions or where gullies form

Classification
Class 1: waterproof sub-roof consisting of waterproofing membranes or stitched underlay made of diffusion-open UDB-eA (for extended applications; with integrated counter battens in each case)
Class 2: rainproof sub-roof consisting of waterproofing membranes or stitched underlay made of UDB-eA (for extended applications; with exposed counter battens on nail-sealing tape / compound in each case)
Class 3: glued sub-covering/under-bracing with nail-sealing tape / compound - with ETB/ETA verified nail seals or wooden roof sheathing
Class 4: glued sub-covering/under-bracing
Class 5: sub-covering or under-bracing

* The additional measures listed in the table are minimum measures under consideration of Table 1 in the pamphlet on sub-roofs, sub-coverings and under-bracings. Sub-covering panels are to be assigned according to the classification in the pamphlet on sub-roofs, sub-coverings and under-bracings. Increased demands make up categories according to chapter 1.1.3. Further increased demands can arise out of the weighting within a category according to 1.1.3. For example, climate situations can result in several increased demands. Only permitted if the manufacturer provides proof of the functionality and safety of the products used, including accessories (sealing tapes, sticky tapes, sealing compounds, pre-assembled seam securing, etc.), as part of a deluge test and 24-hour rain test on a roof pitch of 15°. Otherwise, the next class up is to be selected. Any limitations noted by the manufacturer are to be taken into account. See the product data information sheet for instructions regarding protection against perforation. These can be used for classes 3 to 6.

We recommend concluding separate contracts for designs that are state of the art or state-of-the-art of science and technology.

2024: ERLUS Karat RS - Anthrazit

Stands for good design: timeless and modern for almost 50 years.

After almost 50 years, it’s safe to say that the Ergoldsbacher Karat® is a design classic, as it is still as up-to-date as ever. It is a perfect complement to modern architecture, and its techology is unique. With a standard roof pitch of 16° (min. roof pitch 7°), it is ideally suited to flatter roofs owing to its sophisticated technical design, which also makes the tile particularly raintight: Triple interlocking head joint, double interlocking side joint and a 4-tile corner with protected male lock.

Quantity required per m²: aprox. 14.5 Pieces

Minimum roof pitch: 7 °

Regular roof pitch: 16 °
