Product Details
Preface
This is the second edition of the CSA A220 Series, Concrete roof tiles. It supersedes the previous edition published in 1991.
CSA A220 Series consists of two Standards: CSA A220.0 and CSA A220.1. CSA A220.0, Performance of concrete roof tiles, specifies requirements for concrete roof tiles and tiling accessories, based on the results of performance tests. It outlines procedures and acceptance criteria for sampling and testing for dimensional tolerances, water absorption, water permeability, freezing and thawing resistance, transverse strength, and material quality.
CSA A220.1, Installation of concrete roof tiles, specifies requirements for the installation of concrete roof tiles and tiling accessories on roofs with slopes of 1:3 and greater. It also provides requirements for the installation of sheathing and the installation and testing of underlayment as well as the related requirements for weather-resistant roofing systems.
These Standards were prepared by the Technical Committee on Concrete Roof Tiles, under the jurisdiction of the Strategic Steering Committee on Concrete and Related Products, and were approved by the Technical Committee. They will be submitted to the Standards Council of Canada for approval as National Standards of Canada.
