I construct a high-density mild steel grid with close purlin spacing and reinforced support columns to make sure your roof stays rock solid for years, without any sagging or structural stress. ### Engineering Your Roof When you choose Mangalore tiles, the structure beneath matters more than the tiles themselves. Clay tiles add significant load to a roof. My process starts with a structural assessment of your existing space to determine the right gauge of mild steel pipes required for the truss grid. I use 14 to 16 gauge steel, which is heavy-duty and designed to handle the weight of terracotta for decades. ### My Fabrication Process 1. **Site Assessment:** I personally measure your space to plan the pitch and slope. Proper angle is non-negotiable here to ensure rainwater runs off quickly. 2. **Custom Grid:** Every truss is welded on-site. I use heavy-duty arc welding for maximum load distribution. 3. **Rust Prevention:** Metal rusts easily in Bangalore weather. I manually apply red oxide primer to every single joint and pipe, followed by an enamel top coat before the tiles go on. 4. **Tile Alignment:** Once the steel frame is ready, I use specialized labor to lay the tiles. Ridge tiles are sealed to the peaks to prevent any water leakage during monsoon. ### Why Build It This Way A solid steel frame eliminates the need for frequent repairs. Whether you are building a new gazebo in your garden or adding a classic pitched roof to your terrace, my goal is to build it so you do not have to worry about the maintenance. I provide all logistics and material handling, so you do not have to stress about getting heavy tiles or steel pipes to your rooftop. ## About MD Fabrication I have spent 13 years making sure roofs actually hold up, not just look good. If you want a Mangalore tile roof, I build the steel structure first so it can handle the heavy clay weight for decades.
