ALTERNATIVE TOP BATTEN SETTING OUT
Envirotiles can be cut with a hand saw very easily so an alternative option for the batten setting out is to set out the battens up the
roof face by the recommended gauge (see page 16) then fit the top batten course so that the gauge is different. For the top row of
tiles the installer can then cut off the TOP EDGE of the tile so that it clips into the lower tile and lines up with the top batten edge.
ABUTMENT WALL BATTEN DETAILS
At abutment walls fit battens so that there is an 80mm
minimum clearance between the batten and the wall face.
