Dry Fix SystemsThe Marley Dry Hip System provides a mechanically fixed, weathertight and attractive finish to the hip line without the use of mortar bedding. The hip tiles are secured to a PVC-u Hip Batten Section fixed to the hip tree or rafter, and utilises PVC- u Hip Unions to maintain compatibility with the Marley Dry Ridge System.

Authority

The Concrete Third Round and Modern Hip tiles are manufactured to comply with the requirements of BS EN 490 Concrete roofing tiles and fittings with BSI Kitemark Licence. The Marley Dry Hip System complies with the requirements of BS 5534 : for the mechanical fixing of Hip tiles.

Composition

The components of the System are manufactured from high durability PVC-u with closed cell rubber foam weathering strips. The Apex Capping unit is moulded from Styrosun ® PVC. Fixing materials are made from high tensile stainless steel and durable aluminium.

Performance

The Marley Dry Hip System may be used on all roof pitches up to a maximum of 45° provided the roof slopes intersect at 90° on plan. The System will also accommodate roof slopes of varying pitch either side of the hip, up to a 10° difference.

Compatibility

The Marley Dry Hip System is fully compatible with the Marley Ventilated Dry Ridge and Marley Eaves Ventilation Systems and can be used with all products in the Marley Plain, Interlocking and Slate Ranges.

Description

  • Extruded black PVC-u Hip Sections, 3m long (low or high profile to suit tile profile) are fixed to the timber hip tree or rafter using purpose-made PVC-u blocks and drive screws.
  • A closed cell rubber foam strip, 3m long (low or high profile to suit tile profile) is located along each side of the Hip Section to provide weathering for the cut tiles.
  • Raking cut tiles are mechanically secured to prevent slippage by using purpose-made head clips and tingle clips.
  • A Block End Hip tile is fitted at the base of the hip and mechanically fixed.
  • Each Hip tile is secured to the top of the PVC-u Hip Section with injection moulded PVC-u Hip Unions with neoprene rubber seals.
  • The hip/ridge intersection is weathered with a Styrosun ® PVC Apex Cap and is available in three sizes for roof pitches from 15° - 45°

Note: Hips with a plan angle 90° - 135°
Where hips have plan angles 90° - 135° on plan, it may be necessary to trim the downstand of the Block End Hip tile at the base of the hip to align with the eaves course of tiles. This should be done using a disc cutter, ensuring that all Health and Safety precautions are carried out.

At the apex of the hip, a purpose made Code 4/5 lead capping should be fabricated to fit over the three-way junction with the ridge (see Lead Sheet Association Lead Sheet Flashings Manual for guidance).

The edges of the lead cap should be secured using the appropriate Ridge/Hip union, ensuring that a slot is formed at each side of the cap to align with the location lugs of the Unions.
