MULTIRIB
Multirib™ is a medium height, long run roofing and cladding profile designed primarily for industrial and commercial applications. Multirib™ is also suited for roofing applications on low pitch residential projects.Multirib™ provides numerous benefits to the architect, including clean lines and innovative design features offering superior strength and spanning capability over similar profiles. Installed as roofing and cladding on many of New Zealand’s larger scale projects, Multirib™ exhibits equally impressive aesthetics when used in a traditional profile shape, or alternatively, as “reverse run” as an option for wall cladding ensuring the building designer only has to concern themselves with one roof and cladding profile.
Applications
For industrial and commercial roofing
and cladding projects where both high
spanning and a low pitch is requiredResidential roofing
Industrial and commercial horizontal and
vertical cladding in both standard and
reverse run applicationsRural and lifestyle roofing and cladding

Roof Pitch
The minimum pitch for Multirib™ is 3° (1 in 20).Materials

Features
Convex ribs provide strength and water run-off away from the fixings
Twin capillary breaks on the lap
Purpose designed leg provides support to the underlap
Steeply angled ribs provide superior strength and aesthetics
Installers feet fit neatly in the pan thereby avoiding damage to the ribs
Can be “reverse run” and the swage removed for use as a wall cladding
Lap can be altered in the reverse run process to ensure improved aesthetics and water tightness
Excellent water carrying capacity
Equally impressive for both roofing and cladding applications
Superior spanning at low roof pitch
