Advantages

 

Recyclable

 

As mentioned briefly above, aluminium is considered to be a sustainable material. A key feature is that it can be recycled while still retaining its initial properties. This is a huge advantage and is not only cost-effective but also beneficial for the environment.

 

Corrosion Resistant

 

Aluminium develops a thin layer of aluminium oxide on its surface when exposed to air. This layer protects the aluminium from corrosion when exposed.

 

Versatile and Flexible

 

Due to the characteristics of aluminium being durable, strong and light, it is an ideal material for the construction industry.

 

It can be curved, extruded and cut into incredible shapes. It does not matter where this material is cut, as it is resistant to corrosion and trimmed edges do not need to be protected.

 

It is largely used in cladding systems to improve the exteriors of structures both visually and practically and is the go-to material for retrofit applications.

 

Furthermore, the versatility of aluminium means that various functions can be integrated into one profile.

 

Reflective Properties

 

As aluminium reflects sunlight, this allows buildings to stay much cooler during the warmer months, which can help reduce electricity costs once the building is complete.

 

By utilizing this material and large glass windows, you can often save on heating and lighting costs. With so many environmental and financial benefits, aluminium is quickly becoming one of the most preferred materials for structures around the world.

 

Lightweight But Strong

 

Another benefit of using aluminium in structures is its strength and durability. This material can stand up to a significant amount of weight without causing the building to be too heavy.

 

Buildings constructed with aluminium can support heavy glass panes that promote natural sunlight throughout the building, again, adding to its contribution to sustainable building designs.

Disadvantage

 

1. It is much more expensive

 

As compared to zinc or steel it is considered to be a much as high quality material. As a result this sets it at a higher price in the metal roof market. Due to its durability compared to roofing materials such as asphalt shingles or tiles, it is also much more expensive to install. The way it is being setup can be different and hence it also needs well-trained roofers.

 

2. It can be noisy

 

One primary reason with aluminium roofing sheets is that they can be noisy when it rains. In order to reduce the noise an extra sheet of sound-proof material could be installed right underneath the aluminium roofing sheet.

 

3. It can be easily dent

 

The dent would affect the aesthetic appearance of the roof. And it can also reduce the efficiency of the flow of water on the roof.

 

4. It expands more under the heat

 

Aluminium would expand about twice than that of steel. This is because of the metallic characteristics of the aluminium itself. Nothing much can be done to change these properties. Hence there could be a risk of damage to the aluminium roof sheet or even tear around the nail hole that can lead to roof leaks.

 

5. High repairing cost

 

In the case of damage and requires replacement, the entire aluminium roofing sheet needs to be taken out and replaced with a new one. This is a usual disadvantage of metal roofs. So, as compared to those shingle types of roof the aluminum roof repair will cost higher.
