THE RATIONALE FOR CHOOSING iscomIS THE SUPERIOR ENGINEERINGSUPERIOR ENGINEERING BEHIND
RIVERCLACK IT IS WITHOUT COMPETITION IN CHARACTERISTICS
AND PERFORMANCE
DUE TO ITS UNIQUE anti friction, anti static LOCKING SYSTEM
Why Riverclack ?
RIVERCLACK® was born of a specific requirement: The need to use, for flat or very low sloped roofs, a covering which gives an absolute guarantee of water-tightness, with a duration as long as the building itself, without any need for maintenance.
The Range of Materials
WIDEST CHOICE AMONG ALL OTHER
ALUMINIUM COPPER STAINLESS STEEL
PRE PAINTING
Aluminium (alloy 5754 ), copper, stainless steel and zinc are the long life metals used for Riverclack. In particular, the 5754 aluminium alloy is the
best acid rain proof metal.
Other finishings available:Aluminium stucco embossed,galvanizad steel,”nordic green”trested copper, “nordic brown” treated copper
The SystemTHE RIVERCLACK PROFILE
UNLIMITED PANEL LENGTH
THE LOCKING SYSTEMThe installation is very simple and does not require any perforation of the metal
sheets. Fastenings are made with reinforced polyamidereinforced polyamide brackets.
The brackets anchor to the purlins below with screws – and, the metal sheets snap onto the brackets and within each other with simple foot pressure !

The System
An IN BUILT Self Draining joint
This is the revolutionary RIVERCLACK patented system that really ensures the water-tightness to the roof.
The joint is characterised by a conical piece and a drainage duct which creates a rising section pipeline proportional to the water level increase.
This easily drains out water to the eaves.
NO SEALANT NO GASKETS
SELF CURVING
Other characteristics
RIVERCLACK sheets can self curve down to a 22 m radius, simply by fixing the system while following the curve shape of
the structure below.
MECHANICAL CURVING
Other characteristics
Smaller radii of curvature, down to a minimum of 5 meters can be achieved by using a calendar machine.
This feature is however currently not available in India.
Tested and Certified Performance

Walkability
0.7 mm thickness aluminium sheets allow to walk on in any condition, without any permanent deflection even after many careless tramples.
No rigid support below is needed!
In the RIVERCLACK system, the whole joint works as a supporting beam. Its structural properties mean that it can be subjected to significantly higher stresses than any contemporary profile.
RIVERCLACK 's flat part has cross-ribbing that adds further structural strength and is also pleasing to look at.

CERTIFICATION / LABORATORYThe loading test of 0.7 mm thick aluminium was carried out by inserting a rubber layer between a piston and the metal sheets to simulate the tread of industrial footwear. Both dynamic and static - dynamic tests gave excellent results. The RIVERCLACK system is the only system of its kind that is completely safe and walkable.

WATERTIGHTNESS
DYNAMIC TEST
The test is performed through an 80 meters long wind and rain simulator. Inside it there are 80 M long Riverclack® sheets, 0.7 mm thick, exposed to extreme weather conditions, reproduced through a fan machine able to generate a 150 Km/h air stream. A sprinkler set, located every 20 cm, produces a 150 mm/h rainfall.
Tested and Certified Performance

CERTIFICATION / LABORATORY
WATERTIGHTNESS
The test was carried out on 0.7 mm thick aluminium sheets with a 0.3% slope. After 45 days of immersion, only a small dripping from the draining joints could be seen. The inner side of the roof showed no signs of leak and the bottom was completely dry.
The RIVERCLACK system guarantees complete water-tightness.

WATERTIGHTNESS
Thanks to the draining joint the roof system is completely watertight even if completely flooded. The capacity of the internal duct and external conical joint design act as a combination of two in –built gutters that prevents water from flowing into the system at any time
0.3 %slope is allowed by the
system without any leak even under 300 mm of water

WIND UPLIFT RESISTENCE
CERTIFICATION / LABORATORYThe test for uplift resistance to even extraordinarily strong winds was carried out on sheets of 0.7 mm thick aluminium. The pressure on the inner surface of the roof was obtained with the use of a plastic membrane.The roof and the plastic sheets were sealed to a wall of the test chamber and subjected to an (airbag effect) air pressure up to the required loading.
THE RESULTS SHOWED THE SYSTEM'S EXTRAORDINARY PERFORMANCE UP TO THE UNLOCKING POINT AT OVER 7 KN /M2.

Low costs and Extreme Reliability
Other characteristics
Long life, no maintenance and the error-free fastness of installation are the properties that make RIVERCLACK™
the most cost effective choice both for big or small works
MOST COST EFFECTIVE
Low costs and Extreme Reliability
Other characteristicsRELIABILITY
The most frequently occurring causes of failures in reliability for almost all metal roofing are:
- FASTENING HOLES GOING OUT-OF-ROUND DUE TO THERMAL EXPANSION - PULLED OUT OR BUCKLED SCREW- SURFACE TEARING
Common Risk Factors are:
1. HEAVY RAIN
2. RAIN AND WIND IN COMBINATION
3. RAIN AND HAIL
4. MELTING SNOW (in high altitudes for India)
5. INSUFFICIENT SLOPE
COMPARISON with contemporary productsCOMPARISON with contemporary productsMATERIAL ( ALUMINIUM ALLOY) / WALKABILITYMATERIAL ( ALUMINIUM ALLOY) / WALKABILITY
KALZIPKALZIPGenerally uses low strength
aluminum alloy (AA 3004). It means no walkability on the
roof (also needs a rigid support underneath of 1.0mm thickness).
Besides this, the 3004 alloy has the problem of corrosion in even moderately aggressive environment.
RIVERCLACK RIVERCLACK Generally uses higher strength
structural grade aluminum alloy (5754)
Permits walking in any condition during and after installation, without leaving any permanent deflection
No rigid support is required below the sheet.
Better resistance to atmospheric agents and acidic rains.
