This simply mean that only one gutter could be made out
s;
from one plain G.l . sheet with an excess cut of 37.5
centimeters. The 37.5 centimeters excess does not
necessarily mean to be considered as waste because there
are several parts in the tinsmith work that requires smaller
cut or dimensions such as flashing , and anchor straps.
PVc plastic materials are now in used as gutter and
downspout instead of the plain G . l . sheets. However , at this
early stage , the use of PVc plastic gutter have

Estimating Procedures:
a.) The number of corrugated asbestos roofing required is
determined by dividing the gutter length by the effective
width covering of one sheet.
c.) Other parts such as ridge end cap, apron flashing, gutter
comer, down spout and fittings are found by direct
counting. They are all ready made according to factory
