Abstract

Introduction Lead sheet has made a comeback during the last few years. Over 90,000 tonnes of lead sheet was used for roofing, cladding and flashing applications during 1987 — the highest quantity ever known to be used in a year in the UK. Flashings and weatherings account for over 75 per cent of the tonnage, the balance being used for re‐roofing old or historic buildings and roofing and cladding for new buildings.
