Dry bonnet system for hipped roofs
A dry, i.e. mortar-free, system and method is disclosed for tiling a bonnet hip on a tiled roof. The mortarless system includes a spacer provided in each space between pairs of respective upper and lower bonnet tiles of a sloping hip. The spacer comprises clips which engage an underlying hip tile and a wedge portion for projecting from the top of the underlying tile to space an overlying tile from it. The spacer sits against the upper surface of the bonnet tile and the clips are formed at lateral edges of the spacer and clip around edges of the tile. Additionally, a rubber or polyurethane insert may be inserted in front of the spacer to seal between the adjacent tiles, this may be a separate component or may be integral to the spacer. A hip made according to the system and method looks very similar to a traditionally made hip, but is easier to install and essentially maintenance-free.
