The clay tile and T-iron roof — sometimes called a T-iron and terracotta tile ceiling — is a construction method long used across Karachi and interior Sindh. T-iron sections are laid across the room span as the structural support, with clay tiles set between them to form the ceiling and roof surface. The clay layer helps insulate against heat compared to bare metal sheeting.
Indus Corps supplies the T-iron sections and clay tiles required for this system and can coordinate the full material package for renovation projects, servant quarters, boundary rooms and traditional-style construction, with delivery from Karachi.
T-iron beams are placed across the wall span at set intervals based on the room width and expected load, and clay tiles are then laid between and over the T-iron sections to complete the ceiling and roof surface, typically finished with a mud or concrete topping layer.
