SIDE FLASHING MEMBER METHOD OF MAKING SUCH A SIDE FLASHING MEMBER AND A FLASHING ASSEMBLY

摘要

The invention relates to a side flashing member (100) for use with a roof penetrating structure installed in an inclined roof at surface, said flashing member having a substantially U-shaped cross section. The side flashing member comprises a receiving section (110) and a draining section (130), the draining section being inclined at substantially the same angle of slope as the roof and , in the mounted state, being positioned below said receiving section seen in the direction of slope and higher than at least a part of the receiving section seen perpendicular to the roof surface. The invention further relates to a flashing assembly comprising such a side flashing member and to a method of making such a side flashing member, preferably from a single piece of material, where angles between sections are formed by folding the material twice giving it the shape of a Z and subsequently securing at least one part (141, 142, 153) of the Z-shaped fold while pulling on at least one other part (143, 151, 152) to at least partly unfold the Z.
