corrugated iron
Wavy metal panels
Corrugated iron is sheet metal formed into parallel ridges and grooves, used for roofing and siding.
The corrugation adds strength and allows water to run off.
Despite the name, it's typically made of steel, often galvanized to resist rust.
The material is cheap and durable, common on sheds, barns, and improvised structures: a corrugated iron roof.
