Roof ApplicationPanel installation should begin at the gable end of the roof opposite the prevailing rain-bearing

wind (this will provide added assurance against wind-driven rain being forced under the laps). Measureone panel width in from the roof edge. At this point chalk a line from ridge to eave. Place the leadingedge of the first panel along this line. It is extremely important that this panel be laid square to the eaveand ridge so that the remaining panels will line up square on the roof frame. It is wise to have a personat the eave and at the ridge to ensure that the proper panel coverage is being maintained across the roof.Also be sure that the panels are properly side-lapped (see on

upper

across thepanel

An overhang of 2 to 3 inches on the eave is recommended to provide a drip edge, while only 1inch overhang is necessary where gutters are used. The open panel ribs at the eave can be sealed withinside closures. For maximum weather-tightness, a row of butyl tape can be applied above and beneathclosure material.

fig. 7

In applications where end-lapping is necessary, the panel on the slope should lap over thepanel that is lower on the slope by about 12 inches. Lesser roof pitches require a greater amount ofpanel overlap. All end-lap applications should use two horizontal rows of butyl sealant tape

and proper fastening to provide a maximum water seal.

page 7).

Trimming and Cutting Steel PanelsThe best device for cutting steel panels is either hand snips or a nibbler.

Nibblers, and especially Carborundum blades on electric saws, however, do have a tendency to eitherleave hot metal particles that can burn paint surfaces or to leave rust marks on panels and trim. Thesame is true of any filings left on the roof caused by the application of screws. Care should be taken tobrush all such particles from roof surfaces after application.

To Note carefully where the panel is to be cut, and, using a straightedge,score deeply down the length of the panel with a sharp-pointed utility knife. Folding the panel along thescore mark, and bending back again if necessary, should produce a clean break in the panel.

Installation of Panels

CAUTION! clean all metal shavings and particles off of roof to avoid unsightly rust stains

Roof PitchGulf Coast roofing panels require a certain degree of pitch to ensure proper water drainage.

to prevent water from siphoning over the ribs (see on p. 4).Lap screws and sealant are optional when the pitch is 4/12 or greater (4/12 pitch means that there is 4inches of rise for every 12 inches running horizontally). As a general principle, the less steep the roof,and the more necessary also that sealant be used at all side-laps. Consult our representative forrecommendations for your particular roof pitch, and about roofing options if you have less than a 2/12pitch.

Florida Building Code allows a minimum pitch of 2/12 for panels as long as lap screwsand sealant are applied to the laps

Roof PreparationOil-canning is a wave-like, rippled appearance extending up the length of the panel after it has

been installed on the roof. Any irregularities in the roof, including uneven plywood joints, warpedplywood, uneven trusses, poor application of underlayment, the use of button caps with felt paper, etc.,can promote oil-canning.

Ordering and Applying Trim

The most common flashing for metal roofing is the , which is used at the peak of aroof where two opposing roof slopes join. Other flashings includeand , and (see diagram on right for application). Eave trims include

and either of which are often applied above trim. When roof pitchexceeds 5/12 (a 5 inch rise in 12 inches), the slope of the roof should be mentioned when orderingridge caps, endwalls, and eave drip. When a steeper roof slope meets a lesser slope, both slopesshould be mentioned when ordering transition flashing.

At the gable edge the use of gable trim adds to the appearance of the structure and protectsthe fly-rafter, and sidewall flashing is used where the of a panel butts up against an adjacentwall. In either case, the installer should be careful to seal between the gable rake or sidewall andpanel with butyl sealant tape, and to fasten the rake every 6" to 12" up the slope of the roof withthe appropriate screws. If eave drip is used on the gable, the number of 90 degree eave dripshould be specified separately from that used on the drip edge when ordering.

To prevent penetration of water, insects, and debris at the ridge, outside closures should beinserted between the ridge cap and the top end of the panel. Screws are applied through the ridgecap, closure, and rib in at least every other rib of the panels. At least a 1½" (or preferably 2½")screw should be used for attaching ridge caps. Self-drilling lap screws can also be used to attachridge caps.

Ordering Roof Panels and Screws

Care should be taken to order panels of the correct length to avoid having to makecorrective measures after purchase. Panel lengths should fall 2 to 3 inches short of the ridge

, and should extend 2 to 3 inches past the eave to allow a sufficient dripedge (except as noted on pg. 3 concerning gutters). When a roof transition is involved, panels ofthe upper portion should be ordered short to allow placement of the transition flashing (seediagram on p. 10). The Gulf Coast sales personnel are ready to assist customers with informationspecific to their particular roof.

Specially-washered screws applied through the flat of the metal is the most recommendedmethod used to attach roofing panels. 1-inch screws can be used if penetration of only ¾ inch iseither necessary or desired; otherwise, 1½ inch screws are usually recommended. 2½ inch screwsare also available, and are often used by those who adhere to through-the-rib fastening, and forridge-cap application. See pages 6 and 7 for more information on screw spacing and ordering.

whena vented ridge is desired

Keep Materials Dry!

Paint and finishes of Gulf Coast panels and trim are designed to withstand severe rain andwet weather conditions. Neither paint, galvanized, or Galvalume finishes, however, are designed tobe in continuous contact with water for long periods of time.

Be sure to store material that will not beinstalled immediately in a dry location. Wet material should be air-dried and re-stacked ifinstallation is not planned right away.

Damage will result if uninstalledpanels or trim are allowed to remain wet in storage.

The Ridge Cap is used to seal the point atwhich two upward slopes meet. This canbe both along the ridge of the roof as wellas a covering for a hip. Either woodgripor self-drilling lap TEK screws areapplied through the ribs of the metal.

Since debris, insects, and blowingrain can find easy access under the ridgecap, closures are required to eithercompletely or partially seal the opening.Closures under ridge caps come in 3types: solid, vented, and hip tape.

Solid closures (“Outside Closures”) arethe same width as the panels. They lock together in a row placed directlyunder the screws that attach the ridge cap, and form a solid, water-tight,air-tight barrier.

Hip closure tape ( ) is a sticky, adhesive-backed metallic tapethat seals the hip roof. It is 6 inches wide and comes in 33½ foot rolls.Because it must be conformed to the rise and fall of the panel ridges,approximately 10% extra may be needed beyond the length of the hipbeing covered.

Profile Vent comes in 50 foot rolls, is 3 inches wide, and forms a water-retardant, insect resistant barrier that allows hot air to escape from theattic, and is superior to many more elaborate and expensive vent systems.Any length may be ordered.
