Cutting: Panels can be cut using power or hand saws. Saw blades should be fine-toothed carbide tipped or safety fabric reinforced abrasive disc. Face shields and appropriate safety equipment should be worn by all operators.
Drilling:
All panels should be pre-drilled not less than 1-1/2'' from the panel
end, and the holes drilled a minimum of 1/16'' larger than the fastener
diameter. Panels can be drilled singly or several at a time.
Fasteners:
When possible, fasteners should be installed at high points of the
corrugation with spacings of 6'' to 8'' on center at panel ends, and 12'' to
16'' on center for intermediate purlins and siding applications.
| Installation: UNDER NO
CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD PANELS BE ALLOWED TO SUPPORT UNDISTRIBUTED LOADS SUCH AS
THE WEIGHT OF A HUMAN BODY. USE ONLY APPROVED ROOF LADDERS FOR INSTALLATION |
