Metal Roof Installation User Manual

Classic Rib® Install Guide  
The application and detail drawings in this manual are strictly for illustration purposes and may not be appli-  
cable to all building designs or product installations. All projects should conform to applicable building codes  
for that particular area. It is recommended to follow all building regulations and standard industry practices.  
Metal Sales Manufacturing Corporation is not responsible for the performance of the roof system if it is not  
installed in accordance with the suggested instructions referenced in this installation manual or in the product  
overview. (See Product Manual or Product Technical Literature). If there is a conflict between this manual and  
the actual erection drawings, the erection drawings are to take precedence.  
Prior to ordering and installing materials, all dimensions should be verified by field measurements.  
Metal Sales reserves the right to modify, without notice, any details, recommendations or suggestions. Any  
questions you may have regarding proper installation of the roofing system should be directed to your Metal  
Sales representative, see pages 2 and 3.  
Consult Metal Sales for any additional information not outlined in this manual.  
This manual is designed to be utilized as a guide when installing Post Frame and Residential roofing systems.  
It is the responsibility of the erector to ensure the safe installation of this product system.  
SAFETY  
STUDY APPLICABLE OSHA AND OTHER SAFETY REQUIREMENTS BEFORE  
FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS.  
The installation of metal roof systems is a dangerous procedure and should be supervised by trained knowl-  
edgeable erectors. USE EXTREME CARE WHILE INSTALLING ROOF PANELS. It is not possible for Metal  
Sales to be aware of all the possible job site situations that could cause an unsafe condition to exist. The erec-  
tor of the roof system is responsible for reading these instructions and determining the safest way to install the  
roof system.  
These instructions are provided only as a guide to show a knowledgeable, trained erector the correct part  
placement one to another. If following any of the installation steps would endanger a worker, the erector should  
stop work and decide upon a corrective action.  
Provide required safety railing, netting, or safety lines for crew members working on the roof.  
Do not use the roof panel as a walking platform. The roof panels will not withstand the weight of a person  
standing at the edge of the panel.  
Do not stand on the roof panel until the panels have been attached.

1. Theoretical section properties have been calculated per AISI 2007 'North American Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel  
Structural Members'. Ixx and Sxx are effective section properties for deflection and bending.  
2. Allowable load is calculated in accordance with AISI 2007 specifications considering bending, shear, combined bending and shear and  
deflection. Allowable load considers the 3 or more equal spans condition. Allowable load does not address web crippling, fasteners,  
support material or load testing. Panel weight is not considered.  
3. Deflection consideration is limited by a maximum deflection ratio of L/180 of span.  
4. Allowable loads do not include a 1/3 stress increase for wind.  
5. Diaphragm Capacity - 296 plf average Ultimate Shear Strength using the above fastening pattern on 2x supports located 2' on center,  
per ASTM E 445.

FASTENER INSTALLATION  
USING SCREWS:  
For fastening with screws, it is best to use a painted or plated screw, Type A or driller tip with a flat rubber washer. The  
correct screw gun is also important to the proper installation of self-drilling or self-tapping screws. A tool with the appropriate  
speed and torque setting (as recommended by the fastener manufacturer) will help prevent fastener thread strip-out and  
possible damage to the panel or its coating. Typically 40 screws should be used per square for 2' wide panels and 80 screws  
should be used per square for 3' wide panels.  
TOO LOOSE  
Sealing material is not  
visible; not enough  
compression to seal.  
TOO TIGHT  
CORRECT  
Washer is deformed;  
sealing material pressed  
beyond fastener edge.  
Sealing material slightly  
visible at edge of washer.  
Assembly is water tight.  
SCREW ATTACHMENT  
SEATING THE WASHER - Apply sufficient torque to seat the washer - do not overdrive the fastener.  
TO PREVENT WOBBLING - Make sure fastener head is completely engaged in the socket. If the head does not go all  
the way in the socket - tap the magnet deeper into the socket to allow full head engagement. Metal chips will build  
up from drilling and should be removed from time to time.  
PROTECT DRILL POINT - Push only hard enough on the screw gun to engage clutch. This prevents excess friction and  
burn out of the drill point. Correct pressure will allow screw to drill and tap without binding.

RECEIVING MATERIAL  
It is the responsibility of the installer to unload material from the delivery truck. The installer shall be responsible for  
providing suitable equipment for unloading of material from the delivery.  
After receiving material, check the condition of the material, and review the shipment against the shipping list to ensure all  
materials are accounted for. If damages or shortages are discovered, it should be noted on the Bill of Lading at the time of  
delivery. A claim should be made against the carrier as soon as possible. Metal Sales is not responsible for any damages or  
shortages unless they are documented in writing and presented to Metal Sales within 48 hours.  
GENERAL HANDLING  
Each bundle should be handled carefully to avoid being damaged. Care should be taken to prevent bending of the  
panel or abrasion to finish. Whenever possible, the bundle should remain crated until it is located in its place of stor-  
age. If bundles must be opened, we recommend you re-crate them before lifting. To avoid damage please lift the  
bundle at its center of gravity.  
CAUTION  
Improper loading and unloading of bundles and crates may result in bodily harm and/or  
material damage. Metal Sales is not responsible for bodily injuries and/or material  
damages resulting from improper loading and unloading.  
MECHANICAL HANDLING  
Forklift - A forklift may be used for panels up to 20'-0" long. Please make sure the forks are at their maximum separation.  
Do not transport open bundles. When transporting bundles across rough terrain, or over a longer distance, some means of  
supporting the panel load must be used.  
Crane - A crane should be used when lifting panels with lengths greater than 20'-0". Please be sure to utilize a spreader bar to  
ensure the even distribution of the weight to the pick up points. As a rule when lifting panels, no more than 1/3 of the length of  
the panel should be left unsupported. Never use wire rope because this will damage the panels.

HANDLING MATERIAL (cont.)  
MANUAL HANDLING  
When handling painted steel, care should be taken to prevent scratching of material. Clean gloves should be worn at all times  
to prevent a reaction with salts found on bare skin. Installers should wear rubber sole shoes to keep from scuffing material  
while walking on the roof.  
Handling of individual panels should be done carefully and properly to avoid bending or damaging. Panels should be carried  
by grasping the edge of the panel so that the panel is vertical to the ground. The panel should not be carried horizontal to the  
ground as this could cause the panel to buckle or bend in the center.  
Normally, individual panels can be handled by people placed every 6'-0" to 8'-0" along the length of the panel.

CLASSIC RIB STORAGE  
GENERAL  
Please inspect panels for moisture accumulation. If moisture has formed, the panels should be unbundled, wiped dry, and  
allowed to dry completely. Once dry, carefully re-stack the panels and loosely recover allowing for ample air circulation.  
Bundled sheets should be stored high enough off of the ground to allow for air circulation and prevent contact with  
accumulating water. Elevate one end of the bundle to allow any moisture to run off the panels. Metal Sales recommends  
covering the bundle with a tarpaulin. Do not use tight fitting plastic-type tarpaulins as panel bundle covers. While they may  
provide protection from heavy downpours, they can also retard necessary ventilation and trap heat and moisture that may  
accelerate metal corrosion. If panels are to be stored in possible bad weather, we suggest they be stored inside. Extended  
storage of panels in a bundle is not recommended. Under no circumstances should the panels be stored near or come in  
contact with salt water, corrosive chemicals, ash, or fumes generated or released inside the building or nearby plants,  
foundries, plating works, kilns, fertilizer, and wet or green lumber.

FOOT TRAFFIC  
Care of metal panels and flashings must be exercised throughout erection. Foot traffic can cause distortion of panel and  
damage to finish. Traffic over the installed system must be kept to an absolute minimum. Installers should wear rubber  
sole shoes to keep from scuffing material while walking on the roof.  
When walking on the roof panels is unavoidable, walk only in the flats of the panel. Walking on the ribs can cause  
damage to the panels.  
REQUIRED TOOLS  
Standard required tools for field installation include:  
• Screw Guns  
• Safety Goggles  
• Gloves  
• Ear Plugs  
• Magnetic Bits  
• Metal Nibbler or Shear  
• Tin Snips  
• Fall Protection  
• Tape Measure  
• Hammer  
• Chalk Line  
• Drill with bits  
• Pop Rivet Gun

CLASSIC RIB  
DESIGN / INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS  
GENERAL  
Metal Sales’ panels are designed to be installed over open framing and/or directly over a wood substrate (minimum 5/8”)  
with 30# felt moisture barrier (or an Ice and Water Shield when required by Local Building Codes).  
Always check with local building codes prior to all installations for any additional requirements that may be specific to your  
area.  
Galvanized and Galvalume panels should not be in contact with, or subject to, water runoff from copper, lead, or uncoated  
steel materials.  
Condensate water from air conditioning units typically contains dissolved copper. This condensate should be discharged  
through a plastic pipe extended beyond the edge of the roof.  
CONDITION OF SUBSTRUCTURE  
The roof should be inspected for any trapped moisture or structural damage such as bowing or sagging rafters and warped or  
loose roof purlins or solid decking. These areas should be repaired prior to installing new metal panels.  
Prior to installation, make sure there are no nails or fasteners protruding from the roof framing or wood substrate which could  
damage the panels and impede the installation process.  
When installed, panel distortion may occur if not applied over properly aligned and uniform substructure.  
Whether installing over new or existing roof, the installer should check the roof deck for squareness before installing panels.  
Several methods can be used to verify squareness of the structure for proper installation of the panels.  
METHOD “A” - One method for checking the roof for squareness is to measure diagonally across one slope of the roof from  
similar points at the ridge and eave and obtain the same dimension.  
METHOD “B” - The 3-4-5 triangle system may also be used. To use this system, measure a point from the corner along the  
edge of the roof at a module of three (3). Measure a point from the same corner along another edge at a module of four (4).  
By measuring diagonally between the two points established, the dimension should be exactly a module of five (5) to have a  
square corner. Multiple uses of this system may be required to determine building squareness. If the endwall cannot be made  
square, the roof system cannot be installed as shown in these instructions.

CLASSIC RIB FIELD CUTTING AND TOUCH-UP  
FIELD CUTTING  
Tin snips or a "nibbler" type electric tool are recommended for field cutting metal panels. Cutting the steel generates slivers  
or metal chips. These slivers and metal chips must be immediately removed from the panels because they will damage the  
finish and shorten the life of the product.  
One method of preventing this problem is to flip the panels over when cutting. This allows the slivers and metal chips to be  
brushed from the back side and avoids damaging the paint on the top side of the panels.  
When cutting metal panels and flashings, goggles must be worn for eye protection.  
CAUTION  
All product surfaces should be free of debris at all times. Installed surfaces should be  
wiped clean at the end of each work period. Never cut panels over metal surfaces.  
Metal shavings will rust on the surface, voiding the warranty.  
TOUCH-UP PAINT  
All painted panels and flashings have a factory applied baked on finish. Handling and installing panels may result in some  
small scratches or nicks to the paint finish. Touch-up paint is available in matching colors from Metal Sales. It is recom-  
mended that a small brush be used to apply touch-up paint to those areas that are in need of repair. Touch-up paint does not  
have the superior chalk and fade resistance of the factory applied paint finish and will normally discolor at an accelerated  
rate. Aerosol paint should not be used because of the overspray that may occur.  
SPRAY PAINT  
TOUCH-UP PAINT  
VENTILATION  
Proper design and installation of vapor barriers and ventilation systems are important to prevent condensation and the result-  
ing problems of moisture damage and loss of insulation efficiency.  
Condensation occurs when moisture laden air comes in contact with a surface temperature equal to or below the dew point of  
the air. This phenomenon creates problems that are not unique with metal buildings; these problems are common to all types  
of construction.  
The underside of the metal roof on a typical metal building (no attic) should be protected from condensation by insulating  
with a faced insulation. This should reduce the potential of condensation forming on the underside of the panels.  
On buildings that have an attic space or are being retrofitted with a metal roofing system, vents should be placed at both the  
eave and peak of the roof in order to prevent a buildup of moisture (humidity) in the attic space.

Length - Minimum factory cut length is 5'-0" on panels. Panels over 45'-0" require additional consideration in packaging,  
shipping, and erection. Please consult Metal Sales for recommendations.  
There are two critical measurements involving metal panels: the length of panel overhang required at the eave, and the peak  
end. In each case a certain measurement is required. Check each measurement to ensure panel placement gives you the dis-  
tance required at the eave, and peak condition. In most cases any variance can be taken out at the eave or peak ends.

INSTALLATION OVERVIEW  
As shown below with the number designations, install panel against the prevailing wind. Installing Wall Panels first then  
Roof Panels  
To minimize corrosion, siding panels should not be installed all the way to the ground.  
Siding panels should lap over the foundations or splash boards at least three inches.  
Make sure panels are square and plumb, to assure straight and proper alignment of the entire row of panels.  
For areas with high wind considerations, closer fastener spacing may be required.  
It is necessary to attach a temporary guide to the foundation to use as an alignment guide when installing siding panels.  
Siphon groove side of panel must be overlapped with the non siphon groove side of the adjacent panel (if applicable) .

CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
Though factory applied pre-painted finishes are very durable and will last many years, eventually it may be desirable to  
thoroughly clean or repaint them.  
Dirt pickup may cause apparent discoloration of the paint when it has been exposed in some dirt-laden environments for long  
periods of time. In areas of strong sunlight, slight chalking may cause some change in appearance. A good cleaning will often  
restore the appearance of these buildings and render repainting unnecessary. An occasional light cleaning will help maintain a  
good appearance.  
In many cases, simply washing the building with plain water using a hose or pressure sprayer will be adequate. In areas  
where heavy dirt deposits dull the surface, a cloth or soft bristle brush and solution of water and detergent (1/3 cup of laundry  
detergent per gallon of water for example) may be used. This should be followed by an adequate rinse of water. Do not use  
wire brushes, abrasives, or cleaning tools which will damage the coating surface.  
Mildew may occur in areas subject to high humidity but is not normally a problem due to the high inherent mildew resistance  
of the baked finish that is used. To remove mildew along with the dirt, the following solution is recommended.  
1/3 cup detergent (Tide® or equivalent)  
2/3 cup trisodium phosphate (Solex® or equivalent)  
1 quart of 5% sodium hypochlorite solution (Clorox® or equivalent)  
3 quarts of water  
Strong solvents and abrasive type cleaners should be avoided. Most organic solvents are flammable and toxic and must be  
handled accordingly. When using a solvent, consult maintenance professionals and label instructions for proper handling  
and disposal of washings. If required, a mild solvent such as mineral spirits can be used to remove caulking compounds,  
oil, grease, tars, wax, and similar substances. Use a cloth dampened with mineral spirits and apply only to areas which are  
contaminated. Follow up the use of this mild solvent with detergent cleaning and rinsing.

WIRE BRUSH  
HOSE OR PRESSURE SPRAY
