DESCRIPTION

The New Tech Machinery Panel Machine is an on-site continuous metal roofing panel roll forming machine. This machine produces Snap Lock - FF 100 with a seam height of 25 mm (1"). The panel profile varies from 305 mm (12") to 610 mm (24") wide.

On-site roll forming provides for the elimination of end laps with continuous panel forming capabilities in lengths up to nominal 46m (150').

1.1 GENERAL

The roofing assembly / material information published in the RCABC Roofing Practices Manual DOES NOT represent a complete set of the manufacturer's published data, nor does it represent a detailed specification. The preparation of a detailed specification is the responsibility of the design authority.

1.2 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

.1 Metal panels employ a hidden fastening system for securement to a solid substrate. 1" Snap-Lock panels are produced with a nail strip to eliminate the use of clips and allows the panel seams to interlock without having to use a mechanical seaming device.

.2 The range of application for this panel: on wood or metal sloped roofs; in commercial, institutional, industrial and residential applications; for re-roofing or new construction.

.3 Panel Attachment:

Fasteners - used to attach to plywood to be #10-12 x 25mm (1") long, pancake head, No. 2 Phillips or Robertson drive, A-point, coated steel screw. Fasteners to be spaced min. 610 mm (24") on centre fastened to plywood deck.

.4 Plywood decking is to be a nominal 13 mm (1/2") thick or thicker.

1.3 SITE CONDITIONS

.1 Minimum roof slope is 1:4 (3" in 12"). Severe conditions (heavy snow or ice) minimum slope is 1:2.5 (8" in 12").

1.4 PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS

1. Wind Uplift Standards: Engineered designs to resist wind uplift may refer to the British Columbia Building Code, Div. B, Appendix C, Table C-2 which lists various types of loads, including wind loads, for specific reference locations throughout the province. See also Guides and Notes (Wind Resistance) for a simplified calculation procedure. Regardless of the resources indicated here, the Design Authority is responsible to perform accurate wind load calculations and specify securement requirements.
2. Materials:RoofStar (RGC) accepted metal panel systems shall be formed of steel conforming to the standards published in the Architectural Sheet Metal (ASM) Roof Standards.
