Product Group: SEAM METAL ROOF SYSTEM - FF100 PANEL


DESCRIPTION

The FF100 Panel is a metal roof panel formed from 24 gauge. The panel can be applied on to solid sheeting with or without insulation. Width from 300 mm (12") to 500 mm (20") wide with a 25 mm (1") height at the male rib. Panels are continuous with no end laps.

Fasteners (screws) used to attach panels to plywood deck to be No. 8 by 22 mm (1") panhead. Fasteners to be placed a maximum of 600 mm (24") on center.

PART 1 - GENERAL
1.1 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 Range of application: on wood or metal sloped roofs; in commercial, institutional, industrial and residential construction; also used for roof replacement (retrofit) application.
1.3 DELIVERY, STORAGE AND HANDLING
.1 Protect against damage and discoloration.
.2 Handle panels with non-marring slings.
.3 Do not bend panels.
.4 Store panels above ground, with one end elevated for drainage.
.5 Protect panels against standing water and condensation between adjacent surfaces.
.6 If panels become wet, immediately separate sheets, wipe dry with clean cloth, allow to air dry.
PART 2 - PRODUCTS
2.1 FABRICATION
.1 Unless otherwise shown on drawings or specified herein, fabricate panels in continuous one piece lengths and fabricate flashings and accessories in longest practical lengths.
.2 Roofing panels shall be factory formed. Field formed panels are not acceptable.
PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.1 EXAMINATION - EXISTING CONDITIONS
.1 Verify that structural deck to receive panels is complete, in true plane, secure and otherwise properly prepared.
.2 Prior to starting work, notify General Contractor about defects requiring correction.
.3 Do not start work until conditions are satisfactory.
3.2 PREPARATION - FIELD MEASUREMENTS
.1 Verify prior to fabrication.
.2 If field measurements differ from drawing dimensions, notify Architect / Professional Engineer prior to fabrication.
3.3 PROTECTION
.1 Treat, or isolate with protective material, any contacting surfaces of dissimilar materials to prevent electrolytic corrosion.
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.
