 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Building Design and Construction
In order to ensure the anticipated performance and longevity,
protect metal panels from potentially corrosive situations and ma-
terials. When treated lumber will be in direct contact with metal
panels or flashings please note the following: Galvanized steel
is compatible with the CCA (Chromated Copper Arsenate) pres-
sure-treated lumber that was predominantly used before 2004,
but not with the older Penta treated lumber or the new ACQ (Al-
kaline Copper Quartenary), CA (Copper Azole), or CBA (Copper
Boron Azole). Stainless steel or other special treated fasteners
should be used into these non-compatible pressure treated lum-
bers. Aluminum must be separated from contact with all treated
wood since the soluble copper in the preservative is corrosive to
aluminum. Likewise, dissimilar metals also require a protective
barrier between them to prevent galvanic corrosion. Request
FABRAL Technical Bulletins #803, 106, and 107 for more informa-
tion on treated lumber and dissimilar metals.
Plastic, builders felt, bituminous paint, caulking, or gasket
material may be used to separate panels from treated wood and
dissimilar metals. When using aluminum panels in direct contact
with steel, use a separator as described above and fasten with
Stainless Steel screws.
Fertilizer, lime, acids, feeds, manure, soils, and many other
compounds also cause corrosion in metal panels. Contact be-
tween metal panels and any potentially corrosive materials should
be prevented.
Porous insulation materials may absorb and retain moisture,
and should not be used in direct contact with metal panels. Use a
vapor barrier such as polyethylene plastic or 30-lb felt to prevent
moisture from contacting both the insulation and the metal panel.
FABRALs translucent panels are intended for siding applica-
tions only. In all situations, foot traffic should be avoided on trans-
lucent panels. Translucent panels used in roofing applications will
break down in a short time and cause staining and premature
corrosion of the metal panels below. If used on roofs, apply butyl
caulking to separate the fiberglass panels from the metal. Trans-
lucent panels should be cleaned and sealed regularly, as recom-
mended by the translucent panel manufacturer.
Purlins, Girts and Roof Deck
The substructure to which the metal panels are fastened must
be properly spaced and sufficiently thick to provide a roof or wall
system able to meet required design loads.
A 2 nominal lumber thickness or 1 nominal thickness are
both acceptable purlins. If snow guards are to be installed in the
future, a 2 x 8 purlin can be installed in the area for snow guard
installation. Call engineering for locations of 2 x 8 purlins. When
using purlins, FABRAL recommends a maximum spacing of 24
on-center (note that 5V requires solid decking). Pullout values de-
crease if the fasteners protrude completely through the purlins.
Kiln-dried softwood is recommended for purlins or decking (pine,
fir, hemlock, and spruce). Hardwoods are difficult to fasten into
without splitting and contain tannic acids that are corrosive to
metal panels. Green (non-kiln-dried) lumber may warp, twist, and
shrink as the wood seasons fully, causing waviness in the panels as
well as loosening and leaking of the fasteners.
Solid decking is highly recommended for all residential appli-
cations. When using solid decking or sheathing, always use 30-lb
felt or underlayment and plan on using closer fastener spacing
and larger diameter #14 screws. (Refer to the tables on page
31). butyl caulking at the vertical laps to ensure weather-tight joints.
On re-roofing projects where the condition of the old decking
is in question, or where existing shingles will be left in place, new
2x4 or 1x4 purlins should be fastened through the decking and
into the rafters. This will provide a solid framework for attaching
the metal panels. For more detailed information on re-roofing
applications, consult FABRAL Technical Bulletin #721, Re-Roofing
With Metal. Load tables are available for all FABRAL panels; con-
tact FABRAL for additional information.
Roofing
Panel sidelaps should face away from wind driven rain. To
accomplish this, begin by installing the first sheet square with
the eave and gable at the down wind end of the roof, farthest
away from the source of prevailing winds or away from the primary
viewing location.
In applications requiring a panel endlap, please refer to the
detailed instructions in this booklet. For best results, lap panels as
shown and install in the indicated sequence. All endlaps require
sealant. When weather-tightness is critical, use sealant tape in
all sidelaps.
To provide a drip edge, allow an overhang of 1 to 2 inches at
the eave. At the gable edge, use a gable or sidewall flashing. This
will keep weather out, prevent lifting in high winds, and provide a
neat, finished appearance. The trim and roofing sheet should be
fastened every 12 to 24 inches along the gable edge. Do not step
on panel ribs or on trim pieces to prevent kinking.
Roof Pitch
The metal roofing panels shown in this manual require a min-
imum slope of 2 per foot to ensure proper drainage. Refer to
the rain-carrying table in this booklet for the maximum allowable
panel length per slope that will provide adequate drainage. For
longer slopes and lower roof pitches, contact FABRAL for other
suitable profiles.
Bending and Bowing
Aluminum and Steel roofing and siding sheets are rollformed
from hardened, tempered metal for maximum strength. If a sheet
must be bent, a gentle 90-degree bend is the maximum recom-
mended. Metal should not be re-bent once it has been formed,
nor should it be folded back on itself. When a metal roofing sheet
must be installed on a curved roof, screws should be installed at
every overlapping rib at the sheet ends to resist the natural ten-
dency of the metal to spring back. The standard fastening pattern
is permitted over the rest of the sheet. When installing the metal
panels shown in this booklet over a curved arch, the minimum
radius of the arch is 18 for aluminum panels and 24 for steel pan-
els. Use sealant tape or butyl caulking at all sidelaps and endlaps.
Additional care and fasteners must be provided when securing
the top and bottom purlins on an arched rafter building to pre-
vent the curved panels from pulling the purlins loose from the raf-
ters. Ring-shank pole barn nails, heavy wood screws, lag screws,
or bolts are often used for attaching these purlins.
Siding
Siding should be installed using the standard fastening and
overlap patterns to ensure optimum performance. For strong,
neat corners use hemmed corner flashings. Do not run siding
sheets all the way to the ground. Instead, provide a protective
base of concrete, masonry, treated wood, or similar material and
terminate the siding sheets 6 above grade.
If siding sheets are installed horizontally, use sealant tape or
Install panels from the bottom up so that water is directed away
from, and not into, the lap joints.
Fastening
FABRAL can supply either screws or nails for fastening into
dimension lumber. Always use screws with solid sheathing. Screws
for use with steel panels are galvanized and then coated with an
organic polymer for optimum corrosion resistance. For best re-
sults with aluminum panels, use #300 series stainless steel screws.
The FabrOseal galvanized ring-shank nail, with its premium
long-life silicone rubber gasket, assures a lasting seal and is the
best nail available for steel panels when screws are not the meth-
od being used by the installer.
The correct way to fasten steel panels with nails is to drive
the nail through the top of the rib so the washer is compressed
securely against the metal. Nail placement must be in the ribs
for roofing applications to minimize the potential for roof leaks.
Over-driving the nail can split the washer and dimple the metal,
causing leaks.
Correct Under-Driven Over-Driven
Wood screws with combination metal and neoprene washers
should be installed in the flat area of the panel adjacent to the
ribs, and tightened such that the washer is compressed as illus-
trated above. This will ensure a lasting, leak-proof seal. Remove
any metal filings created by the drilling action of the screws or
pre-drilling of the holes to avoid rust staining on the panel sur-
face. Refer to the fastening schedules in this booklet for the cor-
rect fastener locations.
Flashing and Trim
Always begin flashing installation from the bottom and work
up, so that upper flashings are lapped on top of lower flashings.
This will prevent moisture from leaking under the flashings and
into the structure. Endlap flashings a minimum of 6 and seal the
lap joints with sealant. Extend flashings 4-6 beyond the building,
cut along the bend lines, apply sealant, and fold the side flaps in
and the top flaps down to cap off the ends. Secure with pop-rivets
or stitch screws.
Some roof conditions, such as valleys, may require a longer
endlap and/or a larger flashing to properly drain moisture from
the roof. Factors that influence flashing size, shape, and endlap
requirements include roof pitch, roof geometry, slope length, and
climatic factors (such as heavy snowfall or rainfall).
Whenever possible, begin trim installation at the downwind
end of the roof, farthest away from the source of prevailing winds,
to allow flashing laps to face away from wind-driven rain. Refer to
the details in this book for the proper location of fasteners and
sealants.
The flashings and trims shown in this book are standard parts.
Custom trims are available to meet your specific design needs. If
you need a special trim, please furnish a drawing of the desired
shape, including dimensions and angles, to your Fabral dealer to
obtain pricing and availability.
Refer to the SMACNA Architectural Sheet Metal Manual for
additional information about detailing and installing flashings.
Safety
Always work safely when installing metal products and use
extreme caution on the roof at all times. Wear gloves and safety
glasses to reduce the risk of injury, and use hearing protection
when operating power tools. Always be sure that ladders are
safely positioned and properly secured. Safety harnesses or other
special equipment may be required; be sure to Consult OSHA
guidelines for compliance with all safety requirements.
Do Not walk on panels until all the fasteners are installed.
Metal roofing panels are slippery when wet, dusty, frosty, or oily
-- Do Not attempt to walk on a metal roof under these conditions.
Wear soft-soled shoes to improve traction and to minimize dam-
age to the paint finish. Always be aware of your position on the
roof relative to any roof openings, roof edges, co-workers, and
penetrations. Installing metal panels or flashings on a windy day
can be dangerous and should be avoided if possible.
Cutting Aluminum Panels
To make a cut parallel to the ribs, score the panel deep-
ly with a sharp utility knife and bend back-and-forth along the
score, breaking the metal off cleanly. For cuts across the ribs, use
straight-cut snips, electric or pneumatic shears, a portable profile
shear, or an electric nibbler. Some installers prefer using a circular
saw with a metal cutting blade (a fine-tooth hardwood blade, or a
standard combination blade reversed in the saw works also). Light
oil or soap on the blade will make cutting easier.
Cutting and Drilling Steel Panels
Steel panels may be cut with metal snips, electric or pneu-
matic shears, a portable profile shear, or an electric nibbler. Some
installers prefer using a circular saw to cut metal panels. Do Not
use self-consuming abrasive blades because of the following: 1.
Abrasive blades burn the paint and galvanizing at the cut edge,
leaving edges that are jagged and unsightly and rust more quickly
2. Abrasive blades produce hot metal filings that embed in the
paint and cause rust marks on the face of the panel. If saw cutting
cannot be avoided, select a carbide-tipped blade specially de-
signed for cutting light-gage ferrous metal panels. These blades
are now available at many home centers and lumber yards. 1. All
saw cut panels must be turned face down and cut in a location
down-wind and well away from the building and other panels
to avoid embedment of metal filings on other panels 2. All saw
cut panels must be thoroughly wiped to ensure the removal of
all metal filings. Pre-drilling wall panels gives uniform alignment
of screw rows. Be sure to remove any filings once panels are in-
stalled to avoid rust marks from the filings.
Building Maintenance
A metal roof should be inspected annually and cleaned as
necessary to maintain its beauty and performance. Any debris
or residue, including leaves, twigs, and dust should be cleaned
off promptly to prevent moisture entrapment against the metal,
which may lead to finish deterioration or premature corrosion.
Flashings may need to be re-sealed periodically in order to main-
tain optimum weathertightness.
Proper Storage
Store metal panels indoors when possible; if outdoors, cover
and elevate. Elevate one side higher for water drainage. Never
cover in plastic; us a tarp that can breath. Allow for air circula-
tion. If a bundle gets wet, break bands and separate sheets; allow
sheets to dry completely and only restack if completely dry. Prod-
uct should be stored for a maximum of 2-4 weeks before being
installed.
Spray Foam Insulation
When insulating metal with spray foam insulation, the first
application layer should be getting the insulation behind all fram-
ing members. When completing the insulation, ensure the spray
foam is installed in 2 thick layers (maximum) until desired thick-
ness is achieved.

 ESTIMATING & ROOF TYPES
Estimating Metal Roofing,
Siding & Flashings
Panel lengths are to be determined by the truss
top chord or actual field measurements. Remem-
ber to add for overhangs at the eaves; subtract
for a gap at the ridge. Siding should be kept up
away from the ground with a skirt board.

Number of Panels
The coverage of the panel being used will de-
termine the number of panels at a length (i.e.: 3
coverage panel on a 30 ft. long building would Gambrel Roof
require 10 panels on each side of the ridge or 20
panels at the particular length.)

Horizontal Measurement to a Roof

Divide the building width in half, then multiply
by the slope factor (i.e.: 40 wide building with
4/12 slope. 40 divided by 2 equals 20 times 1.054
equals 21-1 in slope dimension.) Allow for 1/2
to 1 gap at peak and 1 to 2 eave overhang.

BUILDING DETAILS
1. Determine the thickness and type of substrate to be used to support the metal roofing.
Solid decking is highly recommended for all residential applications
(i.e., plywood, OSB).

2. Refer to the Load-Span tables to select the proper fastener and spacing to meet loads on
your structure. Nails are NOT recommended for residential applications.

3. Consult local building codes and restrictions to determine acceptable methods of construction
for residential applications in your area.

4. Solid decking with 30# felt or synthetic underlayment for residential applications is
recommended. Ice & water shield or similar self-adhesive membrane is recommended at all
valleys, dormers, chimneys, transitions, skylights and other critical areas.

5. When re-roofing with metal panels over an existing shingle roof, metal panels may be installed
directly over shingles with underlayment, or 2x4 purlins or 1x4 furring strips.

6. Zip board sheathing, which has a built in vapor barrier, is an acceptable substrate
and vapor barrier.

7. Request Fabrals technical bulletins # 720 and # 721 for more details on residential roofing.

The ENERGY STAR Program

The ENERGY STAR Program promotes highly
reflective roof systems that reflect solar energy.
These roof systems allow buildings to stay cooler
and, in turn, use less electricity for air conditioning; less
electricity means a reduction in power generation and a re-
duction of pollutants discharged at power plants. Fabral
has attained ENERGY STAR approval for many of its Endur-
acote system colors. Ask for Technical Bulletin #724 titled
ENERGY STAR Approval, for program details and a list of
approved Enduracote colors.

All Fabral Enduracote Colors are ENERGY STAR Approved

Please contact your Fabral representative for more information about Fabral warranties and paint systems.
