1. Handling and Storage.
Panel’s packages handling (unloading and movement) and storage @ project site is a
delicate phase during which panels might get damaged. For these reasons, the
following instructions should be thoroughly observed.

Unloading with Forklifts:

 Recommend only in case of leveled and smooth terrain.
 Forks should be longer than package’s width.
 Forks should be spread apart as much possible.
 Forks upper surface should be clean and smooth, in order damages of panels
surface
 Never unload more than one package at a time.

Storing Panel at Project Site:

 Place package on smooth, level and rigid terrain.

 Support packages on wooden or polystyrene spacer’s width 200mm, every
1.00m.
 Packages should be placed slightly inclined to allow for eventual infiltration - /
condensation water drainage.
 Maximum 2 or 3 packages should be stacked in height (as transported)
 Packages should be stored at sheltered places. If not possible, they should be
protected from rain and sun rays with rainproof membrane, ensuring, at the
same time, adequate ventilation of the packages.
 The removable film of panels’ surface should not be exposed to sun rays for
prolonged periods. In any case, it should be removed within 45 days from
panel’s production date.

2.1 Roof Cladding:

2.1.1. Preliminaries – Safety Considerations
 Check that the panels have been stored as recommended.
 Check that the purlins (supporting structures of the panel) comply
with the project drawing (span length, width of purlins flange etc.)
they are not deformed and they form a plane. Panels are designed
for installation on plane surface of minimum slope 7%.
 Check that safety measures have been implemented.
 Check the installation workers bear the appropriate (PPE).
 Prepare a lifeline during roof panel installation.

  Installation workers are recommended to bear hand gloves (cutting
precautions) and footwear with soft soles in order avoids eventual
panels’ surface scratching / damaging.

2.1.2. Lifting (by Boom Lift):

 Package should be placed on the roof longitudinal to the purlins and
perpendicular to the main rafter load bearing.
 Package should be secured on the roof structure against slipping and
uplifting forces.

2.1.3 Lifting (by Crane):
 Package should be placed on the roof purlins, close to the main
trusses (load bearing structure) and distributed along roof’s length,
taking into considerations the installation direction.
 Package should be secured on the roof structure against slipping and
uplifting forces.
 Capacity of lifting belt and beam should be atleast 10 tons minimum.

2.1.4 Installation Procedure:

 The polyethylene protective film on the internal side be remove
before panels’ edges - joint installation.
 On the external side, the protective film should be partially removed
(along panel’s edges – joint) in order to allow additional protection
during installation works.
 Film should be completely removed by the end of the working shift,
and any case, before panel’s fixing on the internal trapezoidal ribs.
 Any eventual traces of adhesive (from the film) on panel’s surfaces
should be removed with the use of a water – detergent mixture.

  Bring the package of panel near the end wall of building longitudinal
in position.

 Lift the panel by the use of boom lift (JCB540) for at least one line of

  The first strip panel is secured on the roof gable edge.
 After installation of the first strip panels (downstream) the second
strip panels are installed by longitudinal overlapping.
 Application of beadmastic, see detail-1 side lap detail and End Lap
detail drawing.

ROOF DETAIL SECTION

 Longitudinal overlapping of the upstream panel can vary between

100mm and 300mm, also depending on roof slope.
 The second line panel are installed by overlapping its first (empty rib

installed by longitudinal overlapping

 The required number of screws and types to be used, will be decided

according to the supplier’s data.

 During drilling, fixing (and eventually cutting) operations, metal

chippings are produced, that can damage panel’s surface either by
scratching or by their rapid corrosion, and such metal chippings
should be carefully removed.

smaller opening mark A to bigger opening mark B
 Smaller opening mark A is on the top of bigger opening mark B,
overlap for maximum of 80mm and join together with a double strip
of silicone and two lines of pop rivet.
 Pre-joint eave gutter, bring up to the roof for assemble and join
together.
 Start from gable trim corner, fix together with gutter strap at
1100mm C/C and a gutter support of 1100mm C/C respectively.
 Continue the installation process up to the end of the building same

2.1.8 Installation Of Gutter, Support, Downspout And Strap:

 The correct installation of gutters and downspout cannot be over-

emphasized. The overall appearance of the building depends
primarily on the quality of the installation of the gutters. Keep all
gutter lines straight with a strap and make all bends sharp and neat.
Be sure edges are jagged, dented, crimped or serrated. End joints
and lapse must be closely controlled.
