<br />Installation Instructions for MasterRibrl? <br /> <br />Stor~~ <br /> <br />If metal is not to be used immediately, store inside in a well ventilated dtY location. Condensation or other moisture can form between the sheets <br />during storage causing water stains or white rust which detract from the appearance of the product and may affect the product's useful life. Tr.qlped <br />moisture between sbeets of painted metal can cause white rust to form underneath the paint. This can cause the paint to f)"Jcp off <br />the panel immediately or several years . later. To prevent white rust and staining, break the shipping bands on the material. Store the material <br />on end or on an incline of at least 8" with a supporting board nndemeath to prevent sagging. Fan the sheets slightly at the bottom to allow for air <br />circulation. Keep the sheets off of the gronnd with an insulator such as wood. Any outdoor sto~ is at the customer's own risk. If outdoor storage <br />cannot be avoided, protect the metal using a canvas cover or waterproof paper. Never cover the metal with plastic as this will cause condensation to form. <br /> <br />Some Safety Precautions <br /> <br />Always wear heavy gloves when working with steel panels to avOid cuts from sharp edges. When cutting or drilling steel panels, always wear safety glasses <br />and sweep off any metal shavings immediately to prevent eye injury from flying metal fragments. If you must walk on a metal roof, take great care. Metal <br />panels can become slippery, so always wear shoes with non-slip soles. Avoid working on metal roofs during wet conditions when the panels can become <br />extremely slippery. Walking or standing on a metal roof which does not have a plywood or other deck beneati;J. it i~ not recommended. However, if you <br />must do so, always walk on the purlins, never between. Do not for any reason walk on a roof made of material less thick than 29.gauge. <br /> <br />General Installation Information <br /> <br />I n.rure that the .rtnIcture is square and lnIe bifore beginning panel installation. If the .rtnIcture is not square, the panels wiff not properfy seal at the side laps. <br />Green or damp lUmber is not recommended. Moisture released from the damp lumber may damage the metal panels. N~ installed in green or damp <br />lumber may back out. <br />The prevention of steel debris staining is the responsibility of the installer. The recommended tools for on site cutting are profile shears, hand shears, <br />or electric nibblers. Friction saws and abrasive discs should not be used to cut panels.. <br />Remove any loose metal shavings left on roof surface immediately to prevent corrosion. After installing roof, remove any debris such as leaves or dirt <br />to prevent moisture from getting trapped on panels. <br /> <br />Fastening <br />If you wish to predrill fastener holes, use a cover sheet to prevent hot shavings from sticking to panels. <br />Screws - For best results use a 1-1/2" doublewa.~hered wood screw in the flat of the panel as shown in the illustration bel~ Fasteners should be applied <br />at every purlin. Drive the fastener so that the washer is compressed securely against the metal. Do not over drive the fastener as this will form a dimple <br />that can collect water and cause leakage. Do not leave any loose fasteners that have missed the purlin. Use a #14 stitch screw or caulk to fill the hole. <br /> <br />Nails - If the panels are nailed, use 1-3/4" ring-shanked neoprene washered nails. Nail into the crown of the major ribs of the panel as <br />illustrated below. (See Figure #2). NOTE: H rigid insulation is used directly under the panel, the fastener length needs to be increased to allow <br />a minimum of I" penetration into the wood. General installation instructions listed above for screws also apply to nails. Do not apply nails into flat <br />area of panel. <br /> <br />F~ure #1 - Fastening Patterns for MasterRib@ <br />RE~MENDED FASTENING PATTERN FOR1...1/.Z" SCREWS <br /> <br />Figure #2 - (Nails only) <br />ALL ~p~~rL OVER DRIVEN <br />PRE..
