The panels are clipped on the sides as shown. Stainless rivets and screws at penetration flashings.

That application will last as long you own the house we started doing the self adhesive base with a smooth and granulated cap sheet it one hell of roof. Just finished one on my bank my guys really like working with self adhesive base.

A heat resistant metal Self Adhesive underlayment. Polyglass Q is the product. Yes a smooth membrane would have been more compatible in hind site.. The flat was done a year ago, self adhesive base , torch applied smooth and a 1/2 lap granulated modified torched over the smooth coat.

Vaa Fakaosifolau Said: Good planning ahead CIAK, solves that issue. Dont you think a smooth single ply membrane would be more compatible? Maybe you are restricted by whats already on the flat roof to using modified? So what is that blue shaded strip then?

Thank you Dave. I'll move them to a new folder and name them. Here's hoping. B) :) :) B) Deep Down In Florida Where The Sun Shines Damn Near Every Day

The repair is a minor problem on this type install.. In the pic the tube paneled leaked in our first rain after install. Drill bit for rivets went through metal,underlayment ,and wood. I was able to get the short panels off and repair without much problem. The panels are snap- locks Flat roof tie in is pre planned. 2 ft flat panel slid up flashing below not crimped. If you look closely the flashing panel is installed. All panels over smooth coat underlayments to prevent abrasive modified granules rubbing galvalume coating during expansion and contraction cycles, rusting bottom of panel. I will try to post a pic of that detail. B) :) :) B) Deep Down In Florida Where The Sun Shines Damn Near Every Day

On a gable roof like that, the panels will go on rather quickly. When you come to the skylights and stack pipes it takes a bit more time, but when you come to a hip or a valley the process almost "stops". Standing seam metal roofing is a process for sure. I also wondered like VA did about the flat roofs below. It looks like within a short time you will have to be redoing them. Did you tuck a membrane or a flashing beneath the panels at the bottom to allow for that? In reference to taking the panels apart, it can be done if they are a snap lock; albeit it is a pain in the ass, but if it is mechanically seamed you are in for a major hassle.

I have installed the Metro stone coated shingles and on them you "zip" screw the fronts down instead of locking them to the panel below and that makes it easier to take them apart. On something like you are doing there, the Metros would make it easy to install and easy to take apart if need be. Supposedly they can go down to a 2/ 12 pitch too, with a 150 mph rating for wind. I think that would meet Miami Dade. Just a thought, though you are certainly "committed" to the standing seam now.

It is " The Humble Abode" . Pretty much standard application for this type of panel. I did my best on the underlayment knowing Deep Down In Florida Where The Sun Shines Damn Near Every Day that water proof solid high quality underlayments are the key to longevity and top performance with this type of roof pitch.

Is that your house? That is pretty standard up here at least. I looked at the pictures of your house and they did a nice job.
