Steps:
1. When the roof panel installation has reached the opposite end of the roof, the last panel run may need to be field modified
to attach to the Floating Rake Angle previously installed.
2. Measure the distance between the vertical leg of the last full panel run and the vertical leg of the Floating Rake Angle
at the eave, endlap, and peak. See dimension “A”.
3. Determine if a full panel will fit between the last full run and the Floating Rake Angle. In most cases it will not fit. If the
full panel will fit, then continue with the installation of the roof. When the last panel is installed the vertical leg of the
male side must fit flush with the Floating Rake Angle.
4. If a full panel is too wide to fit between the last full panel run and the Floating Rake Angle, a panel will have to be field
cut and bent to simulate a male leg.
5. Use the dimension “A” and mark a line on the last panel to serve as the bend line. Mark a second line (the same dimension
as the panel rib height) past the bend line to be the line you will cut off the excess panel.
6. Field-bend the roof panel up 90 degrees to from a vertical leg.
7. Place termination panel between last full panel and vertical leg of Floating Rake Angle making sure the panel fits properly.
8. Clamp termination panel to leg of Floating Rake Angle until Rake Detail is to be installed. (See page 63 for details.)
