Note: It is critical that purlins at the ridge and endlap be exactly located as detailed on erection
drawings in order for panels to have adequate movement due to thermal expansion and contraction.
Panels with endlaps must be fixed at the eave and endlap splices are to be installed inline along the
same purlin. The following procedures also apply to panel runs with multiple laps.

INSTALLATION OF PANEL (

.)
Steps:
1. The eave panel when installed should measure 8" from the web of the endlap purlin to the end of the eave panel. This
dimension must be verified. If the panel extends past the web of the endlap purlin by 8", verify that the eave overhang
dimension is correct.
2. The male and female legs of the high end of the eave panel are factory notched 2" to allow the peak panel to nest inside
the eave panel.
3. Slide Back-up Channel under panel in center of endlap and cee clamp to panel to hold in place for attachment.
4. Apply Endlap Pad on the notched end of the eave panel down male leg, across panel flat, and up the female leg ½" to ¾"
from the end of the panel.
5. Lap the female leg of the peak panel into the female leg of the eave panel lapping the proper 2".
6. Hold the flat of the peak panel up and nest the male legs together.
