1. Section properties and allowable loads are calculated per AISI 2001 including 2004 Supplement.
2. Ixx and Sxx are effective section properties for deflection and bending
3. Allowable loads/spans are calculated considering bending, shear, combined bending and shear and deflection.
4. Allowable loads/spans calculations do not include consideration for web crippling, fastener / connection limitations or uplift testing.
5. Allowable loads/spans do not include a 1/3 stress increase.
6. Allowable loads for 24 ga on 16 ga purlins are based on ASTM E 1592 test results.

GENERAL INFORMATION
ROOF ATTACHMENT
FASTENING PATTERNS
The minimum recommended slope for 7/8" Corrugated roofing
panel is 1:12.
7/8" Corrugated panel is designed to be utilized over open
structural framing but can easily be used with a solid substrate.
To avoid panel distortion use a properly aligned and uniform
substructure.
7/8" Corrugated panel has a coverage width of 32"
Minimum factory cut length is 3'-0". Maximum recommended
panel length is 45'-0". Longer panels require additional
consideration in packaging, shipping, and erection. Please
consult Metal Sales for recommendations.
The fastener selection guide should be consulted for choosing
the proper fastener for specific applications. Quantity and type
of fastener must meet necessary loading and code requirements
NOTE: All panels are subject to surface distortion due to
improperly applied fasteners. Overdriven fasteners will cause
stress and induce oil canning across the face of the panel at or
near the point of attachment.
