1. Theoretical section properties have been calculated per AISI 2001 “Specification for the Design of Cold-formed Steel Structural Members.” Ixx and Sxx are
effective section properties for deflection and bending.
2. Allowable load is calculated in accordance with AISI 2001 specifications considering bending, shear, combined bending and shear, deflection, and applicable
testing when available. Allowable load considers the worst case of 3 and 4 equal span conditions. Allowable load does not address web crippling or
fasteners/support connection and panel weight is not considered.
3. Deflection consideration is limited by a maximum deflection ratio of L/180 of span.
4. Allowable loads do not include a 1/3 stress increase in uplift.
GENERAL INFORMATION
ATTACHMENT DETAIL
FASTENING PATTERNS
R-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.
R-Panels are available in a 1

/

" rib height with a coverage
width of 36".
Minimum factory cut length is 5'-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.
