SEAM-LOC 24 ®
Care of metal panels and flashings must be exercised throughout erection. Foot traffic can cause distortion of panel and damage
to finish. Traffic over the installed system must be kept to an absolute minimum. If continuous foot traffic is necessary for
maintenance over certain areas of the roof, then a permanent walkway should be installed.
If metal panels are installed over open framing, do not use the roof panel as a walking platform. The roof panels will not
withstand the weight of a person standing at the edge of the panel. Provide walking platforms to avoid any panel damage as
shown below.
When walking on the roof panels is unavoidable, walk only in the flats of the panel. Walking on the ribs can cause damage
to the panels. If Seam-Loc 24 is installed over open framing, step in the flat of the panel only and as close to the framing
as possible.
