R -PANEL Installation Guide
Measuring The Roof 1) Measure from Eave Fascia Board to peak of Ridge to determine panel length. 2) Measure length of eave and divide by panel coverage width to determine number of panels needed. 3) For panels that intersect a Valley, measure the longest panel length and the ridge length. Divide the ridge length by the panel coverage width to determine the number of panels needed. Divide the longest panel length by the number of panels. This will give you the length you need to deduct from each panel. 4) For panels that intersect at a Hip loca\on use the same method as a valley but use the eave dimension versus the ridge. 5) For calcula\ng flashings measure each individual area and divide by 10'. The standard flashing length is 10'-‐6". Measuring all the area and adding them together can result in being short pieces of flashing or having to piece small pieces together. 6) For calcula\ng panel fasteners calculated 1 screw per every square foot. For flashing fasteners 10 screws per piece of flashing.
Tools Required Standard Tools required for field installa\on: Screw Guns Magne\c Bits Metal Nibbler or Shear Tin Snips Tape Measure Hammer Chalk Line Drill with bits Pop Rivet Gun Safety Goggles Ear Plugs Gloves Fall Protec\on

Storage If Metal is not going to be used immediately, store the material inside in a well ven\lated area. If storing the material inside is not an op\on, the material must be stored off of the ground with one end 4" to 8" higher than the other to allow for run-‐ off. When storing outside cover the material with a Tarp to protect from the elements.
Handling When handling metal panels, special care should be taken to prevent scratching of the material. Always use clean gloves or hands to hand material to reduce the risk of transferring dirt and oils to the material. Panels should always be carried by the panel edge so the panel is ver\cal to the ground. Panels should never be carried horizontal as this can result in bending or buckling of the panel.
Safety Always wear gloves when working with metal panels to avoid cuts from sharp edges. When cufng or drilling metal panels always wear safety glasses and sweep off any metal shavings to prevent eye injuries from flying metal fragments. Metal Panels can be slippery in dry weather condi\ons so wear shoes with non-‐ slip soles. Avoid working or walking on metal roofs during wet condi\ons as the panels will become extremely slippery.

Pre-‐Installation Before beginning installa\on the installer should check the roof deck for squareness. MetalMax recommends 2 different methods for verifying this. Method "1" -‐ Measure diagonally across one slope from similar points at the ridge and eave. If the roof area is square then the measurements will be the same. Make adjustments as necessary to achieve a square area. Use a chalk line to mark the square line from Eave to Ridge. Method "2" -‐ Using the 3-‐4-‐5 triangle system. Measure along the eave to a mul\ple of 3, measure along the gable end to a mul\ple of 4. The diagonal of these should be a mul\ple of 5. If the diagonal is not a mul\ple of 5 you will need to adjust your measuring points star\ng with the 4 leg un\l a square surface has been determined. Use a chalk line to mark the square line from Eave to Ridge.
