Its like glass but better 😎.

What happens here

With the support rails securely in place, the large translucent roof panels are now ready for installation. Workers are seen carefully lifting and positioning these panels onto their designated channels or grooves within the support rail system. The panels appear robust, as workers are shown walking on them during the installation, suggesting they can support weight. Each panel is slid into its precise position, ensuring proper alignment with adjacent panels and the overall structure. They are then fastened securely to the support rails using specialized clips, gaskets, and screws. This fastening process is critical to ensure a watertight seal, prevent uplift from wind, and maintain the structural integrity and durability of the entire roof system. Precision is key in this step to achieve a professional finish and long-term performance.

Goal: Securely place and fasten the translucent panels onto the prepared frame structure.
