ROOF DAY. #polebarn #construction
What happens here
Begin installing the metal roofing panels, starting from one end of the roof and working across. The video briefly shows workers positioning and securing panels. Carefully lift each panel onto the roof, aligning it precisely with the eave and gable trim, and ensuring it overlaps correctly with any previously installed panels. Secure the panels to the purlins using appropriate self-tapping screws with neoprene washers to create a watertight seal. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for screw placement and spacing. Continue this process, overlapping each panel correctly until the entire roof surface is covered.
Goal: Cover the roof structure with metal panels.
