installation hintsLength Metroll supplies METROSPAN® sheeting cut to order as required depending on load limit regulations set by the relevant local transport authority. Lengths to be manufactured need to be site measurements, not those taken off plans. Handling of Material When handling METROSPAN® care should be taken at all times to preserve the quality of the finish. Packs should be kept dry and stored above ground on dunnage whilst on site. If sheets do become wet, these need to be separated, wiped and placed in the open air to dry. Cutting METROSPAN® roof sheeting can be cut by using a circular saw with a metal blade. When you cut COLORBOND® steel sheeting ensure the coloured surface is placed downwards to lessen the likelihood of swarf being embedded in the exposed roof surface. Walking on Sheeting When walking on METROSPAN® roof sheeting always wear flat rubber soled shoes and only walk over areas where you have purlin or batten supports. Material Compatibility Never use lead flashings with ZINCALUME® steel or COLORBOND® steel METROSPAN® roof sheeting. Drainage from copper roofs onto ZINCALUME® steel, COLORBOND® steel, galvanised steel roofing or rainwater products should not be allowed. Materials METROSPAN® roof sheeting can be roll formed to order in ZINCALUME® steel, galvanised steel or a wide variety of COLORBOND® steel colours. Please enquire at your nearest Metroll office concerning colour range, lead time and availability. Harsh Environments If you intend to use METROSPAN® roof sheeting within 1km of industrial, chemical, marine or unusually corrosive environments, please contact your closest Metroll office for advice on the right product to use and refer to appropriate BlueScope® Steel Technical Bulletins. Clean Up Prior to departing the work site please take care to remove all foreign debris, screws, rivets and especially any swarf from drilling or cutting from the roof surface or from inside the gutters. Failure to do this may result in premature corrosion of the roof or gutter system. Design & Building Specifications This profile needs to be specified as METROSPAN® as manufactured by Metroll Pty Ltd and needs to be fixed in a workmanlike manner and in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations. Base sheet steel shall be G550/AZ150 with specified finish. Availability & Delivery To prevent damage when lifting long lengths of sheeting by crane, ensure that the load is evenly spread. Where a crane cannot be made available, the customer is responsible for providing sufficient labour to help the driver to unload. You can avoid damage when lifting long lengths of sheeting by crane by evenly loading the sheets. Online Enquiry Call Metroll Newcastle |
