How to install corrugated iron roofing.

Align the first metal roofing panel so that it overlaps the edging by 1 2 to 3 4 of an inch and is square to the roof line. Install the roofing screws vertically along each rib in the panel. Be sure the larger edge is laid so that the small edge of the next panel will overlap it. Screw the second sheet through the first and into the framing.

To install corrugated roofing start by cutting your panels to length with an angle grinder. Next pre drill holes on the end and side ridges of the panels spacing the holes 6 to 8 inches apart. Before you start to install corrugated metal roofing you need to figure out how much you need. Beginning at the outside edge of your roof place each panel directly onto the purlins that are attached to the roof trusses.

Lay the remainder of the row. Work toward the sides of the roof deck cutting panels to fit as necessary. Continue onto the next rows. Place a second corrugated sheet next to the first with the ridge of the panel overlapping.

Fit the first sheet.
