Portable Roll-Formed Metal Panels Vs. Preformed Metal Panels: Answers to the questions you never asked (Room Architects Experience Learning Center)

13 Oct 22
4:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Tracks: Metal in Architecture

Description:

This highly energized, interactive session guarantees design professionals will gain unique insights into the benefits of portable roll-forming and its unquestionable impact on efficiency, flexibility, and sustainability. We drill down to reveal a controversial comparative review of preformed standing seam metal panels versus today's portable roll-formed standing seam metal panels. Applicable engineering? Let us align that decking assembly with the proper engineering for a change! Testing standards? ho hum. But wait, wait! Who does not love to push metal to its outer limits – there is a video reveal! And wrap it all up quite nicely with installation details delivering best practice results. Yes, you have options, and they always start with a conversation.

Learning Objectives:

  • Define the benefits of Portable Roll-forming
  • Describe how a UL 90 Wind Uplift Classification or rating is achieved
  • Explain the difference between a metal panel manufacturer providing written test reports from a qualified testing and inspecting agency representing Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (UL) versus providing a listing of the UL Construction Number(s)
  • Correctly specify applicable uplift testing requirements based upon the project's deck assembly.
  • Recognize the appropriate cost-effective installation details to apply, based upon job specific conditions.
