[RE-wrenches] galvanized barn roofing

[Mark Dickson]

This stuff is great! http://www.eternabond.com/DoubleStick-p/cr-ds.htm .
Hint: stick it in the freezer and then trim it to size with shears. Also,
make sure you got it in the right place before you stick it down!

Daryl,

AEE has a corrugated

roof block that works pretty well. Penetrations are through the ridges,
where leaks are less likely, and they can be sealed with Butyl tape. One
draw back, same with the EJOT, is that the metal ridges will rarely line up
with support structure below. You'll need to install extra bracing
underneath for almost every bracket. If working over an insulated attic, you
won't be able to install very far down from the ridge.

Does anyone have experience mounting arrays on barns with 24" wide
galvanized roofing (not standing seam)? It is flat, not corrugated, but
has an overlapping edge on either side. It's pretty much a standard on
barn roofs around here, but I hesitate to penetrate any metal roof. How
have others dealt with this type of material?
 
Thanks for any information,
Daryl
