<p>Hi Bill;</p>
<p>Not to hijack the thread, but how did you handle fall protection
and work safely on that 12:12 pitch metal roof? I have a steep
standing seam roof project coming up. We wanted to set a ledger
board on S5 clips, but were worried they would leave visible
damage to the new roof. <br>
</p>
<p>Thanks</p>

<div dir="auto">Just finished using S5PV railess on standing
seam roof 12x12 pitch. Worked great, but wire management was
challenging with minimal clearance under modules. Had to
think ahead to make it work. And still was a struggle. I
also used 6 rather then 4 per module to even out the loads on
the roof panels. I feel confident that it is solid, but I
know how the roof was connected to include proper clip spacing
and screw size for maximum wind load here in the Columbia
Gorge and proper tacking of the top of the panel under the
ridge to prevent sliding down. If I had it to do over I would
however have used rails to make wire management easier!</div>

<br>
I\u2019ve got a client who is set on wanting to do rail less
racking. I\u2019m just working with him on overall design, hes
doing the work.<br>
<br>
Its not a large system. 16 modules on two roof orientations,
( 4 on one, 12 on the other) with offset modules. Standing
metal seam roof that is being installed with solar in mind,
lots of fasteners.<br>
<br>
Hes very competent and pays attention to details.<br>
<br>
Any positive/negative recommendations.<br>
<br>
thanks in advance,<br>
