How to install a corrugated metal roof on logic shed.

This video shows how i installed a metal panelled roof. Then trim all edges of the roof with metal trim made for that purpose. 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. Start screwing on the metal panels around the outside first then finish the job beginning at one side.

Install the roofing screws vertically along each rib in the panel. Lay the roofing felt. Finish the first side of the roof. Beginning at the outside edge of your roof place each panel directly onto the purlins that are attached to the roof trusses.

Continue laying panels and attaching them to the tar or the boards until you reach the other side. Replace canvas roof with corrugated steel. The sheets should overlap by at least four inches add a bead of caulk where they overlap and at the other end of the building ensure there s an overhang of two inches.

To prevent it sailing away with the next windstorm i anchored the frame to the ground with 3 8 spiral ground anchor screws.

To install corrugated roofing start by cutting your panels to length with an angle grinder. Be sure the larger edge is laid so that the small edge of the next panel will overlap it.

Secure the sheets into place with screws. Then attach the metal roof material with screws make for roofing. Complete the first row.
