Western States Metal Roofing’s Post

The ribs on a Western Wave® panel increase its strength, makes it harder to bend and help disguise any oil canning or other imperfections that may form on the panel. You will have much less oil canning on this type of panel when compared to a standard flush wall panel. #metalsiding #architect #contractor #oilcanning #renovation https://hubs.ly/Q02C6th_0

Metal does not absorb moisture like wood or other porous materials. Moisture absorption is a key factor in the development of mold and rot. Since metal does not absorb water, it does not provide an environment where mold and rot can thrive. #architect #construction #renovation #metalroof #metalsiding #commercialbuilding #homeimprovement https://hubs.ly/Q02vDc4Z0

The 4 most common mistakes architects make on drawings... . . Count 'em down: 4) Masonry Anchors -- often forgotten 3) Rooftop Equipment Curb Flashing -- too often left to the engineers 2) Duct Clearance -- not enough space for all that stuff above the ceiling 1) Roof Drain Leaders -- the roof drains are there, but then what??? .

Because not every truss is a wood truss… “… For example, designers for the DATCU Corporate Headquarters in Corinth, Texas, originally specified wood trusses for the large mansard, overhanging roof of the office building. When the local building officials informed the project team that they would have to install a sprinkler system to protect the wood-framed trusses, they decided to go with a CFS truss system instead. Avoiding the installation of a sprinkler system saved the company $40,000…” Link to article: https://lnkd.in/gGz6feFB (Credit: BuildSteel.org) Does a cold formed steel truss make better sense on your next project?

Lead has been a go-to material in construction for centuries. Despite its popularity, it has been used less and less in the past 50 years due to its toxicity. However, a lead sheet is still a key component in the drain assembly of a Mod Bit roof. This helps to create a durable and redundant waterproof detail that can last for over 30 years. There are some great lead alternatives that are becoming more popular and are a great solution for tough flashing details. #roofing #contractor #architect #construction

Can Polycarbonate skylight panels be used for siding? Yes, this is done towards the top six to eight feet of the wall.
