Bending Techniques for Aluminum Differ From Steel When metal roofing manufacturers first introduced aluminum material for roofing, much of the aluminum produced was .032 thick. However, over the years, the building products industry has been gravitating to thicker roofing and trim materials, especially aluminum. Dade County, Florida, enacted new wind uplift rules for metal roofing that required the use of .040 aluminum for roofs and .050 thickness for trim material to meet the rule requirements. Consequently, contractors were transitioning from the use of .018 to .024 thick Galvalume or Hot Dipped Galvanized steel roofing and trim products to .032 to .050 thick Aluminum. Many contractors assumed aluminum bent the same as steel and thought minor adjustment was needed to make crisp bends on aluminum as they had done with steel. This resulted in some contractors bending these heavier aluminum products beyond their tensile strength limits resulting in cracking of the metal and paint and leaving a silver look from the crazed aluminum under the paint. Contractors can keep the aluminum alloy from cracking under the bending strain by properly adjusting the sheet metal bending brake. To set up the hand brake to perform the bend, recess the top clamping leaf of the hand brake. This will reduce the amount of strain applied to the aluminum and allow you to get a proper bend on the aluminum alloy sheet. 

Metal Roofing is a Symbol of Modernization Metal has unique properties that separate it from other material choices. For over three millennia, metal has been a durable, aesthetically appealing design element for significant buildings. No substance has been as important as metal in the story of man’s control of his environment. Metal as a building material has many sustainability attributes. The greater longevity of metal is one benefit associated with sustainability. Most metals exhibit no degradation over time. This means metal components will perform on buildings for decades with little maintenance or need to be replaced.

Courses For AIA-CEU Credits Englert offers courses for AIA-CEU for Architects. We currently have courses on:  Metal Roof Design in HVHZs: Best Practices for Architects and Roof Designers The beaches and proximity to the Atlantic Ocean are some of the advantages of living in Florida. However, the extreme wind forces from hurricanes can easily damage even the strongest buildings and cause billions of dollars in property loss. As a result, certain areas of Florida―Miami-Dade and Broward Counties—have been designated High Velocity Hurricane Zones. The building products used in these zones must be laboratory tested to meet extreme wind and pressure performance standards. This course explains why a metal roof system designed to minimize the damage from hurricanes is important. Standing Seam Metal Roofing: Prepainted Architectural and Structural Panel Systems A metal roof combines performance and aesthetics to give commercial and residential buildings strength, longevity, and character. This course examines the features and benefits of standing seam metal roofing and explains the factors to consider when selecting a project-specific metal roofing system.

Why Metal Roofs are Sustainable Metal roof systems have long been popular with architects for their aesthetics and long-term performance characteristics, particularly their low maintenance costs and durability. But now, with the concept of sustainability so widely embraced by the architectural community, metal roofs are being seen in a new light. Metal roofs’ long life, high recycled content, total recyclability, and energy efficiency allow “cool metal roofs” to play a pivotal and vital role in creating the condition under which “humans and nature can exist in productive harmony to support present and future generations.” Metal roofing products last longer than conventional ones and are 100 percent recyclable. In contrast to conventional roofing products, there’s no need to replace a product that needs large amounts of petroleum and large areas of landfills to get rid of it.

Metal roofs offer architects and builders greater variety than tile roofs and can be installed all over the country regardless of the climate in the region. A metal roof will perform better than a tile roof in harsh environments that produce cold winters. More importantly, and will not need replacing for sixty years or more.
