Double standing seam roofing

Double standing seam roofing is one of the most common metal roofing. The double standing seam roof consists of shares (metal sheets) with lateral upstands, which are double-interlocked with the adjacent upstand. This results in a fine-lined rebate height of 23 - 25 mm (at least 23 mm gem. VOB C DIN 18339). This design is permissible with appropriate sealants from a roof pitch of at least 3°. The substructure is usually a rear-ventilated wooden formwork with a separating layer. This type of covering is used in both traditional and modern architecture.
