⇒ Faster Occupancy Since the entire structure is bolted together in the field, erection time is reduced.
⇒ Cost Efficiency Less construction trades are generally required to erect metal building systems
and faster erection means less labor costs. Each structural member is designed
for a near total efficiency, minimizing wasted material.
⇒ Flexibility of Expansion Metal building systems are custom-engineered to each specific project’s
requirements. Buildings can easily be expanded in the future.
⇒ Low Maintenance Modern metal finishes offer a superb resistance against corrosion, fading and
discolouration.
⇒ Thermal Efficiency Metal building systems accommodate high thermal efficiency requirements and
are designed to meet the most stringent energy guidelines.
⇒ Outstanding Performance Documented studies show that metal building systems have demonstrated better
structural performance under severe weather conditions (hurricanes,
earthquakes) versus other forms of construction.

PRODUCT REFERENCE MANUAL Page Number: 2.2.1
Section: 2 WIDESPAN STRUCTURAL SYSTEM Revision Date: -
1. INTERMEDIATE FRAMES
Widespan intermediate frames consist of two or more columns spanned by roof beams. The
intermediate frames support the roof structural members (purlins) and the wall structural
members (girts). The exterior columns, and roof beams, are normally tapered “I” sections.
2. ENDWALL FRAMES
Endwall frames are usually lighter than the intermediate frames. On LRF, MRF and WX
buildings, a simple beam and post endwall frame is normally used, except where future
extension to building length is anticipated.
3. GIRTS
Widespan wall structural members are called girts. Girts transfer wind loads directly to the
columns and support the wall panels. Widespan girts are cold formed “Z”-shaped members, 165
mm, 200 mm or 250 mm deep, and are of various thickness depending on the design
requirements. The inside flange of the girts is attached to sidewall columns and endwall posts.
PRODUCT REFERENCE MANUAL Page Number: 2.2.2
Section: 2 WIDESPAN STRUCTURAL SYSTEM Revision Date: -
Wall panels are attached to the outside flange of the girts. The outside flange of girts also defines
the endwall and sidewall structural lines. Girt spacing varies with the building height, the wall
panel profile and design requirements.
4. PURLINS
Widespan roof structural members are called purlins and are located on top of the roof beams.
Purlins span the bay length and support the roof panels. Purlins are “Z”-shaped cold rolled
sections and are 200 mm, 250 mm, 300 mm, or 350 mm deep and are of varying thicknesses
depending on the design requirements. Continuous purlins are overlapped at supports and offer
economies due to design advantages when used to span three or more bays. Purlins are also
available as simple spans, which act as independent members between two intermediate frames
or between an intermediate frame and an endwall frame.

BRACING
Bracing systems transfer wind loads from endwalls and sidewalls to the foundation. Wind bracing
systems include two types:
1) Longitudinal bracing, for wind on the building endwall.
2) Transverse bracing, for wind on the building sidewall.
Illustrated below is the standard method for providing wind bracing. Longitudinal bracing (for
endwall wind load) is provided by brace rods between two intermediate frames in one or more bays.
Transverse bracing (for sidewall wind load) is provided by the flexural stiffness of the intermediate
frames and by brace rods in the two outer sections of each endwall when a beam and post endwall is
used.
PRODUCT REFERENCE MANUAL Page Number: 2.7.2
Section: 2 WIDESPAN STRUCTURAL SYSTEM Revision Date: -
1) Bracing is generally installed in the second bay from the endwall. If bracing must be installed
in the end bay a Rigid Frame endwall may be required.
2) All buildings up to 42 metres wide and 1 through 6 bays long, are braced in 1 bay only.
Buildings over 42 m wide may have 2 braced bays.
3) All buildings 7 bays and longer, are braced in the second bay from each endwall and may
require additional intermediate bracing.
4) Insulated buildings using overlapped purlins, which are more than 180 metres long, must be
given special consideration to allow for longitudinal expansion and contraction of the
structure.
5) Erection bracing is not generally furnished. Only bracing required for structural stability, as
outlined in 1 through 4 is supplied.
6) Where access is required in the braced bay, sidewall bracing can be moved to an adjacent
bay. In certain cases, this may require the addition of box struts.
7) As an alternative, sidewall cross bracing may be replaced by portal frames, or in smaller
buildings by fixed base bracing posts.
Canopies and Width Extensions must have their own bracing systems. Bracing should preferably be
located in the same bays as the main building bracing.
Length Extensions
Building length extensions to existing LRF and MRF buildings should be braced as if the extension
is a separate building, with the exception of one bay extensions. One bay extensions will be
furnished as an end bay.

Standard Lindab Butler wall panels and wall structural components are designed such that the
weight of wall panel is supported on the base angle at the foundation edge. Where wall panels do not
attach to the foundation edge via a base angle, compensation must be made to transmit the weight of
the wall panels and the effects of wind on the wall panel to the foundation.The most common
occurrence of this detail is a Dado wall where there is no wall cladding below the first girt. When
this occurs, steps must be taken to compensate elsewhere in the construction for:
1) The vertical support of the wall panels.
2) Restraint of the first girt against inward and outward deflection caused by wind pressure and
suction.
3) Restraint of the first girt against rotation due to wind.
Note: Failure to make allowances for the above can result in damage to brickwork, insulation board or wall panels.

in this manual and may be requested from Lindab Butler Building Systems.
Pre – punched web and lower flange holes are provided for all standard purlin and girt to structure,
secondary to secondary members and flange brace to secondary members connections.
Additional holes are pre-punched for MR-24® roof system, when there is no insulation spacer
system installed. Holes in upper flanges, for roof panel attachment will be at 75 mm centres on bays
which have lengths which are divisible by 75 mm. Purlins for bays which are not divisible by 75
mm will be supplied unpunched. Purlins are also available without holes in upper flanges as a
standard offering. On overlapped purlins, the roof panel attachment holes are positioned so that in
the purlin overlap, the holes within the lap are in line. This is achieved by slightly staggering the
line of holes from member to member. On the wider flanges these holes are 32 mm from the web
and on narrower flanges the holes are 30 mm from the web.

Because the foundation design is unique for each building design and location, Lindab Butler does
not assume the responsibility for the design, materials or workmanship of the foundation.
Anchor bolt layout drawings prepared by Lindab Butler are intended to show only location, diameter
and projection of anchor bolts required to attach the Lindab Butler building system to the
foundation. Lindab Butler will provide the loads imposed by the building on the foundation. It is the
responsibility of the Lindab Butler Builder to ensure that adequate provisions are made for
specifying bolt embedment, bearing angles, tie rods, and other associated items embedded in the
concrete foundation, as well as the foundation design for the loads imposed by the Lindab Butler
building system, other imposed loads, and the bearing capacity of the soil and other conditions of the
building site. Lindab Butler does not provide anchor bolts, nuts or washers. This is the responsibility
of the Lindab Butler Builder.
Notes:
The following information or guidelines are offered to ensure proper erection and performance of
the Lindab Butler building system:
1) Give top of foundation a trowel finish. The foundation must be square, level, and smooth.
2) Anchor bolts must be located by means of a template. DO NOT hand set anchor bolts.
3) Anchor bolts must be hard set into the foundation, Lindab Butler does not recommend the
use of flexible cones.
4) Foundation design, anchor bolts, nuts, and washers are not supplied by Lindab Butler.
Anchor bolt
embedment length and reinforcing steel required to provide for all reactions must be
designed by a qualified foundation design engineer.
5) Caution: Rigid frames have both horizontal and vertical reactions acting at the base of the
columns. Failure to make adequate provisions for all reactions can result in foundation
failure.
6) Specific Anchor Bolt Layouts prepared by Lindab Butler include General Notes which
must be adhered to by the designer of the foundations.

For most standard applications the edge of the foundation will be the Structural Line i.e., the exterior
face of the wall structural members, the only exceptions being with horizontal composite wall panels
which, due to having vertical support sections fixed to the wall structural members, require the
foundation edge to be extended a further 50 mm past the structural line. Also the Firewall condition
with trapezoidal panels requires the foundation edge to be extended a further 120 mm, for England
and Wales, or 140 mm for Scotland. These details are not obligatory for the rest of Europe, but,
strongly recommended to avoid cold bridging at the wall panel base.

The built up MR-24® roof system is a field assembled double skin roof system based on a MR-24®
standing seam outer panel with a roll-formed internal Liner Panel. The panels are separated by the
Lindab Bridge System allowing the cavity to be filled with glassfibre insulation.
When installed, the MR-24® forms a "floating" roof i.e. one that acts independently of the roof
structural components. In place, it forms a weather-tight roof system, which allows for thermal
expansion and contraction. There are no fasteners that pierce the panel membrane except at the
eave and ridge closures. The panels are jointed together with a double lock-seam and connected to
the structure with a unique clip formed into the seam.
The MR-24® Roof plus Liner Panel system has been designed to provide regulatory compliance
with U-values, thermal bridging, air leakage and insulation continuity to the approved standard
suitable for the intended use of the building.

The maximum standard panel length is 13.5 m. Longer lengths can be supplied through special
transport arrangements.
MR-24® Panels are factory pre-punched to match the pre-punched holes in the eave structural
member. Panel end splices are factory pre-punched and pre-notched for ease of installation.
Panel end splices must not be fixed to the structure in order to allow the roof to expand and
contract.
Roof Runner
The panel is secured to the roof structure with a galvanised clip incorporating interlocked stainless
steel sliding clip tabs. The clips are fastened to the structure with scrubolts and the clip tabs are
seamed into position allowing the tabs movement within the clip, thus permitting expansion and
contraction of the roof system.
FACTORY INSTALLED
SEALANT
Stainless steel scrubolts are used to anchor the panel securely to the eave member, thus forcing all
expansion and contraction to occur towards the ridge. Fasteners that pierce the weather membrane
occur only at the eave member and ridge panel closure.
PRODUCT REFERENCE MANUAL Page Number: 5.3.4
Section:5 ROOF SYSTEMS Revision Date: -
Because of the higher rate of expansion and contraction for aluminium roof panels, a review of the
expansion and contraction potential will be made on all standard buildings in excess of 60 m wide
and on special applications where the run of panels (single slope) exceeds 30 m.
Provision for thermal expansion movement of the MR-24® roof system panel is accomplished by
the use of clips with movable factory centred, stainless steel tabs, to assure full movement in either
direction. A force of no more than 3 kilograms will be required to initiate tab movement. Each clip
shall accommodate a minimum of 30 mm thermal movement in either direction.
The roof shall provide for thermal expansion/contraction without detrimental effect to the roof panel
when there is a ±55°C temperature difference between the inside of the building and the temperature
of the roof panels.

Energy Conservation
Purlins shall be insulated so as to minimise "thermal short circuit" between purlin and roof panel.
The heat loss (thermal short circuit) caused by compression of the blanket insulation between
structure and panel is minimised by the use of a spacer block or Lindab Bridge System at each
purlin location.
PRODUCT REFERENCE MANUAL Page Number: 5.4.1
Section: 5 ROOF SYSTEMS Revision Date: -
Building Length
No special roof expansion provisions are normally required. Slots in the ridge parts and the
corrugation in the panels usually provide adequate movement for thermal expansion.
If there is a structural expansion joint in the building framing in the building length direction (i.e.
double frame, slotted purlin, etc.) a roof panel expansion joint must be built into the roof at the same
location.
Roof Slope
The MR-24® roof system is specifically designed for a minimum 1° roof slope.
For roof slopes between 1° and 5°, colour coated steel panels are not recommended due to the
potential for water ponding on roofs.
For steep slopes there are no particular MR-24® panel seaming or Roof Runner seaming machine
limitations.
Panel Length
Generally MR-24® panels will be provided up to a maximum length of 13.5 m to comply with site
Health and Safety regulations and safe working practices. Longer panels are available, however
special shipping arrangements and erection methods must be considered.
Liner panels will be supplied a maximum length of 4.7 m due to handling restrictions.
Length tolerance is +3 mm for all panels.
Panels will be a minimum of 1.5 m long due to manufacturing limits. Single span panels are not
recommended.
Material Thickness
The maximum material thickness that can be seamed is 0.9 mm in aluminium and 0.75 mm in steel.
Panel Overhang
The maximum length of unsupported panel is 225 mm.
Small Buildings.
Buildings with a maximum roof slope of 1.5° and 12 m wide or less, including any overhang, do not
require an expansion joint at the ridge (i.e. ridge cap is omitted, the panel curves over the ridge).
High Humidity
Building with medium to high relative humidity, i.e. above 30%, and an outside temperature of 0°C,
the use of a vapour barrier is recommended, placed on the upper side of the Liner panel.
When interior building conditions are to be controlled at or near 50% relative humidity, we
recommend a careful review by the architect and heating contractor.

Industrial Buildings
Illumination requirements in a factory depend upon the work undertaken. As lighting requirements
can vary considerably between different operational zones, it is recommended that the primary
design requirement should be to provide a pleasant visual environment.
Where higher local levels of illumination are required to complete certain detailed tasks,
supplementary artificial lighting over these zones should be considered.
Excessive areas of "clear" glazing which can contribute to glare, solar heat input and heat loss
should be avoided.
Daylight factors in factories should be between 5% and 7%. In storage buildings where illumination
levels need only be sufficient to operate mechanical handling equipment or read consignee
addresses, this factor can be reduced to between 2% and 3%.
Recreational Buildings
Illumination requirements for recreation buildings such as sports halls and swimming pools are far
more demanding, since 'all round' vision is required to play fast moving ball games. Glare, either
from direct or reflected light and variation in brightness between adjoining surfaces is unacceptable.
The internal daylight factor should be approximately 10%.
To determine the area of LITE*PANL to meet these requirements, refer to Tables 1 & 2 below:

Scope of Application
MR-24® Standing Seam Roof System:
The curb contains two parts; a frame connecting to the MR-24® standing seam roof and the
curb of the skydome, which has been specially developed to fit the connecting frame.
The skydome is available with various opening mechanizms.
The installation of the skydome can be
started after having finished the
installation of the roof sheets.
The roof opening should be cut out, and
the “L” profiled supporting frame (header)
should be installed from below. Two
sealing strips supplied with the skydome
should be put into the flute at the bottom
side of the connecting frame. After this,
the connecting frame should be put onto
Connecting frame roof opening. The “L” profiled header and
the connecting frame should be screwed
tightly together.
On the inner side of the roof, the thermal
insulation can be folded and hidden under
the header.
The skydome can easily be fixed onto the
connecting frame with the screws
supplied. Insulation and weather tightness
are assured by sealing strips.
Description
The connecting frame and curb of the skydome is made of double polyester with glass fibre
reinforcement. They are stiffened by pressed board, and insulated with polyurethane foam;
K = 1.5 W/m2°C
The dome is available in:
- Double - Skin, translucent polyester, or
- Double - Skin, cellular, opal polycarbonate
Activating Mechanisms
MR-24® PRV type smoke and heat evacuation skydome is available with two activating
mechanisms options.
1) Pneumatic Cylinder
The emergency opening system is activated by CO2 cartridges. When the cartridge is pierced
the pressure pushes the piston and opens immediately the equipment. The skydome can be
closed by a remote control system.
An automatic activation is possible by a thermal fuse installed on the curb of the roof light.
The thermal fuse can be calibrated from 68°C to 90°C.
2) Gas Telescopes
With this option an electromagnetic or
pneumatic lock keeps the skydome in the
closed position. The lock can be released by
a electric impulse (24 V or 220V) or by CO2
and the gas telescopes will immediately open
the skydome.
The lock is completed by a thermal fuse
calibrated to 70 °C, that - in case of fire -
releases automatically the lock and opens the
skydome. Electromagnetic lock in closed position
Note: When activating the system with gas telescopes, skydomes should be closed manually from the roof. Daily
ventilation is not possible with this system.

Scope of Application:
Roof Systems covered by LTP 38 trapezoidal panel:
Insulation is very simple if the curbs are installed at the same time as the LTP 38 roof panels.
The upper part of the curb underlaps and lower part overlaps the LTP 38 panels. This method of
installation ensures that the skydome is watertight.
Installation of the curbs after completion of the roof cladding is much more difficult. The roof
openings will have to be field cut, consequently watertight lapping of the curb with the roof panels
can be difficult.
Standard dimensions of the skydome have been designed to suit standard purlin spacings and
insulation widths.
Description
The curb is made of double skin polyester with glass fibre reinforcement. The horizontal part of the
curb matches the profile of the LTP 38 roof panel. The curb is stiffened by pressed board, and
insulated with polyurethane foam (K = 1.5 W/m2°C).
Spoilers
The smoke and heat evacuation skydome can be equipped with spoilers on request.
The Dome is made from Double-Skin acrylic glass (PMMA), the outer skin is opaque, the inner
skin is transparent.

Design Procedure
1) Standard Metal Surface Mounted Roof Curbs are available in two standard nominal sizes:
a. 900 mm x 900 mm
b. 1100 mm x 1100 mm
The maximum loads which can be applied to these curbs are 300 kg and 400 kg respectively.
2) Loads in excess of the above must be structurally supported by the roof purlins and therefore
provision must be made in the design of the structure to accommodate the additional load.
3) Sufficient clearance must be allowed for the expansion movement of the roof so that ducting
or piping, which passes through the curb will not be damaged by this movement.
4) Curbs should not be placed closer than 2 purlin spaces from the eave or 2 purlins spaces
from the ridge without steps being taken to support the short roof panel against distortion
due to roof traffic or heavy loads.
Specification
Roof Curbs are manufactured from 2 mm thick mill finish aluminium.
The cross section of the curb is Z shaped to enable the roof panel fasteners to be concealed.
All joints are factory welded.
The bottom of the curb is shaped to enable the curb to fit over the panel corrugations at the
downslope end.
A separate water draining system and snow plough must be fitted on the upslope side of the curb.
Curbs are designed for specific locations along the roof, that are on 300 or 600 mm modules .
Curbs are designed to permit the free drainage of water past the curb.
Trim is provided to fit the insulation.

PIPE FLASHING
Weatherproof units for pipe penetrations through roofs.
Pipe flashings are designed to sit perpendicular to the roof slope, the resilient flexible sleeve
provides a watertight seal around pipes and flues which penetrate the roof.
Pipe flashings are a one piece flexible moulded black rubber unit manufactured from EPDM
(Ethylene Propolene Diene Monomer) compounded with carbon blacks and other additions to give
maximum weatherability and resistance to ozone and ultra violet light. Bonded to the rubber flange
of the pipe flashing is a ductile aluminium reinforcing ring that easily bends to conform to the shape
of the roof profile.
The flexibility of the pleated rubber allows it to perform on all panel profiles and slopes up to 4:12.
The flexible material also allows for pipe movement due to expansion and contraction or vibration
while maintaining a weatherproof seal.
Pipe flashings are available for pipes up to 480 mm diameter and accommodate temperatures up to
+300° F.
High temperature pipe flashings are also available for temperatures up to 480°F. These units are
manufactured from silicone and are coloured red for identification.
Pipe flashings must be installed as per erection drawings provided by Lindab Butler.

To minimize the risk of damage to adjoining properties from a fire within a building, regulations
stipulate minimum requirements for the fire protection of building elements.
The regulations vary for each type of element, for example, walls, columns, and partitions. The
considerations regarding the amount of fire resistance required is also determined by factors such as
the size of the element, the end use of the building or the distance that the particular element of the
building is from the site boundary.
Firecheck-300 is designed to comply with building regulations for use in external walls, which are
non-loadbearing, and are located 1 m or more from the site boundary line.
The basic construction, as shown, has an exterior trapezoidal wall panel i.e. LVP 38, LVP 38R, or
LVP 45, a rockfibre blanket insulation, with a nominal density of 23 kg/m³, and a profiled metal
liner panel. The Lindab Bridge System provides structural support to the outer panel
The secondary wall structural members are connected to the main primary frames with slotted clips
and plastic washers. This allows adequate movement in the event of fire.
The assembly was tested at the Warrington Fire Research Centre in accordance with BS 476 : Part
22 :1987 and the following results were confirmed in a report issued 24th May 2003:

PRODUCT REFERENCE MANUAL Page Number: 9.1.1
Section: 9 WIDESPAN STRUCTURAL SYSTEM Revision Date: -
INTRODUCTION
The main purpose of thermal insulation in buildings is usually to reduce the rate at which heat is lost
through the structure from the inside to the outside. It is virtually impossible to stop the movement
of heat, about the best we can do is to slow down its movement.
Heat is lost from a building as a result of conduction through the structure, and through ventilation
or air change.
Apart from statutory requirements, a review of the benefits of insulation reveals that in both cold
and warm climates, whether heated or air conditioned or both, the insulated building is a sound
investment. The principle advantages of insulation are:
1) LOWER INITIAL EQUIPMENT COSTS for heating and air conditioning units.
2) LOWER OPERATING COSTS. Heating and air conditioning units carry less load, thereby
using less fuel and electricity. This is an annual saving, or an added cost without insulation,
for the life of the building.
6) PROVIDES SOUND CONTROL from rain, sleet and hail on the outside surfaces, while
soaking up noises generated on the inside of the building. This is particularly important in
buildings where offices are maintained, or which have a high degree of public usage.
7) INCREASES RESALE VALUE of the building because of the advantages listed above, and
because it gives a more finished appearance to the interior.
“U” VALUE
The Thermal Transmittance, or “U” Value, of a building element is calculated as the reciprocal of
the sum of the thermal resistances of its component parts and adjacent air layers, thus:
I
U= TOTAL AIR−TO−AIR RESISTANCE
The lower the U Value the better the insulating property.
The units of U are expressed in W/m2K(=W/m2°C)
PRODUCT REFERENCE MANUAL Page Number: 9.2.1
Section: 9 WIDESPAN STRUCTURAL SYSTEM Revision Date: -
CONDENSATION
Because warm air can hold more moisture than cold air, it becomes immediately apparent that if
warm air is cooled, it eventually reaches a temperature at which it is fully saturated and can hold no
more moisture, then, if cooled further, some of the moisture is squeezed out. This temperature is
called the DEW POINT temperature. The moisture squeezed out is CONDENSATION.
Condensation problems are not unique with metal buildings, they are common to all types of
construction. These problems can be eliminated or minimised by proper planning in advance of
construction. Once the building is constructed, control measures often become more difficult and
expensive.
Condensation Control
The first step in the control of condensation is to determine the moisture level that will exist in the
building. If the prospective owner does not know in advance what relative humidity ranges may
occur indoors during cold weather, or if tables of relative humidity ranges are not sufficient guides,
tests should be conducted in similar occupancies within the same climate area. Once the moisture
level has been determined, then several measures may be brought to bear upon the problem.
In a Lindab Butler building, condensation control measures fall into three categories:
1) The use of enough insulation to economically control the temperature inside the building
(not necessarily minimum).
2) The selection of a vapour barrier adequate for the humidity conditions to be encountered, to
prevent moisture from passing through the insulation and contacting the metal exterior wall
or roof.
3) Adequate ventilation to prevent excessive build up of relative humidity inside the building.
In choosing insulation thickness and densities, the best procedure to follow is to choose the most
economical insulation from a standpoint of heating costs over a period of time. If this is done, the
insulation will be efficient enough, as related to condensation, to do the job when used in
conjunction with other control measures.
High humidity conditions dictate the use of an extremely efficient vapour barrier. The efficiency of
a vapour barrier is indicated by its PERM rating (water vapour transmitted in grams per hour square
metre per millimetre of mercury). (VINYL FACINGS ARE RATHER POOR VAPOUR
BARRIERS AS COMPARED TO FOILS OR FOIL LAMINATES AND SHOULD BE AVOIDED
IN HIGH HUMIDITY CONDITIONS)
EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN DURING INSTALLATION TO SECURE A TIGHT
VAPOUR SEAL AT ALL JOINTS, TO PATCH ALL RIPS AND TEARS, AND TO MAKE
GOOD SEALS AROUND PIPES AND ACCESSORIES.
Ventilation
Careful attention should be given to the ventilation system in a metal building. The number of air
changes required per hour will depend on the end-use of the building. High humidity conditions
may dictate the need for either gravity or mechanical ventilation systems. Ventilation helps to
prevent condensation by removing warm moist air. This also removes heat from the building and
therefore provision must be made in the ventilating system to allow an equal amount of outside air
to enter the building.

Lindab Butler offers two types of glassfibre insulation, 1200 mm wide, with or without facing.
Because of the different densities, these materials have different resistances to compression. When
checking to ascertain the most appropriate fastener length, a good rule is to consider that 12kg

CONTOUR GUTTER
SL
The standard external Contour Gutter system and matching gable fascia profile provide both
function and architectural aesthetics.
Pre-formed corner pieces are supplied to match the gutter and gable profile.
Gutters are supported from the roof panels by mill finish aluminium hangers.
Contour Gutter is fabricated from hot dipped galvanised steel, coated with Polyester, Top Coat 50,
HPS200, or a PVF2 finish. Please refer to Lindab Butler standard colour range for colour options.
Rainfall intensity values and return periods are usually determined by the local Building Approval
Authorities. For example, the British Standard Code of Practice for Drainage of Roofs and Paved
Areas; BS 6367;1983 recommends that for external gutters, where occasional overflow is not likely
to occur into the building, a rainfall intensity of 75 mm / hour.

Note: Additional purlins may be required adjacent to the gutter due to snow accumulation in the valley area of the roof.
Design Criteria
Design requirements for interior gutters of multi-sloped buildings and gutters adjacent to a parapet
are important because inadequate roof drainage can detain water to the extent that structural or
content damage may result. Therefore it is recommended that overflow discharging facilities are
also provided at the ends of these gutters. The shape and size of the collector box is the primary
consideration with multi-slope and parapet gutters.
PRODUCT REFERENCE MANUAL Page Number: 11.4.1
Section:11 GUTTERS AND ROOF DRAINAGE Revision Date: -
Welded gutter joints are the standard recommended method of joining gutter sections.
All interior and parapet gutters will be provided with expansion joints at a spacing of approximately
60 metres. Checks must be made to ensure that in each section of gutter there are sufficient outlets
to drain a section.
Buildings greater than 180 metres long typically require an expansion joint in the steel structure.
Gutter expansion joints must also be located at building expansion joints.
Where interior or parapet gutters are used there must be provision for overflowing of the gutter in
the event dowpipes become blocked or when the volume of rainwater exceeds the capacity of the
rainwater system.
RAINWATER PIPES

100 Inside Dia
Downpipes are supplied in either UPVC, 110mm or 160mm diameter, or downpipes 120 mm
diameter, 0.6 mm thick plastisol coated HDG steel, or 100 mm x 70 mm cross section rectangular
metal downpipes, 0.6 mm thick polyester coated HDG steel.
Gutter outlets, wall clips and access pipes are supplied to suit specific requirements.
Drainage requirements are usually determined by local Building Approval Authority Regulations.
For example the requirements/recommendations of the appropriate Hungarian Standard MSZ
7941/1 are illustrated below:
Area of downpipe required (circular cross section), corresponding to the horizontal projection of the
water-collecting roof surface.
Area of downpipe required (rectangular cross section) corresponding to the horizontal projection of
the water-collecting roof surface.

ROOF OVERHANGS
The standard overhang length is 1.5 m on both eave and gable applications. Custom lengths are
available.
The width of the Sidewall overhang should be in multiples of the sidewall bay spacing. The Gable
Overhang is formed by cantilevering the roof purlins over the endwall frame.
Overhangs can be fully insulated if required, with all details designed to provide regulatory
compliance with U-values, thermal bridging, air leakage and insulation continuity to the approved
standard suitable for the intended use of the building. If soffit panel is required, this is normally
supplied as a light coloured low profile trapezoidal panel. Overhangs must be installed as per the
erection drawings provided by Lindab Butler.
