The Section reference of a Zed Profile 342mm deep

and 3.2mm thick = 342 Z 32 The first 3 digits of

the section reference indicate the depth of the section

in millimetres (ie 342 equals 342mm deep).

The fourth digit is a letter that signifies the profile

type (ie Z for Zed Profile). The last two digits indicate

the material thickness (ie 32 equals 3.2mm).

SLEEVES

The sleeve reference is the same as the Purlin it is

being used in conjunction with, except that it is

prefixed with an ‘S’ for a standard sleeve and ‘HS’

for a heavy end bay sleeve

ie PS 342 Z 32 - Standard 342 Z 32 sleeve.

HEBS 342 Z 32 - Heavy End Bay 342 Z 32 sleeve.

Zed Butt Purlin SystemSingle/Odd Bays Layout & DetailingRoof purlins – Zed Profile Butt System suitable forbuildings with single bays or more, up to andincluding 25° roof pitch.

The Butt System offers a simple cleat connection and is

intended for smaller buildings, short or uneven span or

light loading conditions.

The butt system caters for spans up to 12m depending

on the load to be applied and where the cladding or

liner tray offers adequate lateral support by virtue of its

fixing, ie fixed according to the cladding manufacturer’s

instructions.

This system can cater for single bays,

therefore can be used in conjunction

with other systems detailed in this

brochure,or as a system in its

own right.

Double Span System

End bay purlins are single span, with double span purlins

on internal bays.

The maximum span between rafters is 7.5m therefore

maximum double span length is 15m. Consideration must

be given to the handling of longer lengths.

A sleeve must always occur at a joint position.

Single Span System

Single span lengths can be supplied to suit individual

requirements.

Penultimate rafter connections are sleeved with a

Roof purlins for buildings with 5 bays or more, up to and including 25° roof pitch.

The Heavy End Bay System invariably provides the most

economic solution by utilising the benefits of the sleeved

system but further maximising this by the use of

lighter gauge purlins on internal bays.

This system caters for spans up to 15 metres depending

on the load to be applied and where the cladding or

liner tray offers adequate lateral

support by virtue of its fixing,

i.e. fixed according to the cladding

manufacturer’s instructions.

To enable purlin and sleeve

to nest together the sleeve

is inverted.

Purlin & Sleeve Arrangement

End bay purlins (ie P1 & P1X) and penultimate rafter

sleeves are of the same heavier gauge, whilst

inner bay purlins (ie P2, P3, P5, P5X, P6, P6X) and

sleeves are of the same lighter gauge. A sleeve must

always occur at a joint position.

Computer controlledproduction techniquesapply the client’s individualmark numbers to all purlinsautomatically during themanufacturing process.

Bolted Apex TieRound Lok Apex Tie

Metsec Round lok anti-sag rods and lateral support

angles are designed to restrain purlins against twist

under wind uplift conditions and contribute support

during sheeting.

Round lok anti-sag rods are used for 142, 172, 202, 232

and 262 series and 45 x 45 x 2mm thick lateral support

angles for 302 and 342 series. On roof pitches over

25°, purlin spacings over 2.4m or heavy cladding

applications,the lateral support angles must be used on

all sections.

When no anti-sag rods are used, temporary spacer

bars and propping may be required during the

sheeting of the roof.

For roof pitches greater than 25°use the MetSPEC

computer design program to determine section and

bracing requirements.

Whenever round lok anti-sag rods are used the eaves

brace should be included as indicated in the drawing

and the rows made continuous over the apex.

The bolted apex strut detail is adopted when using

non-restraining cladding, 302 and 342 series purlins

or roof pitches over 25°.

In all other cases where an anti-sag system is required,

Metsec tubular sag rods and apex ties are used.

All eaves braces are manufactured from

45 x 45 x 2.0mm galvanised angle.

Wind up lift tables from P54 give the minimumSag Rod requirements for the various systems.

However it is recommended that whateverthe wind loading the maximum span withoutAnti-Sag rods should be as shown in thetables opposite.

1. For roof slopes less than 20m in length diagonal

tie wires can be omitted. Where no anti-sag rods are

required for wind uplift, for stability during erection

and cladding we recommend the inclusion of an

eaves strut and apex tie. Temporary spacer bars and

propping may also be required.

2. The details shown on this page assume that

adequate restraint to the purlins is provided by the

cladding or liner tray screw fixed at 600mm

maximum spacings to the purlins. Additional screws

may be necessary to zones of high local wind loads

such as eaves and verges.

NB. An Eaves strut may also be required to suit the

design of the Metsec Eaves Beam.

Non Restraining CladdingWhen using cladding which is not

fixed in accordance with Note 2 on

page 15 it is necessary to provide

permanent lateral restraint to the

purlins. The MetSPEC purlin design

Software will provide a comprehensive

design solution to any non restraining

cladding application.

NB:- Bolted apex struts and 45mm x

45mm lateral support angles must be

used throughout.

Steep Slopes >25˚ PitchThe sheeting and fixings are deemed

adequate in carrying the component of

load in the plane of the roof slope on

pitches up to 25 degrees. For roof

pitches greater than 25̊ the purlins are

designed for the downslope roof loads. The MetSPEC

purlin design software will quickly determine the

purlin section and bracing requirements for any

application.

NB:- Bolted apex struts and 45mm x 45mm lateral

support angles must be used throughout in lieu of

round lok anti-sag rods.

thus avoiding the use of diagonal tie wires.

StabilityWith cantilevers it is recommended that the ends are

braced together to provide stability and prevent rotation.

Various details are used for this purpose with a typical

example shown below.

A cleader angle fixed to the top and the bottom of

the purlin will offer sufficient restraint as well as

providing a base for fixing the sheeting and flashing.

Cleader angles should be positively fixed across the

apex to prevent down slope movement.

Mono Pitched Roofs and roof slopes exceeding 25°Diagonal Tie Wire systems to be included. Alternatively,

a suitable fixing to a structural member must be included

at the top of the slope to resist down slope movement.

Diagonal tie wires must be fixed back to the bottom holes

in the purlin cleat.

Note:-For other specialist cases or heavier cladding systems

(i.e. tiles and battens) consult our design office.

Cleader Angle

When it is required to provide a canopy by

cantilevering the purlins over the gable, simple rules

are given below to enable the engineer to meet

these requirements.

PerformanceIn the approach given it is assumed the sections are

installed in one continuous length i.e. backing span

and overhang and that the sheeting offers full lateral

restraint to the section.

Deflection CriteriaPurlins selected from this Technical Manual obey a

deflection criteria of SPAN /180 for conventional steel

decking.

The end deflection of a cantilever should be compatible

with this and we recommend the cantilever should

not exceed 28% of the backing span, to meet this

requirement.

Metsec Cleader Angles are manufactured from

pre-hot dipped galvanised steel angle. They are used

to provide a sheeting face for cladding along gable

rafters or at roof hip intersections.

Two sizes of cleader angle are available:

45 x 45 x 2mm thick = 1.37 kg/m

100 x 100 x 2mm thick = 3.17 kg/m

Maximum length = 7.5m

We suggest that the 45 x 45 x 2mm cleader angle

is used on purlin centres up to and including 1.8m.

Above this 100 x 100 x 2mm cleader angle should

be used.

The details show cleader spanning over two purlin

spacings, however multiple spacings can be readily

accommodated. Providing the thickness of the cleader

angle (2.0mm) does not present any problems a

simple overlap can be used. The overall length would

therefore be the purlin centres plus 28mm each end.

The cleader angle can be fitted to either the top or

bottom purlin flange to suit the required detail.

Where possible the standard sleeve fixing holes may be

used for rafter stay fixings, providing the inclination of the

stay is not too steep.

Rafter stays supplied by Metsec are normally

45 x 45 x 2mm thick angle. On deep sections or lattice

trusses, it may be necessary to increase the size of the angle

section used to suit the individual contract requirements.

Where the supporting steelwork is constructed using

deep universal beam sections, lattice trusses, etc.,

rafter stay fixing holes can be added to suit individual

requirements (ideally to suit angle of rafter stay 45o).

Double Span Layout

This arrangement can be

used where stringent

deflection limits are applied.

i.e. glazing supports,

brickwork restraints etc.

Maximum Span

The maximum double span

section length is 15m,

therefore the maximum

column centres are 7.5m.

These details are to be used for conditions wherea double span gives an advantage over single spani.e. deflection governing.

Typical application: Wall and brickwork restraints,

window cill or header rails where deflection due to

horizontal wind is to be limited to a specific deflection

ratio. eg brickwork restraint commonly limited to a

ratio of , as shown in the load tables. If a deflection

limit greater than is required, then calculate the

capacity for this by multiplying the capacity given in

the table by

e.g. Required capacity for = x

It is not permissible to use this method to calculate

capacities for deflection limits less than span/300.

For brickwork restraints it is assumed that the wall will

support the C-Rail on the weak axis.

For cases where the wall will not be built until after the

rail erection or where the wall is not to be built up so

that it supports both the inner and outer flanges of the

C-Section on the Y axis, the Metsec side rail support

and diagonal tie systems are required.

It is assumed in all cases that a cladding system is

securely fixed to the rail to stabilise the outer flange.

For window cill support rails where the weight of the

window is to be supported by the rail, see the side rail

support system for this condition, shown on P44.

Side Rails Zed Profile Sleeved System. For building with 2 bays or more.

The sleeved System optimises the use of steel by

incorporating sleeves at the penultimate rafter with a

staggered sleeving arrangement on internal bays.

The sleeved system caters for spans up to 15m

depending on the load to be applied and where the

cladding or liner tray offers adequate support by

virtue of its fixing, i.e. fixed according to the cladding

manufacturer’s instructions.

To enable the side rail and sleeve to nest together the

sleeve is inverted.

Metsec diagonal tie wires provide significant benefits

in terms of both drawing office detailing and site

erection time. They are delivered fully assembled to

avoid the possibility of lost items on site. The assembly is

protected by galvanising and is provided with adjustable

ends for easy erection. To enable length of diagonal tie

wire to be determined, the depth between rails (B) and

the distance between rail holes (A) must be given.

Metsec will ensure the correct length is supplied.

In order to achieve the alignment tolerances asssociated

with some horizontal cladding systems it is recommended

that C-Section side rails are used in conjunction with

Horizontal Cladding Support (HCS) or Panel Joint Rail

(PJR) as vertical supports.

The maximum spacing of vertical supports to horizontal

panels is shown and is necessary to provide adequate

restraint to the rails. If this cannot be achieved then

please refer to Metsec for advice.

Sequence of erection of the side rails, side rail supports

and diagonal tie restraints similar to the

recommendations shown on pages 33 to 35 inclusive.

For economy it is recommended that Metsec Horizontal

Cladding Support (HCS) with riveted end cleats are

used as vertical supports to the horizontal cladding

panels.

Joints in panels may require a wider flange for fixing

purposes which can be provided by using a Metsec

Panel Joint Rail (PJR).

Alignment of the steel face can easily be achieved by

adjustment of the horizontal rails on slotted cleats at

stanchion positions.

Metsec have carried out comprehensive testing at

Strathclyde University to verify the adequacy of this

type of support without slip under the required load.

See page 38 for test results.

Tighter tolerances are associated with some of the

horizontal cladding systems in today’s market.

These tolerances can be achieved by using Metsec

C-Section rails supported on cleats with slotted holes.

Metsec have carried out comprehensive testing at

Strathclyde University to support the use of slotted

cleats without slip under the required loads.

The recommended torque on a Grade 8.8 bolt is 244Nm.

The results of these tests are shown in the table below

and are applicable to Metsec components.

Parapet Posts can be

constructed from back

to back C-Sections to

form a compound

member complete with

all cleats.

Supplied as single

components for on-site

assembly before lifting

into position. C-Section

compound parapet

posts offer significant

cost savings against

conventional hot rolled

steelwork.

Parapet posts are fixed

directly to the columns,

with 8mm stand off

packs to maintain the

sheeting line.

All necessary sheeting

rails can be connected

to the parapet post by

using standard inset

rail cleats fitted to the

compound section prior

to lifting into position.

For further guidance

on the use and

applications of

C-Section parapet posts

Used in conjunction with C-Section side rails, C-Section

window trimmers provide the necessary surface fixings

for windows, claddings and associated flashings.

The window trimmer should ideally be of the same

depth as the main supporting rail and be connected

using standard trimmer cleats. Counterformed holes

provide the necessary unobstructed fixing surface.

Metsec Zed & C-Section Side Rail Systems combined

with the appropriate fire resistance wall cladding system

have performed satisfactorily in fire tests up to 4 hours

duration. The period of fire resistance is dependant

upon the construction and materials used in the fire

wall cladding, therefore certification for the fire

resistance period should be obtained from the cladding

supplier. Accessories and column stays need no facility

for expansion and are supplied as standard items.

In isolation, the Eaves beam is part of the roof system

and therefore need not be fire protected, however, if the

rail system is suspended from this beam then it forms

part of the rail system and requires fire protection.

The end bay, grids (5) to (6) is designed as a butt

system keeping the depth of section similar to the rest

but increasing the gauge to maintain rail centres.

The philosophy of rail expansion under fire, is that

with the sleeved system the rail is locked at the sleeved

position and expansion occurs to the left and to the

right of this connection into the slotted position and

expansion occurs to the left and to the right of this

connection into the slotted cleats. Whereas with the

butt system one side is locked and the free end is

allowed to expand into the slotted cleat.

Utilising the standard slotted cleat detail, the rail length

for both systems equates to the distance of column to

column less 35mm. When cleating, clearance between

ends of rails should be increased to allow for expansion

of the corresponding system, as shown.

Under fire conditions the rails expand. To achieve the

necessary movement the column fixing cleat should be

slotted longitudinally. All fixing bolts should be fitted with

combustible washers which collapse under heat, thus

loosening the bolts and allowing expansion. This reduces

distortion and buckling of the rail, ensuring integrity of the

wall construction.

The diagrams illustrate an odd bay arrangement

of rails for a fire wall. Grids (1) to (5) are designed as

sleeved systems with the sleeves and standard cleats

positioned on the same column lines, simplifying detailing

and keeping one type of cleat on each column. The slotted

cleats are positioned at alternate columns.

with BS 5950 Part 5.

Compound back to back ‘C’ Sections are

used for these members as shown.

To make compound, the sections are

connected together in the web with pairs of

bolts (washer under bolt head and nut) at

spacings along the sections as stated in

the program with all bolts on standard web

gauge lines.

The post must be adequately fixed to the

main structure at the top and bottom to

The fabricator should ensure that the end

bracket supporting the sections is suitable

for the load to be carried. Restraint stays

may be required, the spacings of these is as

determined by the ‘MetSPEC’ Software.

All fixing bolts are to be M16 Grade 8.8

plated bolts complete with washers.

N.B. Maximum capacity is achieved using

a washer under both bolt head and nut for

connection of the sections to the supports

at ends, the Software allows for a choice

of one or two washers per nut/bolt

combination.

Tension Members may be single or back to back C-Sections

Metsec C-Sections can be used for applications where

axial tension or compression loads are to be carried,

The MetSPEC Design Software can be used to select

these sections.

Capacities have been derived by calculation in

accordance with BS 5950 part 5.

The capacities are for axial compression or tension

loads only and do not take into account bending

moments other than those due to self weight or end

connection eccentricity, (i.e. gutters etc to be supported

on other members). Connection of sections to support

brackets at the ends must be via the web.

Back to back compound C-Sections are used for all

compression loads. Compound sections are connected

with pairs of bolts (washer under bolt head and nut)

on standard web gauge lines equally spaced as

determined by the MetSPEC Software.

Tension load capacities are for single or back to back

members all connected at ends to supports via the web.

The fabricator should ensure that the gusset or end

bracket supporting the sections is suitable for the load

carried. All fixing bolts are to be M16 grade 8.8 plated

bolts complete with washers.

NB:- Maximum capacity is achieved with a washer

under both nut and bolt head, a reduction in capacity

is involved if only one washer is used. End connection

bolts to support brackets are in pairs on standard web

gauge lines, the Software gives a choice of two or

four bolts.

There are many different types of services support clips

available in today’s market. When fixing either to Zed

profile or C profile sections, the most common types and

application are shown in the diagrams.

The maximum recommended safe working loads given

in the table below are intended for guidance only. They

are for roof pitches less than 12o and will be conservative

for some of the more innovative or heavy duty clips

available. Please refer to the clip manufacturer for

advice.

NB Beware of published clip load capacities as these

may be for the clip only. Unacceptable movement of the

purlin flange particularly on steep slopes may cause slip

or failure of the fixings.

An equivalent service load used for the design of the

purlins may be calculated as follows:-

Point loads from services = 25kg at 1.2m spacing

Purlin centres = 1.8m

Equivalent service load = 25 x 9.81 x 10-3= 0.114kN/m2

1.2 x 1.8

By using a Metstrut channel fixed between purlin lines,

loads can be evenly distributed as shown in detail D.

C-Section Trimming DetailUsing standard gauge line holes, a channel or angle

trimmer can be fitted and used to carry heavier or large

pieces of equipment as shown in detail E.

An allowance should be made when selecting sections

from the design load tables if services are to be hung

from the purlins, either as a uniformly distributed load

for a small service load or a point load if the load is of a

large magnitude. Our engineers are available to advise

on purlin selection for unusual cases.
