Panels shall be of the standing seam interlocking design and secured to the supports with a concealed structural fastening system. Panel manufacturer shall recommend fasteners for roof mounted photovoltaic system.

2. The concealed attachment system shall eliminate all through fasteners penetrations of the exposed roofing surface into the structural supports and allow the roof covering to move independently of any differential thermal movement by the framing system. Fasteners shall not be exposed on interior ceiling surface (shall not extend beyond original roof deck).

3. The panel-to-structural clip shall be designed to accommodate on inch of thermal movement in both expansion and contraction. The clip shall incorporate a self-centering feature to assure on inch of movement in both directions.

4. The standing seam panels shall have integral male and female interlocking ribs with a plant applied, non-hardening sealant, and the seams shall be continuously locked or crimped together by mechanical means during installation.

5. Roof panels shall flush horizontal and vertical surfaces, to facilitate sealing at the terminations. Panel configurations which create voids requiring supplemental closure devices shall not be considered acceptable.

6. Roof panels shall be fastened to the support framing members with a concealed clip or backing device of steel having a protective metallic coating. Through penetration of the roofing surface by exposed fasteners shall occur only for non-structural connections at panel termination and roof perimeter flashing locations. Such fasteners shall be corrosion resistant aluminum-zinc ally die cast head steel screws with weather seal washers.

7. Manufacturer shall apply a strippable plastic film to the panels for protection during fabrication.
