NOTES:

#1 - Isolate all metal parts from ACQ treated wood or other galvanically incompatible material with appropriate membrane material.

#2 - Appliance attachments, such as lightning rods, signs, or antennae that penetrate the water seal, induce a galvanic reaction, or otherwise compromise the effectiveness of the roof edge system, shall be eliminated or isolated to prevent problems per section 8.0 of ANSI/SPRI/FM4435/ES-1. Appliances shall be isolated from or not attached to the roof edge system. Consult the lightning protection system manufacturer for specific attachment instructions.

DESCRIPTION

Application

EdgeBox is an innovative new product that is an engineered metal replacement system for roof nailers. The two-piece design replaces traditional wood blocking or nailers at the perimeter of a low-slope roof. EdgeBox attaches to the roof deck and is used in conjunction with OMG fascia profiles that have been tested to meet the ANSI/SPRI/FM4435/ES-1 roof edge standard, now required by the International Building Code.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURES

This is a general outline. Refer to our full installation guide for details.

Preparation:

The substrate should be flat and level from front to back. Shim areas not level.

Procedure:

Starting at the corners, install a closure strip at the end of the metal deck closing off the flutes and a finish strip parallel with the flutes provid-ing a level surface for EdgeBox. Fasten bottom sections of the blocking to the metal deck using the provided fasteners leaving an 1/8-in. gap for expansion. Slide end cap inserts into exposed ends of bottom section. Starting at the corners, place top section onto bottom section, secure each end with the supplied fasteners into holes provided.

FINISH

Natural mill galvanized steel
