ASTM E 1637 Document Information:
Title
Standard Specification for Structural Standing Seam Aluminum Roof Panel Systems
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Sep 10, 1998
Scope:
This specification covers the design, construction, and weatherability
of structural standing seam
aluminum roof panel systems. It includes performance requirements for
the following elements only:
panels, concealed panel clips, panel/clip anchorage, and panel joint
sealers.
NOTE 1 - These systems are used on both low-slope and steep-slope roof
applications. They also are
used with or without an underlying deck or sheathing.
The objective of this specification is to provide for the overall
performance of the structural
standing seam aluminum roof panel system as defined in 3.2.6 during
its service life in order to
provide weather protection, carry the specified design loads, and
allow proper access over the roof
surface in order to provide for periodic maintenance of the equipment
by the building owner.
In addition to structural characteristics, the specifier shall
evaluate other characteristics
beyond the scope of this specification that affect the final choice of
roof construction. These
include, but are not limited to, functional, legal, insurance, and
economic considerations. See
Appendix X1 for the specifier's checklist.
This specification is not intended to exclude products or systems not
covered by the referenced
documents.
The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the
standard. The values given in
parentheses are for information only.
The text of this specification contains notes and footnotes that
provide explanatory information
and are not requirements of this specification.
