SUPER-RIB

TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

DESCRIPTION
Super-Rib is our strongest panel which allows for longer spans and a reduction in the number of supports.
As a wall panel, Super-Rib side laps in the low cell. As a roof panel, Super-Rib is inverted so that the side
lap occurs in the high cell. All Exposed Fastener wall panels may be installed in a variety of rainscreen
applications to form a complete wall system. Systems may vary from an uninsulated screenwall to
MetalWrap® Series, an insulated composite backup panel system with Advanced Thermal and Moisture
Protection (ATMP®). Refer to CENTRIA Technical bulletin TB-05-10 for all rainscreen applications.
