building. Installation shall suit the local conditions at the site for wind loading, rainfall, and
thermal expansion.

Installation methods and practices shall comply with the relevant Statutory legislation and
regulations for construction safety, and shall be subject to the Authorised Engineer or
Representative's approval.

All visible lines of fasteners and laps shall be true to line and level. Installation shall commence
from the leeward end of the building so that side laps are afforded maximum protection from
the prevailing weather. Sheets shall be fixed in single lengths wherever possible.
