<strong>ERECTION</strong> <strong>AND</strong> <strong>SAFETY</strong> <strong>MANUAL</strong><br />
Good alignment of the screws, especially on the wall panels, will give a professional appearance to the<br />
wall panel installation. One way this can be accomplished is by pre-drilling holes in the panels at identical<br />
locations. Up to 15 panels can be stacked together and drilled using a template panel. Use 1/8” or 3/32”<br />
diameter drill bit for panel to structural fasteners and a 1/4” diameter bit for the sidelap clearance holes.<br />
It is important to clean metal fi lings off panel surfaces after drilling to avoid rust stains.<br />
