It's more than just metal sheets! From metal coils and panels to clips, fasteners, and ventilation, each component plays a crucial role in providing stability, durability, and protection from the elements. Here's a breakdown of what makes up this essential system: Metal Coils/Sheets: The foundation, treated and coated for durability. Panels: Shaped metal pieces ready to form the roof. Seam: Connects metal panels securely. Profile: Determines how panels fit and connect. Underlayment: Provides moisture protection. Clips & Fasteners: Attach panels to the roof deck. Ventilation: Essential for airflow and building health. Closure & Sealant: Keep out weather and pests. Butyl Tape: Seals cracks and seams. Clamps: Secure additional roofing items. RoofBoot/Pipe Boot: Seals exhaust pipes on the roof. Each element contributes to a robust, weather-tight system for your structure. #marcoindustries #RoofingSystem #ConstructionEssentials

The aluminum window industry has made incredible strides in thermal performance, primarily driven by evolving yet demanding energy codes. Take the photo above for example - track the line of continuous insulation, thermal breaking the exterior to interior conditions. ▪️Center of glass – multiple panes, low-e coatings, gas filled cavity. ▪️Edge of glass – warm edge spacer filled with desiccant, continuous perimeter seal. ▪️Foam filled cavities – reducing the rate of convective heat transfer. ▪️Truss shaped rubber gasketing – maintaining that tight compression seal while mitigating air infiltration. ▪️Ribbed polyamide struts – mitigating conductive heat transfer. ▪️Mineral wool insulation – mitigating convective heat transfer at interface conditions. It’s only just the start, but a step in the right direction to balance performance, durability, and aesthetics.

Want to minimize stress breakage? The head design (standard or V-Groove) of the #Cementex #DoubleInsulated Water Pump Pliers has right angle, laser heat treated teeth with an undercut tongue and reinforced edge. #MadeInTheUSA #LifetimeMechanicalWarranty https://bit.ly/3HnM3qK

Surface Conditioning Quick Change Disc Surface Conditioning Disc comes in a wide variety of grades and sizes and is an ideal first-step for cleaning, blending, deburring, and finishing. Durable, non-woven fiber construction conforms well on irregular or contoured surfaces without undercutting or damaging the base material. Features: 1. Water and oil resistant Good anti-clogging performance 2. Smart thread design Quick and convenient replacement of the grinding head. 3. Screw safety locks, leading to low chance of “fly off” when in use.

Thermal bridging issues at parapet caps in metal stud wall assemblies can be a challenge to analyze and mitigate. While using thermal analysis and spray foam can help, the high thermal conductivity of steel studs means that no insulation can completely avoid cold interior surfaces at these stud locations. #ThermalBridging #ConstructionChallenges #InsulationStrategies

Cold Outside... Warm In Here When all is said and done, the most energy-efficient exterior door you can choose is a fiberglass door with a polyurethane foam core. A polyurethane foam core acts as extra insulation for the fiberglass layers. Make sure your front door’s windows (if it has any) are made with low-emissivity (low-e) glass to further increase energy efficiency. #dyke #dykedoors #coldweather #fiberglassdoors #patiodoors #outsidelookingin #doorsofinstagram
