5.21 STEEL BUILDING SKYLIGHT INSTALLATION

General Steel skylight panels are installed using the same procedures as a steel panel. Care should be taken when installing fasteners in the skylights to avoid cracking the material. Pre-drill 1/4” diameter fastener clearance holes in the overlapping sidelap and endlap.

 

 

 

NOTE:

Do not under any circumstances step on or walk on surface of skylight. If foot traffic is necessary over skylight, use walk boards that are properly supported by building purlins. Placing of "DANGER DO NOT WALK" markings on every skylight must be done without fail. Safety first!
