The NZ Metal Roof and Wall Cladding Code of Practice is a comprehensive design & installation guide, and a recognised related document for Acceptable Solution E2/AS1 of the NZ Building Code.
All roof cladding with a pitch of less than 8° must be provided with turn-downs after the roof is fixed, using special tools to ensure water flows directly into the gutter.
Where profiles that prevent turning down the pan (such as deep corrugated) are fixed at pitches of less than 8°, an 8.4.4.4 Eaves Flashing must be installed.
Distortion should be avoided because it causes ponding and the collection of dirt, which in turn causes corrosion.
