Curved Sheeting Manual

Curved sheeting is most generally manufactured by pressing cross profiles into the sheet, the cross profiles causing the sheet to curve. The radius of curve is determined by the spacing and depth of these cross profiles.

Smooth curve sheeting, which is manufactured by a process not involving cross profiling, is also available. The design and installation considerations are basically the same, however, the radii available and choice of curves is more limited with smooth curves, therefore these details should be checked with the manufacturers concerned prior to design.

Standing seam curves and large radius curves are not within the scope of this manual.

This manual contains generally accurate information. However, there will be variability of detail between different manufacturers. The curved sheeting design should thus be checked with manufacturer before placing an order.
