ABSTRACT:
A rectangular grid of support members is secured to a continuous load bearing roof deck. The interior of each grid section is filled with a layer of insulation extending from the roof deck to the top of the support members defining the grid. A plurality of flexible metal panels are positioned above each roof grid section to form overlapping joints between each of the panels. A strip of sealant is positioned within each of the overlapping joints. The overlapping joints are sequentially compressed. Compressive securing means are passed through each of the overlapping joints and secured to the upper surface of underlying support members at closely spaced apart intervals to interlock the adjacent panels and to form a compressed, water impervious seal along each of the overlapping joints.
