ABSTRACT:
A roofing panel assembly including, in combination, a first roofing panel and a second roofing panel. Each roofing panel comprises a body plate portion and an edge attaching portion. The edge attaching portion of the first roofing panel includes an outwardly extending plate portion, a bridge plate portion offset from the body portion, a transition portion, and a return bend flange portion. A sealant strip extends lengthwise of the transition portion and between the bridge plate portion and return bend flange. The edge attaching portion of the second roofing panel includes an outwardly extending plate portion, a bridge plate portion offset from the body plate portion, a first return bend flange, a transition portion of the second roofing panel, a second return bend flange, an inwardly extending plate portion, and an attachment flange. Means in the attachment flange attaches the attachment flange to a sheathing member. The transition portion of the second roofing panel engages the sealing strip to form a seal between the roofing panels. Each roofing panel may be manufactured by roll forming to an intermediate configuration in which the return bend portion and bridge plate portion of the edge attaching portion of the first panel are coupled by and diverge from the transition portion having a concave face facing a smaller angle included between the bridge plate and return bend portions, forming and attaching a bead of sealant to the concave face of the transition portion and roll forming of the panel so the transition portion supports the return bend flange and bridge plate portion in spaced opposed relation with the sealant bead therebetween.
