Course Description: AEC Daily: Designing with Insulated Metal Roof Panels
Lightweight, prefinished, and factory-fabricated insulated metal panels (IMPs) offer building owners a durable, costefficient, and easy-to-install roofing system that provides an air barrier, vapor barrier, and insulation all in one product. This course discusses the characteristics of IMPs and the installation process and explains why IMPs are ideally suited for pre-engineered and structural steel buildings. The role of IMPs in a building’s hygrothermal control layers and IMP code compliance are reviewed.
Discuss the characteristics, options, configurations, and installation process of insulated metal roof panels (IMPs).
Describe the engineering considerations affecting panel use, especially roof support structures, diaphragms, and panel spans.
Explain why IMPs are ideally suited for both structural steel and pre-engineered buildings (PEBs) as well as roof retrofits.
Identify how IMPs provide all necessary air, water, vapor, and thermal control layers through a single component offering outstanding thermal efficiency and durability.
Discuss building codes and standards applicable to IMP installation.
