Very confused. Numerous vids mention the screws dont go in the valley, they go on the ridges. In the valley will allow water to leak through if/when the washer on the screw fails.
Depends on the pitch and weather conditions in your area. If you have a low pitch and wet weather it should be on the ridge, if you have a high pitch valleys can be used. Always no matter what place screws on ridge of overlaps.
Yes you can... I don't know where you got your information. This video is from a very well known Metal roofing supplier. Screw placement depends on the pitch and weather conditions in your area. If a low pitch and wet weather ( ridges are suggested) if a high pitch ( valley can be used ) always no matter what always place screws on ridge of overlaps.
I do not know the thickness of this metal but I went to Lowe's and used a micrometer to check thickness, it was 0.015" pretty dang flimsy, that ridge is easily going to flatten out as the washer is compressed. So I'm at a loss of what to do now. I came to the video for answers and I need to finish up my wife's shed project soon, very soon.
Do all Americans need to listen, to someone's life history that goes on and on . to buy some potion to help them loose weight . Do they ever get to the point. It's like listening to an audio book
i like the idea of a metal roof, but i've always thought exposed fasteners were a bad idea. any reason you can't cut the sheets in strips and install them like shingles?

@@serenap.1041 Thanks for clearing that up. I'm totally new to building materials and techniques and I was sure they all went onto ridges.

Your not supposed to screw the panel in the valley.

@@MrGwizyadig I went to Carter Lumber and they offered 26 gauge metal, thicker but not by much, project is on hold this week.
is it me or is there no overhang like the voice-over suggests there should be when using an eave flashing?
Maybe I missed it, but you didn't show how to install the side flashing along the gables.

It could be done but would look like crap... and not to mention a lot of unnecessary work.
