When constructing a curved roof using the Standing Seam System, the panels are fixed in the same way as built up systems. An internal liner is fixed, followed by support brackets and bars. The design of standing seam means that these fixings and any penetrations are hidden from view. When combined with a non ferrous material for the top sheet this system of roofing is considered leak and corrosion proof.
