Storage Requirements
GREEN-LITE should be stored in warehouse areas free from direct sunlight or heat. They should be stacked only on a flat surface.
Installation Guidelines
Fasteners should be secured without excessive tension which would deform the GREEN-LITE. In roofing applications, fastening is best through the crest of the material (Figures 1 & 2). For side walls, fastening would be through the valleys (Figure 3). GREEN-LITE is firmly fixed when fastened at every third corrugation and every second corrugation at the ridge and gutter. At the ridge and gutter, material should be fastened through the valleys (Figure 4). Neoprene washers should be used with GREEN-LITE.
When joining sheets, an overlap of one corrugation is recommended. The upper sheet in the overlap should be upwind (Figure 1). If overlap is required in the sheet length, we recommend a 6" overlap.
Recommended purlin spacing is 36" at the ridge and gutter and 48" at the mid spans (Figure 5).
Stiff fixing by means of adhesive or putty is to be avoided. If using sealants, contact your distributor for recommended sealants.
Fabrication
Cut GREEN-LITE with shears, razor kife, or circular saw with fine tooth blade. Make sure the sheet is held securely in place when cutting to avoid vibrations which cause surface streaks.
It is important to allow for thermal expansion and contraction when drilling holes.
Hole diameter should be drilled 5/64" larger than the diameter of fastener.
Bending Radii
Unlike glass and acrylic, GREEN-LITE can be readily cold formed to many bending radii and can be fabricated on site to precise dimensions. The minimum bending radius is 13 feet.
Easy To Install
GREEN-LITE won't crack or split when cut or drilled and can be easily fabricated using standard tools. Able to withstand extreme abuse, the impact strength of the
GREEN-LITE is stronger than fiberglass, glass and acrylic. Weighing just 1/8 the weight of glass, GREEN-LITE does not require the extensive structural support that a heavier glass wall or skyligt needs. Lightweight sheet is easy to handle.
