I'm thinking of installing a new metal roof for my house. According to the supplier of the metal tile, there isn't a pre-fabricated three way barrel capping for metal roofs. I would like to find out how a three-way capping can be installed to avoid any possible leaking problem. Thanks!

By three-way capping, are you referring to something where two hips meet a ridge? There will not be a standard part to do this because the exact part would have to vary based upon roof pitch. The manufacturers of these systems will have details on how to handle this area so that the two hips are safely and securely brought together up under the ridge cap in a watertight fashion.
