We're in the process of completing contemporary home plans to construct in Northern California. We would like to apply vertical steel to radius roofs and would like to understand how to best achieve construction cost economies. Also what is the process for bending the steel to fit the radius angle - can it come from manufacturer or would roofing contractor need to fabricate?

There are only a few manufacturers that can radius vertical rib panels. Some take through fastened panels and brake form them across the width and some have machines that will roll form an arc in a standing seam panel. I would try our member manufactures such as Custom-Bilt Metals and start from there.
