copper roof: "I am going to roof my pitched roof with cold ..." - Guest User (6/26/2009) | Standing Seam roof | Archive

I am going to roof my pitched roof with cold rolled Flat copper sheets 36" x 120". I will be folding all 4 sides, 2 up and 2 down and then soldering them together. Will the size of the sheets create a ripple or corrugation of the sheets due to expansion? Thank you Rafael		Guest User 6/26/2009	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/13500/find/
At that size, yes, you may see some rippling. Many folks will consider that to be part of the charm and beauty of a soldered sheet installation. The Copper Development Association will be able to help you calculate the anticipated expansion and contraction of panels that size.
