FEATURES AND BENEFITS

  1. DESIGN INTEGRITY
    The UItra-DekŪ begins and ends in a high standing seam, reducing the risk of leakage at the rake that can occur when finishing in the low. The panel seam is sealed with a factory-applied hot-melt mastic, a superior grade to mastics applied in the field.
  2. FLOATING ROOF
    The Ultra-DekŪ roof was designed to cope with the forces of expansion and contraction. This is accomplished by allowing the panels to freely move up and down the roof slope. Due to this design feature, the system offers no diaphragm capabilities or purlin stability.
  3. CLIP SELECTION
    A large selection of clips is available for various types of construction. The articulating clip eliminates the binding and friction during panel expansion and contraction caused by a misformed, misaligned or improperly erected substructure. The clip provides a 3/8" clearance at the purlin to reduce water ponding on low pitch roofs. Constructed from 12 gauge material, this clip is an integral part of maintaining panel module within the floating system.
  4. UL CLASS 90 RATING
    The UItra-DekŪ roof system has 10 different UL Class 90 construction numbers, each of which are available with several options.
  5. FIRE RESISTANCE RATINGS
    The roof system qualifies for use in several UL design assemblies and carries a UL "Class A" fire rating.
  6. SIMPLICITY
    No field seaming is required. The panels simply snap together forming a self-locking seal.
  7. FLEXIBILITY
    The Ultra-DekŪ roof system offers welcome flexibility to the erector. Wall covering can be erected before or after the roof is installed. Panel installation is an uninterrupted procedure.
  8. EASE OF INSTALLATION
    The erector has the option to install each side of the roof separately or both sides simultaneously, which greatly increases the speed and convenience of erection. Being reversible end-for-end, sheets do not have to be special ordered for each side of the building. No field notching of panels at endlaps or ridge is required.
  9. FORGIVING SYSTEM
    The Ultra-DekŪ system design allows for the roof to be finished in the "high" when an out-of-square condition or other factors cause the roof to terminate up to 4’ from the steel line.
  10. BUILDING LENGTH
    Odd, as well as even, footage buildings can be terminated in a major rib with the use of our 12" and 18" panel or at other odd widths by field bending the panel.
  11. PREPUNCHED PANELS AND COMPONENTS
    A prepunched system, combined with self-engaging back-up plates, assures panel module and speeds roof installation.
  12. DURABILITY
    Every unpainted panel is manufactured from Galvalume PlusŪ, your assurance of our commitment to quality.
  13. COLOR AND FINISHES
    Ultra-DekŪ is available in a wide variety of popular colors in three different paint systems.
