TAPE SEALER PLACEMENT FOR
LIGHT TRANSMITTING PANEL ENDLAPS

LIGHT TRANSMITTING PANEL TRIM INSTALLATION
(OPTIONAL)

Light transmitting panel trim is available to cover the exposed insulation at the sides of the light transmitting panel opening. Two pieces of 2 1/4"x3 1/4"x10'-3" angle are required per light transmitting panel. This angle is designed to work with either the low or the high system. THE 2 1/4" LEG IS TURNED UP FOR THE LOW SYSTEM AND THE 3¼ LEG IS TURNED UP FOR THE HIGH SYSTEM.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

Install panels up to light transmitting panel run. Do not install clips on this run until first light transmitting panel trim piece is installed. Cut and remove insulation where light transmitting panel is to be located. Leave enough insulation at the top and bottom of the opening to be rolled back, allowing only the backing to be exposed. Place double faced tape on top of the horizontal leg of the trim to hold the insulation. Notch trim for back-up plates and install directly under male leg of last panel installed, running from lower light transmit ting panel purlin to upper light transmitting panel purlin. Attach to purlins with Fastener #1. Install clips. Install lower light transmit ting panel run panel. Leave upper-most clip off until next trim piece is installed. Fold insulation end tab under lower panel and install light transmitting panel. Fold upper insulation end tab above light transmitting panel. Fold upper insulation end tab above light transmitting panel and install upper light transmitting panel. Place double faced tape on next trim piece and notch for back-up plates. Install directly under male leg of light transmitting panel and clip all panels down.

TAPE SEALER PLACEMENT
FOR LIGHT TRANSMITTING PANEL ENDLAPS

Install first layer of Tri-Bead tape sealer across panel width as outlined on page UD-36. However, for the upslope and downslope endlaps for light transmitting panels, install a second layer of Tri-Bead tape sealer across the trapezoid areas of the panel.
