The pressure capacities for strength have been determined by testing the cladding to failure
(ultimate capacity). These pressures are applicable when the cladding is fixed to a minimum of
1.0mm, G550 steel.
For material less than 1.0mm thick, seek advice from Lysaght representative.

METHOD STATEMENT AND GENERAL NOTES
WALKING ON ROOFS
Keep your weight evenly distributed over the soles of both feet to avoid concentrating your weight
on either heels or toes. Always wear smooth soft-soled shoes; avoid ribbed soles that pick up and
hold small stones, swarf and other objects.
Be careful when moving between supports. Do not walk in the pan immediately adjacent to flashings
or translucent sheeting. Walk at least one pan away.
ADVERSE CONDITIONS
If this product is to be used in marine, severe industrial, or unusually corrosive environments, ask for
advice from Lysaght representative.
MAINTENANCE
Optimum product life will be achieved if all external walls are washed regularly. Areas not cleaned by natural
rainfall (such as the tops of walls sheltered by eaves) should be washed down every six months.
Handle materials carefully to avoid damage: don’t drag materials over rough surfaces or each other; don’t
drag tools over material; protect from swarf.
Similarly, the pans at the gutter end must be turned down to stop water running back along the underside of
the sheets.
NOTCHING TOOL
A tool is available for on-site notching of transverse flashings and cappings.
CUTTING
For cutting thin metal on site, we recommend a circular saw with a metal cutting blade because it produces
fewer damaging hot metal particles and leaves less resultant burr than a carborundum disc does.
Cut materials over the ground and not over other materials.
Sweep all metallic swarf and other debris from roof areas and gutters at the end of each day and at the
completion of the installation. Failure to do so can lead to surface staining when the metal particles rust.
6
FASTENERS
Where insulation is to be installed, you may need to increase the length of the screws given below,
depending on the density and thickness of the insulation.
• into metal: there should be at least three threads protruding past the support you are fixing to, but the
Shankguard must not reach that support;
• into timber: the screw must penetrate the timber by the same amount that the recommended screw would
do if there were no insulation;
• Fasteners should comply to AS3566, Class 3 or Class 4.
SEALED JOINTS
For sealed joints use screws or rivets and neutral-cure silicone sealant branded as suitable for use with
galvanised or ZINCALUME® steel.
INSTALLATION
PREPARATION
Before starting work ensure that:
• The supports for your cladding are truly in the same plane;
• The minimum roof slopes conform to our recommendations; and
• The overhangs of sheets from the top and bottom supports don’t exceed our recommendations.
• The first and last supports and clips should be at least 75mm from each end of the sheet to keep
maximum holding power.
Make any necessary adjustments before you start laying sheets, because they will be difficult to
rectify later.
7
ORIENT SHEETS BEFORE LIFTING
Consider which end of the building is best to start from. For maximum weather-tightness, start
laying sheets from the end of the building that will be downwind of the worst-anticipated or prevailing
weather (Figure 1).
SHEET 3
SHEET 2
SHEET 1
Figure 1
Lay sheets towards prevailing weather
It is much easier and safer to turn sheets on the ground than up on the roof. Before lifting sheets on to the
roof, check that they are the correct way up and the overlapping side is towards the edge of the roof from
which installation will start.
Place bundles of sheets over or near firm supports, not at mid span of roof members.
It is essential that the sheets interlock completely. It is important that your weight is fully on the sheet you are
installing.

(and subsequent) clips and sheets. Add subsequent clips and sheets as required.

At about halfway through the job, perform a similar check but take the measurements from the finishing line to aim for the final
sheet to be parallel with the end of the roof. If the measurements are not close enough, lay subsequent sheets very slightly
out of parallel to gradually correct the error. (Figure 6) To allow this to happen, flatten the tabs on the base of subsequent clips
- the slot in the clip will allow the clips to be fixed out of standard pitch.

INSTALLING LYSAGHT® KLIP-LOK OPTIMA™ WALLS
The installation procedure for walls is similar to that described for roofs. To prevent LYSAGHT®
KLIP-LOK OPTIMA™ from sliding downward in the fixing clips, you should pierce-fix through
each sheet under the flashing or capping, along the top of the sheets.
Note: Don’t exceed the maximum support spacing specified by the translucent cladding manufacturer.
Use of translucent sheeting may result in lower limit state capacities.
Whether you’re searching for a distinctive look for a new home or looking for an economic solution for a large
commercial project BlueScope Lysaght offer an extensive range of rainwater solutions.
Our domestic rainwater goods are manufactured from ZINCALUME® steel with COLORBOND® steel colours
available, so they’ll stand up to years of the harshest Australian climate.
The choice of colours and styles is extensive, covering everything you could need from gutters and downpipes, to
fascia, flashings and cappings, as well as fasteners and fixing clips.
There is a standard procedure for designing the drainage of a roof using an eaves & gutter system. It is assumed
that the gutters will have a gradient steeper than 1:500. Box gutter systems can be more complex and are
thoroughly treated in AS/NZS 3500.3.2:1998.
We manufacture the perfect guttering system for your structure, whichever type is appropriate.
All designs can be complemented with our complete range of square and round downpipes and rainwater
accessories. To ensure quick and easy installation there is also a full range of matching fixing clips.

COLORBOND® STEEL AND ZINCALUME® STEEL
LYSAGHT® products are made of highest quality material, namely COLORBOND® steel and
ZINCALUME® steel which are the leading materials for external cladding application.
COLORBOND® steel and ZINCALUME® steel have been used on countless buildings to portray
modern architecture works of art, ranges from the classic roofing to advance façade for industrial,
commercial and residential buildings.
COLORBOND® steel is a pre-painted finished product with ZINCALUME® steel substrate to deliver both
superior corrosion resistance and excellent colour performance.
It comes with the THERMATECH® solar reflectance technology and Clean technology to minimize tropical dirt
staining while lowering urban heat island effect, delivering longevity and minimal maintenance to your external
cladding.
Product Attributes
• Pre-painted finish on top of ZINCALUME® steel substrate to deliver superior corrosion resistance.
• Superior primer technology which prevents paint delamination.
• Proprietary super polyester paint system proven to provide excellent colour performance.
• Clean technology incorporated to resist against tropical dirt staining.
• THERMATECH® solar reflectance technology to allow for lower temperature cladding.
• Wide varieties of colours and finishes to cater for your building design needs.
ZINCALUME® steel is a metallic coated steel product composed of 55% aluminium, 43.5% zinc and 1.5% silicon
(aluminium-zinc alloy coating) that can provide superior corrosion resistance for your external cladding, with expected
lifespan that’s four times the life of generic alternatives (GI).
Product Attributes
• Superior corrosion resistance due to the minimum coating class of AZ150.
• Initial resistance to surface marking and wet storage corrosion due to the proprietary clear resin coating.
• Better aesthetics compared to generic alternatives (Al-Zn) due to less surface darkening, afforded by the proprietary
clear resin coating.
• Lightweight and thermally efficient compared to conventional roofing materials (e.g. concrete and clay tiles)
• Excellent flexibility in design as steel can be bent and curved to form truly unique designs.
This material warranty may vary to buildings nearer to marine or industrial environment and is subjected to prior
agreement by BlueScope. For full terms and conditions and to determine the eligibility of your project for the warranty,
please contact your Key Account Manager.
There are different internal and external environments affecting the longevity of
COLORBOND® steel and ZINCALUME® steel, hence feel free to consult our material experts
for more specialized recommendations.
Examples of recommendations:
• Direct contact between COLORBOND® steel or ZINCALUME® steel with copper, lead and
stainless steel should be avoided.
If condensation on the reverse side of roofing sheet is likely, vapour barrier should be installed
to shield COLORBOND® steel or ZINCALUME® steel from prolonged exposure to the
condensation (moisture).
