MCA Releases 3-Part White Paper Series on Metal Roofing & Solar

The Metal Construction Association (MCA) has released a three-part white paper series, “Metal Roofing & PV Solar Systems Parts 1, 2 & 3.” Part one had been published earlier this year. Parts two and three were recently added to expand on the original paper and supply additional technical guidance for optimal installation and mounting of photovoltaic (PV) solar systems on metal roofing.

“For residential and commercial rooftop electric power, PV systems are environmentally friendly and a sound economic investment,” says Andy Williams, MCA’s director of codes and standards. “These white papers go beyond the advantages of these systems and look at the durability of the roof, along with mounting and installation practices that provide the optimal foundation for these advanced systems.”
