Unlike composite panelling and twinskin systems however, the standing seam or curved roof uses continuous lengths of sheeting, which are craned in at roof level to create a unbroken finish that is free from lapping in between sheets.
One project for Rolls-Royce saw the use of 120m long sheets, an example of some of the longest sheets to be used in the UK. The void is insulated before the weather or top sheet is fixed above. The top sheet is often aluminium lending the roof a metallic & modern appearance, this may also be specified in steel which can be prove to be a cost effective option in many cases.
