Standing Seam Roof Edge Detail
Wind hits a metal roof hardest at the eave, so the edge has to hold through every storm while still looking clean from the curb. Starting with ArcSite's standing seam roof edge detail, your crew sees how the panel hems over eave trim and locks to a trim cleat.
Key Features
This standing seam roof edge detail includes:
- SS675 panel fastened over wood decking
- Seam clip hidden beneath the rib
- Pancake head screws spaced 12" O.C. into the decking
- Trim cleat anchoring the eave trim to the wall
- Field-notched, hemmed panel end
- 3/8" non-curing butyl bead at the male rib
- 1 1/2" and 8" max dimensions near the eave
A gap between the hem and the eave trim lets the metal grow and shrink with the weather while the trim cleat keeps the edge from lifting.

Frequently asked questions
Does this detail show a gutter?
No. It ends at the eave trim. Add a gutter and hangers in ArcSite if the job includes one.
Can I change the screw spacing?
Absolutely! Edit the O.C. callout in ArcSite to match the manufacturer's fastening schedule.
Can my crew see this detail in the field?
Sure. Field crews pull up drawings on their own tablets, so this detail climbs the ladder with them.
