Elite System 3 - Metal Liner Over Purlins
Using a 0.7mm liner, tested to "Class B"
non-fragility, using the Secret Fix system over liners is a
remarkably quick and efficient roof construction. By lining out the
roof, sealing the laps to form a vapour check, the building has a
water tight (and air tight) membrane over the roof early on in the
building program. The outer sheet is also then very quick and easy
to install, as the lack of any end laps, the lack of the need for a
separate clip or halter and the easy under-lap seal and fixing
design allows each sheet to be very quickly and accurately
installed. Note that if rooflights are included, you must take
precautions regarding the potential creep in the liner sheet
matching the cover width of the outer profile. Failure to take
account of this at an early stage can lead to misalignment between
outer sheet and liner sheet rooflights. Please refer to the
technical manual for specific recommendations.

Elite System 6 - Structural Decking
Solution
Again, a quick and easy solution -
this option often offers a very cost effective alternative to
aluminum standing seam roofs which require some "value
engineering". The excellent guarantees available for coated steel
products mean that there is little perceivable difference on paper
to the performance of some standing seam systems compared with the
SF500 secret fix. Bear in mind when designing that Structural
Decking systems require an even distribution of loads across every
decking profile to prevent 'line loading' - hence the need for
tophats within the construction. Please refer to out Elite System 6
details for further information.
Elite System 3A & 6A - Sound Absorption
The use of a perforated liner and
acoustic insulation with the secret fix product offers a very
effective sound absorption system where the acoustic quality of the
internal environment is important. Due to the slight additional
weight of the overall system, a slightly better average sound
reduction (SRi) will also be obtained compared with the lighter
weight standing seam.
Elite System 10 - Timber Frame - Cold Roof System
By applying a breather membrane to
a sarking board or similar decking surface, secret fix offers an
excellent solution to a cold roof system. Note that the side lap of
the sheet is fully sealed, therefore it would be normal to create
passive ventilation under the sheet by use of ventilated eaves and
ridge fillers.
Elite System 11 - Timber Frame - Warm Roof
Installing a Eurobar Extra spacer bar system
over a sarking or similar decking board offers a convenient way of
achieving a warm roof construction over a timber frame. A separate
vapour control layer should be used, however most other aspects of
the construction are identical to a steel frame construction.
