Abstract
Why would a property owner consider metal roofing for his building? Why would an architect decide to incorporate metal roofing into a project? Why would a contractor want to be involved in the metal roofing business? The answer to all of these questions is: metal is the material that is right for many uses, on many types of structures. Of course, metal would not be the proper choice for all conditions, but there are many situations where metal roofing is the best solution to the many requirements considered when choosing roofing materials.
