Abstract:
The invention provides a system for installing a rail and closure assembly on a metal roof. The rail and closure assembly includes a supporting rail and closure structure adapted to be supported by adjacent rib elevations of the roof, and an overlying load adapted to be supported by the rail and closure structure. The rail and closure structure diverts water around the rail and closure assembly. The entire heights of the side rails, including the rail bottoms, are above the closest portions of the panel flats. At least one panel of each of the side rails faces the respective rib along the full length of the respective side rail. The rail and closure assembly also includes a lower closure. Opposing ends of the lower closure extend upwardly and interface with the ribs. The lower closure further comprises a lower flange which interfaces with a respective panel flat.

Claim (Index 30):
A load system for installing a load on a metal panel roof, such metal panel roof comprising elongate metal roof panels, each having a length and a width, such roof panels defining elevated roof panel ribs, panel flats being disposed between such roof panel ribs, said load system comprising:\n (a) a rail and closure structure suitable for being supported by ones of the elevated roof panel ribs, said rail and closure structure comprising a first side rail, for mounting directly to a first such rib wherein a first bottom panel of said first side rail faces a panel of such first rib, along a full length of said first side rail, and a second side rail, for mounting directly to a second such rib, wherein a second bottom panel of said second side rail faces a panel of such second rib, along a full length of said second side rail; and (b) a load adapted to be supported on said rail and closure structure.
