WHAT IS LYSAGHT SUPABRIDGE®?
The LYSAGHT SUPABRIDGE® roofing system provides an innovative and safe alternate solution for compliance to Section J requirements of the National Construction Code (NCC). Section J is applicable to class 2 – 9 buildings.
The integrated LYSAGHT SUPABRIDGE® system replaces the need for the separate purlin bridging and roof raisers used in traditional commercial and industrial metal roof installation.
The system utilises the structural purlin depth to safely accommodate uncompressed blanket insulation and roof safety wire, thereby maintaining roof heights, and full sheeting (uplift) capacities by enabling direct fixing to purlin members.
The complete LYSAGHT SUPABRIDGE® system comprises the following components:
- LYSAGHT® roof sheeting
- SUPAPURLIN® Zed and Cee purlins
- SUPABRIDGE™ bridging members
- SUPATHERMIC™ insulation
- Safety wire
In Victoria, a variant of the LYSAGHT SUPABRIDGE® system, known as METALFORM MAX-BRIDGE® is available for use with METALFORM MAX-SPAN® purlins.
