43. Installation of Gerard Stone Coated Metal Roofing
Advantages of Counter Battens
1. Used as a ladder during installation
2. MAXIMIZES air flow between the deck and panel; most energy efficient
3. Shim uneven roof
4. Strengthens roof structure
5. Can be installed over skip sheathing
6. Needed when doing most roof-over applications. This helps avoid
expensive tear-offs and unnecessary land fill disposal.
44. • Non-combustible and a Class A
material.
• If Class A assemblage is
required, certain underlayments
may be necessitated.
• See manufacturer's ICC Report
for specific information.
• Screws or nails can be used to
fasten panels.
• In high wind areas, additional
fasteners might be needed to
meet local building codes.
• Less expensive underlayments
are adequate due to Gerard

66. Benefits of Over-the-Deck Venting
The Department of Energy commissioned
Oak Ridge National Labs to conduct a study
of infrared-blocking color pigments. Ten
decks were tested for one year to include
both summer and winter conditions.
The results of the study?
Heat transfer was reduced by
approximately 45%
• 15% could be attributed to the
IR-pigment granules
• 30% was attributed to
batten/counter batten installation
(over the deck venting).

Subject: Fwd: my roof
Hi Matt,
Hope all is well. Today while working in the yard I realized that my gable fan
wasn't running. It was 92 degrees outside and I knew that the attic temperature
had to be at least 120 degrees. My attic fan automatically turns on when the
temperature reaches 105 so I went into my attic to see what was wrong. I
couldn't believe it. The attic was only 94 degrees! Two degrees warmer than
outside with a bright sun. I’ve seen it with my own eyes. The new roof you
installed is going to cut my A/C bill way down. Plus we have received several
compliments on the appearance of our home. We are so pleased and had to let
you know. Thanks a lot.

2. Add linear feet of hips and valleys, multiply by 2
3. Add totals from step 1 & 2
4. Multiply total by 1.06 = Roof square feet including waste
5. Divide total from step 4 by 100 = Roof squares
6. Multiply roof squares from step 5 by number of Gerard panels per square

6. Multiply roof squares by 24 (The shingle profiles have 24 panels per square)
Granite Ridge & Guardian Shingle
82. For Trim Caps:
BV, CS, Tile: Add all of the lineal feet of the hip, ridge, rake and divide by 1.2.
Add 3 extra pieces for every junction area . For the Shingle do the same
except do not add lineal feet of rake.
Accessories
For Starter, Fascia, Z-Bar, Valley, & etc:
Add all of the above material comes in 10’ sticks. Be sure an allow for
overlap and round up.
For Batten: All batten are calculated on a 1:1 ratio. For every square foot of roof
space, you calculate 1 lineal foot batten. For counter batten take the amount
of battens required for the job and multiply by .7
