<p>An innovative construction company, Spantech, has developed Australia’s widest self-supporting curved roofing panel. Architects have begun successfully applying the technology to large commercial projects such as sports centres and multipurpose halls, indoor swimming pools and large shade structures.<br /><br /></p>.<p> They all benefit from the expansive open space created when trusses and internal columns are eliminated from the design. The roof panels are roll-formed on site from pre-painted, colour-bond coil steel. The patented self-locking edge allows panels to clip together with a strong waterproof seal; no screws or bolts are needed. It is fast, simple and cost-effective.<br /><br />The profile is initially rolled as a continuous straight panel. It is then curved to the required radius. The panels are used to create a distinctive self-supporting curved roof. There are two profile sizes available: one spans 30 metres, while the other spans 40 metres. Acoustic and thermally insulated ceilings, plus a wide range of services, can be supporte <br />directly from the roof. Larger loads require lightweight structural members.<br /><br />Spantech offers design assistance to help architects maximise the <br />benefits of their existing system. The privately-owned company was established in Australia in 1984 to design and construct buildings using the Spantech construction system, which features a site roll-formed construction panel with wide-span capabilities and a unique connection method.<br /><br /></p>
