How to Install a Slope Transition on a Standing Seam Roof: SMI Detail T2

Learn how to install the Sheffield Metals T2 standing seam metal roof slope transition detail in this video tutorial.
**********************************
Some roof designs incorporate a slope or pitch change in the middle of a roof plane. To make this condition water-tight, a transition detail that allows a second panel run to be installed at the new slope is required. In this video, Jason from the Sheffield Metals Technical department demonstrates how to install the Sheffield Metals T2 roof transition detail from start-to-finish.

Thank you for making this video. I have a gambrel roof that involves a steep slope (60 degrees or about 22/12 transitioning to a 4/12 pitch. It would be great if you did a video on the best way to make the high to low transition.

Good question, I'll add it to the list! -Thad

Question for all the experts: I have a pitch elevation transition to install where the transition doesn't span the width of the side of the roof. To make matters worse, the upper corners of the lower transition meet a hip ridge, so the ridge cap will actually overlap those corners of the transition. The building has a 4 sided hip roof (no gables) and the transition is for the front porch, where the front porch does not extend the full length of the main roof and it attaches ~2ft up the roof. So I'm trying to figure out how to transition from porch roof to main roof (those upper corners of porch) and how to plan for the hip ridge caps to be continuous.

Is it possible to overlap standing seam??

Why not make it one whole panel
