• Ensure that any loads, such as storage and
equipment, are only supported by panels
that have been designed and installed to
perform this function.
• Check that the inner and outer skins are
adhering tightly to the core.
• Ensure that the panels are correctly
secured to the structure or are designed to
be independently structurally secure. One
solution is to ensure the retaining brackets
bolt the panel to a support frame through
the outer and inner skins.
• Ensure large roof cavities are appropriately
protected, e.g. escape routes are clear,
signed and have limited travel distance,
and fire warning systems are audible.
