The clips are inserted over the edges of the adjacent plywood panels to reduce deflection of the panel edges between the framing members and are most commonly used for roof sheathing.
Roof panel clips.
Our design and engineering input has been instrumental in producing some of the finest economy and heavy structural clip screws in the industry.
Keeps panels even for a level structural plane.
Therefore a structural engineer or other design.
This is what the apa engineered wood construction guide has to say about h clips.
The panel clips connect the roof panels to the roof structure so they need to be installed in a manner that allows them to do that job under normal and demanding circumstances.
We precision stamp snap lock clips of all types for architectural structural and many other varieties of standing seam roof panels.
And our bearing plate design has set a new standard overall.
Panel clips for metal roofing all types and sizes snap lock invisible trapezoid fixed and more.
A low slope roof below 2 12 pitch at the same span is an exception however and an h clip is specified.

Plywood clips are inserted by hand and the procedure is done in conjunction with installation of the sheathing.
Panel sheathing clips are used to brace unsupported panel edges when sheathing meets edge to edge without a rafter for support.

One or two h clips will often allow a longer span between roof trusses rafters.
