Roofing Panel Seam and Profile Inspection

Inspection template for standing seam roof and wall panels coming off the rollformer, verifying rib profile, coverage width, seam quality, and field-fit readiness before installation.

Inspection Setup and Panel Identification

• Panel type, profile, and gauge match the job traveler or shop order
• Panel length, color/finish, and quantity are identified and traceable
• Inspection tools available and suitable for dimensional verification
• Reference profile or approved sample available at inspection station

Rib Profile and Form Accuracy

• Rib profile matches approved profile geometry
• Rib height and shape are consistent along the full panel length
• Rib spacing is uniform and free from waviness or distortion
• Panel is straight with no visible twist, bow, or oil-canning beyond acceptable limits

Coverage Width and Dimensional Verification

• Overall coverage width measured within approved tolerance
• Male and female seam legs are formed to the correct width and depth
• Panel coverage is consistent from end to end
• Cut length, end condition, and squareness support proper field lap and seam engagement

Seam Quality and Field-Fit Readiness

• Seam closes fully and evenly without gaps, splits, or open hems
• Seam alignment is straight and consistent for field lapping and seaming
• Seam edges are free from burrs, sharp deformation, cracks, or coating damage
• Panel end laps, if present, are formed to allow proper overlap and water-shedding performance

Surface Condition, Handling Damage, and Sign-Off

• Surface finish is free from dents, scratches, scuffs, and roll-forming marks that exceed acceptance criteria
• Panels are stacked, tagged, and protected to prevent transit or handling damage
• Non-conformances documented and dispositioned
• Inspector signature
