LYSAGHT® HR-29TM
About LYSAGHT® HR-29™
Steel Roofing & Walling Profile
PRODUCT PROFILE
®
LYSAGHT HR-29™ profile is a pierce-
fastened roofing and walling system
that is suitable for classical or
contemporary architecture. It can be
rollformed to fit building designs that
are either pitched or sprung curved.
®
As an added feature, LYSAGHT HR-
29™ can also be sprung curved to
accommodate large span roofs.
Due to its pierce-fastened system,
®
LYSAGHT HR-29™ profile is fast and
easy to install therefore providing
savings in construction time and
installation cost. Its on-site rollforming
option enables ease of installation and
allows longer lengths to be produced.
®
The high rib depth of LYSAGHT HR-
29™ provides excellent stiffness and
hence, optimises the purlins spanning
capacity while reducing the amount of
purlins used.
Manufactured using BlueScope Steel’s
®
premium products - ZINCALUME steel
®
and Clean COLORBOND steel,
®
LYSAGHT HR-29™ profile is reliable
and durable. Additionally, it comes
with warranties* to suit different
environmental conditions and a variety
of applications whether they are
industrial, commercial, residential or
institutional.

WIND PRESSURE

Table 3 provides the capacities
of allowable wind pressure for
serviceability and strength limit state
design. The wind pressure capacities
are based on tests conducted
at BlueScope Steel’s NATA registered
testing laboratory at Lysaght
Technology in Sydney, Australia.
Testing was conducted in accordance
to AS1562.1-1992, “Design and
Installation of Sheet Roof and Wall
Cladding”, and AS4040.2-1992,
“Resistance to Wind Pressure for Non-
Cyclonic Regions”.
The serviceability limit state is based
on a deflection limit of:
(span/120) + (p/30),
where p is the maximum fastener pitch.
The pressure capacities for strength
limit state have been determined by
testing the product to failure (ultimate
load capacity). These pressures are
applicable to the cladding being fixed
to materials of a minimum of 1.0mm in
thickness.

RAINWATER RUN OFF FOR LYSAGHT® HR-29™

®
LYSAGHT HR-29™ has better water
drainage capacity due to its profile
featuring high rib depth. As a guide,
Table 4 shows the maximum
recommended length for roofing using
this profile (based on roof slopes
and rainfall intensities). These
recommended lengths are based on
CSIRO and BlueScope Lysaght testing
®
of LYSAGHT roofing profiles under
peak rainfall conditions.
