At
TRA-Mage, our snow brackets are engineered from the fail point
of the roof system. Through proper testing and research, we
have developed unique engineered charts. These charts calculate
the number of snow brackets required and their correct distribution
as provided in a roofing square layout based on the roof surface
type, sheathing type and thickness, snow load, and roof slope.

Bracket I Technical Guide
Tile
Roof Accessories (TRA-Mage) Snow Bracket I has been engineered
for use with all corrugated metal roofs.
For optimum assurance that snow and ice will not slide, always
use the snow load / slope chart to determine the number of snow
brackets or snow guards per square of roofing. Snow loads vary.
Check with local building department to verify the snow load for
your area.
INSTALLATION
For corrugated metal roofs:
Place the I Bracket with the triangular end of the snow racket
on the down slope end of the roofing in the pan of the corrugation.
Drill holes through existing holes in the snow bracket and through
roofing product and sheathing. Hole size should be smaller than
screw threads to prevent the screw from pulling out when stressed.
Remove the bracket. Install caulking in holes and on base of the
snow bracket. Place the snow bracket or snow guard on roofing,
align holes and screw through holes and caulking with a screw
and neoprene rubber gasket.
PACKAGING
