- 11. Curbs for SSR Roof panels: Seamed in type.
- NOTE ** Walkways are for use with SSR panels only and are
- installed parallel or perpendicular to the ribs.
- Walkways can increase the equipment load capacity
- of curbs by removing the workman's foot traffic
- from the curb framing during installation and
- maintenance. Walkways are compatible with roof
- pitches of 1:12 and less.
- NOTE **
- NOTE ** Walkways may be used as maintenance platforms
- around roof equipment, pathways between equipment
- or pathways from roof access points to roof
- equipment. Walkways prevent foot traffic damage to
