- Sleeves are required to provide structural continuity of the purlin section across the supporting rafter.
- All sleeves are of similar length and longitudinal drillings consistent.
- Sleeve thickness is dependent on purlin thickness.
| Purlin Thickness | Sleeve Thickness |
|---|---|
| Up to 1.8mm | 2.0mm |
| Over 1.8mm - 2.3mm | 2.5mm |
| Over 2.3mm - 3.0mm | 3.0mm |
Albion Tip: The most cost effective purlin system, in terms of material content and number of components to erect, is the double span butt system.
