Subject: Low cycle fatigue cracking of light gauge metal roofing was investigated by testing a number of two-span corrugated roofing assemblies under cyclic uplift wind loading. A large number of constant amplitude fatigue tests from zero or nonzero minimum load to various maximum loads was conducted for different spans and fastening systems. The results revealed the dependence of fatigue behaviour of corrugated roofing on the type of fastening system used. Fatigue test results correlated well with the corresponding static results reported earlier. Many types of cracks were observed depending on the type of fastening system used and the cyclic load levels. A comparison was made of the superiority of one fastening system over the other regarding fatigue performance
