WEATHER TIGHT STRUCTURAL RIVETS

WEATHER TIGHT STRUCTURAL RIVETS

WEATHER TIGHT STRUCTURAL RIVETS

(OP)
We are building sound insulated panels from commercial quality 16 ga G90 galvanized sheet steel formed into panels.  The design requires a spine beam made continuous with the panel skin.  Our preferred method is pop riveting.  Does anyone know a rivet system that is:
- weather and leak tight on a flat roof for up to 30 years exposure for any continental U.S. location.  Severe industrial exposures would be painted (zinc rich base, epoxy fill, urethane top coat).
- compatable with galvanized sheet steel.
- resistant to panel flexure and vibration with reliable shear strength.
