RE: roof plates
On the first issue, yes, the roof plate can be welded to the supporting roof structure, but this also affects whether the roof is considered frangible. There are various pros and cons of doing so.
On the section question, I don't believe API addresses it at all. It is fairly common to shop-prime roof plates prior to welding, but they will require extensive touch-up after welding, and the procedure should be approved beforehand. Typical paint specifications would spell out if this was permissible, optional, or prohibited.
