  • Patent number: 10597874
    Abstract: A body portion 100 of a front substrate 10 includes first side surfaces 105 and second side surfaces 106, each of the second side surfaces 106 being arranged at a position protruding toward the outer side along a width direction 100a than the first side surface 105. Each of the first side surfaces 105 includes a side flange 105a. A protruding width of the side flange 105a from the first side surface 105 is equal to or less than a protruding width of the second side surface 106 from the first side surface 105. A metal roofing member 1 is arranged on a roof base while abutting at least the second side surface 106 against a second side surface of other metal roofing member.
