    The top of the profile. It might be prone to driping water otherwise.

    I saw the title and all I could think was that has to be uncomfortable

    should sheeting be screwed down on top or on the bottom of the grooves that are in the cladding.

    I used the box profile and there is a kinda middle groove on the bottom flat and that's were I screwed every sheet


    also went overkill as this shed is very prone to high winds and got longer tex screws and did the overlap of sheet on top.. gave sheets a great squeeze together

    No such thing as overkill when it comes to tex screwing cladding
