I'd start with metal roof manufacturer's specifications, I'm sure you'll find appropriate details to help with your installation, not rocket science, but will insure your installation is correct and warrant-able by not violating the spec's. I've done a few, 1/2 of our large horse barns, as well as some state jobs with Fabral specified standing seam metal roofing. They had some interesting spec's. secondary roof under the metal was all Grace Ice & Water Shield, they liked this material because it was self healing if a fastener penetrated it. One thing they did not like and was not allowed on job site was field cutting, problem with that was the finish on the cut edges were removed, I distinctly remember those kinds of details. Between comments here and what the manufacturer of the material you plan to use, you should get a good idea of how you want to do this. On my friends house I think we furred over the existing shingles, was kind of a roof installation get together, already started. Loading for existing framing comes to mind, so if theres layers of shingles and snow loads to consider, things like that you may want to look into, in his case its been on there 11 years now, and no problems. The other is wind loading, lift forces, you have to make sure the fastening is done correctly, and will withstand those kinds of loads, usually fine if whats existing works with the fasteners called for.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
