Disclosed is an insulated metal roofing system which includes channel shaped roofing panels locked together in side-by-side relationship at the upwardly projecting edges of the channel legs by means of interlocking flanges, with legs of adjacent panels in abutting relationship. In some embodiments specially configured clip members engage the roofing panels in their regions of abutment and project downwardly therefrom. Channel shaped ceiling panels are hung in side-by-side relationship on the clip members, and part or all of the space between the roofing panels and the ceiling panels is filled with insulation. The clip members are preferably constructed to provide a selection of points of connection between them and the ceiling panels to thereby provide a selection of spacings between the roofing panels and the ceiling panels. In another embodiment, the ceiling panels are connected directly to the roofing panels.

An insulatable metal roofing structure comprising: channel shaped roofing members having upstanding side legs with interlockable flanges formed at their upper ends for interlocking a series of said panels together in side-by-side relationship; said roofing members being of selected substantially uniform width; said roofing member legs having outwardly facing detent grooves formed therein and positioned to establish a tube-like detent space between adjacent interlocked roofing members; channel shaped ceiling panels having upstanding side legs, said panels being of a width such that the legs of a ceiling panel are substantially alignable with legs of superjacent roofing members; and ceiling panel suspension means including an element penetrating between legs of adjacent interlocked roofing members from below to detent lock in said detent space to thereby suspend said ceiling panels a selected distance beneath said roofing members, whereby a volume for accommodating insulation above the ceiling and beneath the roof is established.
