We used a lag stud assembly from Unirac, with the dreaded L foot at
the top of the corrugated ridge, & plenty of pooky under. The driver
tool for the stud wasn't very useful, and because the stud was
stainless we had a hard time driving it all the way in, without over
torquing. I'd use a larger diameter, non stainless stud next time.
THis was on a horse shed, I wouldn't mess with the thin corrugated
roofing at all on a residence. Its so thin it bends just walking on
it. There is some heavier gauge corrugated roofing that is nice.
My rule, is if the roof is already questionable, I won't touch it if
its a residence.

Wrenches,
For those of you in the opinion of using standoffs instead of L-feet,
what do you do on corrugated metal roofs? I'm seeing a lot of these in
both residential and commercial buildings.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
