A roof assembly in which overlapping edges of adjacent panel members are joinable in an assembled mode to provide a seam having resistance to sidelap shear, the roof assembly comprising panels having a female sidelap along one edge and a male sidelap along the opposite edge, the female sidelap having a male insertion cavity and a leg member with a female retaining groove. The male sidelap, engageable in the male insertion cavity of an adjacent panel, has a tang lockingly disposed in the female retaining groove in folded tight adjacency to form a standing seam between panels. The panels are interconnected via backer plate fasteners to increase resistance to side slipping under wind uplift.
