Norman,
Thanks for the question.
The main benefits of steel roof panels is strength, durability and cost.Steel is very strong, long-lasting in most environments and cost effective.
The main benefit of aluminum roof panels is increased corrosion resistance.
Increased corrosion resistance is only needed in very corrosive environments though.
I am not aware of information on the difference in noise between steel and aluminum roof panels. I would expect the difference to be minimal.
Regards,
David Stermer

What are the pros/cons of Aluminum and Steel roofs. Is noise a factor? Is steel rusting a problem?
