About this file

This is a specification document for Modified Bituminous Membrane Roofing, outlining requirements for a cold-applied 2-ply asphalt roofing system installation. The specification establishes comprehensive technical standards, material requirements, installation procedures, and quality assurance measures for roofing contractors and manufacturers.

The roofing system consists of a base ply sheet (StressBase 80, 80 mil SBS rubber modified) bonded with interply adhesive (Weatherking), topped with a modified cap ply sheet (OptiMax FR Mineral, 145 mil mineral surfaced with fire retardant characteristics). Flashing components use the same base ply with matching cap ply materials and flashing-specific adhesive. Installation requires cold application at temperatures above 40-45 degrees Fahrenheit, with base sheets cut into 18-foot lengths and lapped 8 inches with 12-inch staggered end laps. The system must achieve UL, FM, or WH Class A fire ratings and comply with ASCE 7 wind load design standards (Method 2 for Components and Cladding), Energy Star reflectivity requirements, and LEED heat island mitigation criteria. Manufacturer qualifications require ISO 9001 certification and minimum 12 years documented experience; installer qualifications mandate 5 years experience and certified pre-approved contractor status with full-time on-site supervision. Pre-installation meetings must occur minimum two weeks prior to work commencement. Submittals include product data sheets, shop drawings with installation details, design pressure calculations, fire compliance certificates, independent test reports confirming ASTM D5147 compliance, and verification samples for each membrane ply product.

PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 EXAMINATION

A. Do not begin installation until substrates have been properly prepared.

B. Inspect and approve the deck condition, slopes and fastener backing if applicable, parapet walls, expansion joints, roof drains, stack vents, vent outlets, nailers and surfaces and elements.

C. Verify that work penetrating the roof deck, or which may otherwise affect the roofing, has been properly completed.

D. If substrate preparation and other conditions are the responsibility of another installer, notify Architect of unsatisfactory preparation before proceeding.

3.2 PREPARATION

A. General: Clean surfaces thoroughly prior to installation.

1. Prepare surfaces using the methods recommended by the manufacturer for achieving the best result for the substrate under the project conditions.

2. Fill substrate surface voids that are greater than 1/4 inch wide with an acceptable fill material.

3. Roof surface to receive roofing system shall be smooth, clean, free from loose gravel, dirt and debris, dry and structurally sound.

4. Wherever necessary, all surfaces to receive roofing materials shall be power broom and vacuumed to remove debris and loose matter prior to starting work.

5. Do not apply roofing during inclement weather. Do not apply roofing membrane to damp, frozen, dirty, or dusty surfaces.

6. Fasteners and plates for fastening components mechanically to the substrate shall provide a minimum pull-out capacity of 300 lbs. (136 k) per fastener. Base or ply sheets attached with cap nails require a minimum pullout capacity of 40 lb. per nail.

7. Prime decks where required, in accordance with requirements and recommendations of the primer and deck manufacturer.

3.3 INSTALLATION - GENERAL

A. Install modified bitumen membranes and flashings in accordance with manufacturer's instructions and with the recommendations provided by the National Roofing Contractors Association's Roofing & Waterproofing Manual, the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association, and applicable codes.

B. General: Avoid installation of modified bitumen membranes at temperatures lower than 40- 45 degrees F. When work at such temperatures unavoidable use the following precautions:

1. Take extra care during cold weather installation and when ambient temperatures are affected by wind or humidity, to ensure adequate bonding is achieved between the surfaces to be joined. Use extra care at material seam welds and where adhesion of the applied product to the appropriately prepared substrate as the substrate can be affected by such temperature constraints as well.

2. Unrolling of cold materials, under low ambient conditions must be avoided to prevent the likelihood of unnecessary stress cracking. Rolls must be at least 40 degrees F at the time of application. If the membrane roll becomes stiff or difficult to install, it must be replaced with roll from a heated storage area.

C. Commence installation of the roofing system at the lowest point of the roof (or roof area), working up the slope toward the highest point. Lap sheets shingle fashion so as to constantly shed water

D. All slopes greater than 2:12 require back-nailing to prevent slippage of the ply sheets. Use ring or spiral-shank 1 inch cap nails, or screws and plates at a rate of 1 fastener per ply (including the membrane) at each insulation stop. Place insulation stops at 16 ft o.c. for slopes less than 3:12 and 4 feet o.c. for slopes greater than 3:12. On non-insulated systems, nail each ply directly into the deck at the rate specified above. When slope exceeds 2:12, install all plies parallel to the slope (strapping) to facilitate backnailing. Install 4 additional fasteners at the upper edge of the membrane when strapping the plies.

3.4 INSTALLATION COLD APPLIED ROOF SYSTEM

A. Base Ply: Cut base ply sheets into 18 foot lengths and allow plies to relax before installing.

Install base sheet in Interply Adhesive: applied at the rate required by the manufacturer.

Shingle in proper direction to shed water on each large area of roofing.

1. Lap ply sheet ends 8 inches. Stagger end laps 12 inches minimum.

2. Solidly bond to the substrate and adjacent ply with specified cold adhesive at the rate of 2 to 2-1/2 gallons per 100 square feet.

3. Roll must push a puddle of adhesive in front of it with adhesive slightly visible at all side laps. Use care to eliminate air entrapment under the membrane.

4. Install subsequent rolls of modified across the roof as above with a minimum of 4 inch side laps and 8 inch staggered end laps. Lay modified membrane in the same direction as the underlayers but the laps shall not coincide with the laps of the base layers.

5. Extend plies 2 inches beyond top edges of cants at wall and projection bases.

6. Install base flashing ply to all perimeter and projection details.

7. Allow the one ply of base sheet to cure at least 30 minutes before installing the modified membrane. However, the modified membrane must be installed the same day as the base plies.

B. Modified Cap Ply(s): Cut cap ply sheets into 18 foot lengths and allow plies to relax before installing. Install in interplay adhesive applied at the rate required by the manufacturer.

Shingle sheets uniformly over the prepared substrate to achieve the number of plys specified. Shingle in proper direction to shed water on each large area of roofing.
