Attachment Limitations:
For use under mechanically attached NON-TILE prepared roof coverings, attachment shall be in accordance with the manufacturer's installation instructions, but for mechanically attached underlayments or base sheets - not less than FBC 1507.1.1 or R905.1.1.
For use under tile roof systems, attachment shall be in accordance with the manufacturer's installation instructions, but for mechanically attached base sheets - not less than:
· FRSA/TRI Florida High Wind Concrete and Clay Roof Tile Installation Manual, Sixth Edition, Appendix A, Table 1 (for Two-Ply Asphalt Applied Hot Mop Underlayment)
or
· Section 5.8.3 herein (for other underlayment systems).
Wind Resistance for Underlayment Systems in Tile Roof Applications: The following wind uplift limitations apply to underlayment systems that are not prescriptive in the FRSA/TRI Florida High Wind Concrete and Clay Roof Tile Installation Manual, Sixth Edition. The Maximum Design Pressure is the result of testing for wind load resistance based on allowable wind loads, and reflects the ultimate passing pressure divided by 2 (the 2 to 1 margin of safety per FBC 1504.9 has already been applied).
Direct-to-Deck: The maximum design pressure for the selected assembly shall meet or exceed that required under FRSA/TRI Florida High Wind Concrete and Clay Roof Tile Installation Manual, Sixth Edition, Appendix A, Table 1A or the critical (highest) design pressure determined in accordance with FBC 1609 or FBC Residential Chapter 3.
Maximum Design Pressure = -442.5 psf.
