About the Tables
The tables on the adjacent tabs display data drawn from, and links to, Tested Assembly Reports listed by the membrane type shown on the tab. Dynamic Wind Uplift (DUR) values are shown in columns near the left side of the tables. Only the DUR and Manufacturer columns are sortable; to sort a column, click the column heading. Each row displays one test for a particular system of securement. That means that the DUR derived for that test is based on a particular pattern of fasteners or adhesive application. Most assemblies were tested with one system of securement, but some were tested with as many as four. When this is the case, the same report number will be displayed with test report names such as IKO MARS 1-A and IKO MARS 1-B. Read the test report details to see what was changed in the securement system that affected the DUR for the assembly. Table Structure and Organization Every table displays Tested Assembly report data in easy-to-read rows with drop-down buttons that display key information for each assembly (see the "try me" example below). The sample below illustrates the layout and functionality of the tables: When the Tested Assembly uses a membrane with 2 or more plies, each membrane and its options is listed in separate columns.
Note that some tests were conducted without one or more of these constituent components and may list those materials as "optional". When a material category such as "insulation overlay" is absent from the test, the drop-down menu will indicate its absence with "N/A" or as "optional". Occasionally, a missing material poses a conflict with the RoofStar Guarantee Standards. When the conflict is obvious, the Roof Assembly Summary will normally flag this with a note at the bottom of the list. Notwithstanding these notes, the reader is responsible to understand and apply the RoofStar Guarantee Standards regardless of the Tested Assembly report (see below under Tested Assemblies and RoofStar Guarantee Standards). The Roof Assembly Summary provides a quick overview of how the roof assembly is secured. This feature of the tables will be especially helpful when searching for a suitable PARS assembly, because the placement of mechanical fasteners can vary widely. Note, however, that the summaries do not list sizes, types or spacing of specific adhesives or fasteners; these details must be obtained from a careful reading of the Tested Assembly report. |
