1 Description

POLYMAX felts consist of engineered polyester fabrics which have been saturated with roofing grade asphaltic bitumen. These felts are designed to provide long-term performance in most climatic conditions and are applied using conventional roofing equipment and methods.

POLYMAX polyester felts are available with either 180 g / meters squared or 250 g / meters squared spun bond polyester reinforcing mats. The polyester provides an inorganic mat with proven tensile strength and tear and puncture resistance.

1.3 EXECUTION

    1. PREPARATION
      1. Prepare decks according to good roofing practices; decks should be clean, dry, and free of voids or cracks; ensure concrete decks are cured.
      2. Ensure wood blocking, curbs, and cant strips are solidly set and reglets and nailing strips are in place.
      3. Wood decks: ensure deck is tightly nailed; cover splits and knot holes with galvanized sheet metal, nailed securely.
    2. INSULATION AND INSULATION OVERLAY
      1. Mechanically fasten insulation over nailable decks according to RGC Guarantee Standards.
      2. Embed insulation in a 1.5 kg / m2 (30 lb / square) mopping of hot asphalt over non-nailable decks.
      3. Install accepted insulation overlay board as an insulation overlay, where required, according to RGC Guarantee Standards.
      4. Tape insulation joints where an insulation overlay is not used.
      5. Install nailing strips on slopes over 1:12 (1" in 12") at 600 mm (24") o / c.
    3. POLYMAX 180 OR 250 THREE-PLY BUILT-UP ROOF MEMBRANE
      [qualifies for a Five (5) or Ten (10) year RoofStar Guarantee]
      1. Start at low point and at right angles to slope.
      2. Ensure asphalt temperature does not exceed +237°C (+470°F) at point of application or severe deformation of the felt may occur.
      3. Mop three plies POLYMAX 180 or 250 roofing felt in 1.5 to 1.7 kg / m2 (30 to 35 lb / square) hot asphalt per ply; ensure a puddle of asphalt precedes the roll.
      4. Firmly broom or dry mop felt surface while asphalt is hot, eliminating voids and forcing membrane into hot asphalt.
      5. Follow lap lines on felt; stagger end laps.
      6. Backnail each mopped felt where slopes exceed 1:12 (1" in 12"), 600 mm (24") o / c.
      7. Install membrane flashing of two plies POLYMAX 180 or POLYMAX 250 and one ply mineral surfaced roofing in full moppings of hot asphalt; mould POLYMAX into corners and glaze coat surface; install mineral surfaced cap sheet where membrane flashing will be exposed.
    4. POUR COAT AND GRAVEL
      1. Install asphalt pour coat and gravel according to RGC Guarantee Standards for a built-up roof membrane.
    5. PROTECTED MEMBRANE OR MODIFIED PROTECTED MEMBRANE ROOF ASSEMBLY
      1. Loose lay CGSB 51-GP-20M Type 4 extruded polystyrene rigid insulation over completed membrane; butt boards tightly together.
      2. Install filter fabric over insulation surfaces, in shingle fashion, in direction of slopes, lapping 300 mm (12").
      3. Install gravel or pavers over insulation. Refer to insulation manufacturer's latest printed recommendation for gravel rates.
