Accepted Materials for a RoofStar Guarantee

The tables and products shown below provide basic material data and links to more information about the materials, including manufacturers' published Technical Data sheets, but this information is not intended for use as a comparison of material performance or quality. It is the sole responsibility of the Design Authority to assess the performance capability and material suitability for specific design requirements.

Some of the data in the table below may provide the reader with links to other pages and resources in this Manual which are intended to assist the Design Authority in designing roof systems to satisfy the BC Building Code and RoofStar Guarantee Standards for Securing the Roof Assembly. The reader may search this additional information in one of two ways: by clicking a hyperlink below (MARS, AARS or PARS - these will take the reader to separate tables listing all the similar membranes that have been tested by a Qualified Test Facility) or by going directly to these pages to view the summary tables. These can be found by clicking on any of the following links:

  • MARS Tested Systems
  • AARS Tested Systems
  • PARS Tested Systems

Each of these pages will provide drop-down tables that list the various membranes, by their type, and provide additional links to other related materials.

The materials listed are those which have been accepted by the RoofStar Guarantee Program (RCABC Guarantee Corp., or RGC) for use in a roof or grade-level waterproofing system that will qualify for a RoofStar Guarantee. The acceptance of these materials by the RGC (RoofStar Guarantee Program) in no way reflects on the quality or performance of other materials not listed.

The materials and guideline specifications are listed under the name of the manufacturer and/or supplier of the primary membrane material, with the exception of BUR membranes for which the reader will find RoofStar Guarantee Program guidelines on traditional built-up roofing systems (BUR) incorporating organic and glass felt primary membranes.
