For installations under foam -on tile systems (Tri-Buik S/A HT TU Underlayment only), base layer shall be attached per minimum requirements of FRSA/TRI April 2012 (04- 12). 5.6.4 Wind Resistance for Underlayment Systems in Foam -On Tile Applications: FRSA/TRI April 2012 (04-12) does not address wind uplift resistance of all underlayment systems beneath foam -on tile systems, where the underlayment forms part of the load -path. The following wind uplift limitations apply to direct -deck underlayment systems that are not addressed in FRSA/TRI April 2012 (04-12) and are used in foam -on tile applications. 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). Refer to FRSA/TRI April 2012 (04-12), Appendix A, Table 1A or FBC 1609 for determination of design wind pressures. #1 Maximum Design Pressure = -45.0 osf: Deck: Min. 15/32-inch plywood to meet project requirements to satisfaction of Authority Having Jurisdiction. Primer: (Optional) ASTM D41 or RESISTO EXTERIOR PRIMER Underlayment: Tri-Built S/A HT TU Underlayment, self -adhered. #2 Maximum Design Pressure = -67.5 osf: Deck: Structural concrete to meet project requirements to satisfaction of Authority Having Jurisdiction. Primer: Soprema Elastocol 600c Underlayment: Tri-Bulk S/A HT TU Underlayment, self -adhered. #3 Maximum Design Pressure=-150.0 osf: Deck: Min. 15/32-inch APA-rated BCX plywood (may be installed C-side up) to meet project requirements to satisfaction of Authority Having Jurisdiction. Deck Preparation: Plywood shall be thoroughly cleaned to remove dust and debris that may inhibit adhesion. All sheathing fasteners shall be driven flush with the surface. All sharp splinters and wood projections shall be removed/sanded. Primer: (Optional) RESISTO EXTERIOR PRIMER Underlayment: Tri-Buik S/A HT TU Underlayment self -adhered, shall be thoroughly roll using hand roller and/or weighted roller to ensure there are no voids, and ensure there are no voids/bridging at side and end -laps. #4 Maximum Design Pressure = -60.0 osf: Deck: Min. 19/32-inch plywood to meet project requirements to satisfaction of Authority Having Jurisdiction. Base Sheet: Soprema Sopra-G or Modified Sopra-G mechanically attached with nails (FBC 1517.5.1) and tin caps (FBC 1517.5.2) spaced 6-inch o.c. at the flinch laps and 6-inch o.c. in three, equally spaced rows in the center of the sheet.

Alternatively, the maximum design pressure for the selected assembly shall meet or exceed the Zone 1 design pressure determined in accordance with FBC 1609. In this case, Zones 2 and 3 shall employ an attachment density designed by a qualified design professional to resist the elevated pressure criteria. Commonly used methods are ANSI/SPRI WDS, FM Loss Prevention Data Sheet 1-29 and Roofing Application Standard RAS 117. Assemblies marked with an asterisk' carry the limitations set forth in Section 2.2.10.1 of FM Loss Prevention Data Sheet 1-29 (January 2016) for Zone 2/3 enhancements. 5.7 Exposure Limitations: Tri-Buik Sand-R SA Shingle Underlayment or Tri-Built Smooth HT S/A Underlayment shall not be left exposed for longer than 30-days after installation Tri-Buik S/A HTTU Underlayment shall not be left exposed for longer than 180-days after installation. 5.8 Tile Slippage Limitations (TAS 103 per FRSA/TRI April 2012 (04-12)): When loading roof tiles on the underlayment in direct -deck tile assemblies, the maximum roof slope shall be as follows. These slope limitations can only be exceeded by using battens during loading of the roof tiles.

INSTALLATION: 6.1 TRI-BUILT Roof Underlayments shall be installed in accordance with TRI-BUILT Materials Group, LLC published installation requirements subject to the Limitations set forth in Section 5 herein and the specifics noted below. 6.2 Re -fasten any loose decking panels, and check for protruding nail heads. Sweep the substrate thoroughly to remove any dust and debris prior to application, and prime the substrate (if applicable). 6.3 Tri-Built Sand-R SA Shingle Underlavment. Tri-Built 5/A HT TU Underlavment or Tri-Built Smooth HT S/A Underlayment: 6.3.1 Shall be installed in compliance with the requirements for ASTM D1970 underlayment in FBC Table 2507.2.1 for the type of prepared roof covering to be installed. 6.3.2 Non -Tile applications: While priming is optional, TRI-BUILT Materials Group, LLC recommends priming the deck if the final roof cover is not slated for installation within 24 hours. Apply sheet parallel to the roof edge. Roll out approximately SO ft of membrane and peel back the first 3 ft of release film. Adhere the exposed part to the substrate and unroll the remaining membrane as far as possible. Once the entire length of membrane is in place, peel -off the release film diagonally while holding the membrane tight. Firmly roll, broom or hand -press the membrane into place to achieve a bond. Horizontal seams should be minimum 3-inches, configured to shed water. Vertical seams should be 6- inches and staggered not less than 2-ft from vertical seams in the course below, sealed in accordance with TRI-BUILT Materials Group, LLC requirements. When installing at slopes above 8:12, TRI-BUILT Materials Group, LLC recommends back -nailing in the overlap area at the top of the sheet at 12-inch o.c. For Valleys and Ridges: Cut underlayment into 4 to 6 foot lengths. Peel the release paper and center sheet over valley or ridge. Drape and press sheet into place, working from the center of the valley or ridge in each direction. For valleys, apply the sheet starting at the lowest point and work upward. 6.3.3 Tile Applications (Tri-Built 5/A HT TU Underlavment only): Reference is made to FRSA/TRI April 2012 (04-12) Installation Manual and Table 1 herein, using the instructions noted above as a guideline. For foam -on tile applications, reference is made to Section 5.6.4 herein for wind resistance limitations that fall outside the scope of FRSA/TRI April 2012 (04-12). Tile shall be loaded and staged in a manner that prevents tile slippage and/or damage to the underlayment. See Table 2 herein, and TRI-BUILT Materials Group, LLC published requirements for tile staging. 7.
