The following wind uplift limitations apply to directideck 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 Ibad 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).

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 S 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). Q 6.3 Tri-Built.Sand-R SA Shlriele Underlaviinent. Tri-Built VA HT TU_Underlayment or Tri-Built-Smooth HT S/A - 6.3.1 Shall be Installed in compliance with the requirements for ASTM D1970 underlayment in FBC Table 1S07.1.1 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 10 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 Anpiications ftri-Built S/A HT TU Underlavment onlyl 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).
