ZIP System® Sheathing Installation on Roofs
Overview: ZIP System Roof&Wall sheathing is composed of ZIP System panels and ZIP System seam sealing tape.ZIP Systems Roof&Wall Sheathing
panels should be fully installed before the seam sealing tape is applied.In general,the ZIP System roof sheathing panels should be installed from the lowest point
on the roof to the highest.It is at the discretion of the installer whether to apply tape from the top down or from the bottom up, However,working from the highest
sections of the roof and working down will minimize foot traffic on the tape.The following installation steps are presented as guidelines and a general outline of
the installation process.These are manufacturer installation recommendations—please visit zipsystem.com for a library of flashing and installation details.You are
fully and solely responsible for all safety requirements.Good construction and safety practices should be followed at all times.
Step 1.
Ensure that the panel surface is dry and clean of any nails,sawdust,or
other debris or protrusions prior to installing or walking on the panels.
After ensuring compliance with all OSHA and local code safety
guidelines, install ZIP System sheathing panels with the moisture
barrier surface facing outside.The long edge (8') should be oriented
perpendicular to the framing members,and panels should be installed
with the 4'edge seams staggered a minimum of 24". M a
1/8'spacing between square edges of all adjacent panels is recommended,
in accordance with industry standards for wood sheathing. (Tongue&
Groove panels are designed to self-space and do not require manual a'Panel Edges 4'Panel Edges

require manual gapping
along the 8'edges.
Step 2.
Ensure that ZIP System panels span at least three framing members and
a framing member supports the entire 4'edge of the panels.
Fasten the ZIP System Roof & Wall sheathing panel to the framing
members with code approved fasteners spaced at the appropriate
edge and intermediate spacing. It is the responsibility of the general
contractor to verify proper fastener type and spacing prior to installation.
Apply the fasteners 3/8"from the panel ends and comers.
An ideal installation would be where fastener heads are flush with the
panel surface. However,due to variations in materials and limitations
on equipment, this may be difficult to achieve in some situations. It
is not required to tape over overdriven fasteners unless the fastener
head creates a hole through the entire panel thickness. Please see
the technical tip,"Overdriven Fasteners in ZIP System Roof and Wall
Sheathing,"for more information.
Step 3.
Install temporary toe boards as necessary when applying the ZIP System
sheathing panels up the slope of the roof planes.

ZIP Systemm Tape Installation - Roof Panel Seams
Apply ZIP System tape after all ZIP System Roof&Wall sheathing panels are fully fastened to roof-framing members.Only ZIP System tape should be used to
seal the seams of ZIP System panels.Ensure that the panel surfaces are dry and free of any nails,sawdust and other debris,or protrusions.Avoid stepping
on tape in high temperature environments.ZIP System tape is a contact tape that requires pressure for an adequate seal.
Step 1.
- Apply ZIP System tape to every vertical and horizontal panel seam. It is
at the discretion of the installer whether to apply tape from the top down
or from the bottom up. However,working,from the highest sections of
the roof and working down will minimize foot traffic on the tape.
- Ensure that the tape is centered over the seam within+/-1/2"to provide
adequate coverage and to ensure that wrinkles in the tape are minimized.
- Ensure that tape lengths are continuous across the 8'horizontal edge
of the panels.If splices are unavoidable,create an overlapping splice
of at least 3.Apply moderate pressure onto the surface of the tape to
ensure a secure bond between the panel and the tape.
- Use ZIP System tape gun or tape roller to apply pressure to the tape
and smooth out any wrinkles.
Take special care to remove any voids and/or trapped air at splice
areas and T-joints.
Step 2.
- For valley areas of framing,we recommend you use 6"wide ZIP System
tape.This tape is wider than panel seam tape and is designed to give you
optimal protection in valley areas.
- Starting from the bottom and working your way up,apply one continuous
piece of 6"tape so that the center of the tape is over the valley seam.
- Use the tape gun or tape roller to apply pressure to the tape to ensure
proper contact with the panel and to eliminate any wrinkles that might
have occurred in the tape.Take special care to seat tape completely
into the valley.
Note:
It is Important to pay extra attention to valley taping as water is
directed toward the valleys during rain events.
Self-adhering ice and water barriers may be required by code.ZIP
System tape is not considered a replacement for self-adhering ice
and water barriers.Therefore,when self-adhering ice and water
barriers are required,they should be installed in addition to ZIP
System tape.

Step 4.
- To provide temporary weather protection to roof/wall intersections
of dormers or other wood-sheathed projections, apply 2" of the tape
width up the vertical projection from where it intersects with the roof.
The remaining tape width can be adhered to the.ZIP System roof
sheathing panels.
- Use the tape gun or tape roller to apply pressure to the tape and smooth
out any wrinkles.
Step 5.
Install ZIP System tape over hips and ridges by centering the tape over
the peak seam.Apply tape in sufficient length to completely extend the
length of the hip or ridge.
Starting from the lowest point of the hip and working up,press tape into
place keeping tape centered over the hip.Apply moderate pressure
onto the surface of the tape to ensure a secure bond between the panel
and the tape.
Cut ridge tape as required for ventilation prior to installing ridge vent.
Step 6.
Tape over toe board nail holes once the toe boards are removed,working
from the highest toe boards to the lowest.

process.These are manufacturer installation recommendations—please visit zipsystem.com for a library of flashing and installation details.You are fully and
solely responsible for all safety requirements.Good construction and safety practices should be followed at all times.
Step 1. Install ZIP System Roof & Wall sheathing panels positioned
with the water-resistive barrier facing outside.The panels may
be installed with the long side of the panel oriented either
horizontally or vertically to the framing members. Walls that are
designed to resist lateral shear forces and sheathed with wood
structural panels typically require solid framing or blocking behind
all panel edges. If oriented horizontally, block horizontal joints if
wall is designed for bracing or as.a shear wall.

An ideal installation would be where fastener heads are flush with
the panel surface. However, due to variations in materials and
limitations on equipment, this may be difficult to achieve in some
situations. It is not required to tape over overdriven fasteners
unless the fastener head creates a hole through the entire panel

ZIP System"' Tape Installation - Wall Panel Seams
Apply ZIP System tape after all ZIP System Roof&Wall sheathing panels are fully fastened to wall-framing members.Only ZIP System tape should be used
to seal the seams of ZIP System panels. Ensure that the panel surface is dry and free of sawdust and dirt prior to taping.ZIP System tape is a contact
tape that requires pressure for an adequate seal.
Step 1. Tape all seams using ZIP System tape. Ensure that the tape
is centered over the seam within +/- 112" to provide adequate
coverage and that wrinkles in tape are minimal.
Use the ZIP System tape gun or roller to apply pressure to the tape
and smooth out any wrinkles.
Step 2. Wherever tape splices occur at a horizontal or vertical seam,create
an overlapping splice of at least 3".
At T-joints,the tape pieces should overlap by at least 1".Apply
moderate pressure onto the surface of the tape to ensure a secure
bond between the panel and the tape.
