PREFACE
The Tile Roofing Industry Alliance (TRI) in partnership with the Florida Roofing and Sheet Metal Contractors
Association, Inc. (FRSA) have been working together for over two decades on the development of installation
manuals that represent proper installation practices, industry standards and the latest code requirements of
roof tiles for the Florida market.
It was the consensus of a joint committee that we should re-write this manual in a way that addresses the
latest wind codes, eliminates system designations, recognizes the latest products. reduces redundancy, adds
drawings and paints a clear picture that provides clarity for contractors and inspectors regarding which prod-
ucts and processes are acceptable in the High Wind regions. The committee also adopted the recommen-
dations of several premium upgraded products and enhanced installation practices to improve the long-term
performance of the roofing systems. The culmination of the committee's efforts led to the creation of this 6th
Edition Florida High Wind Concrete and Clay Tile Installation Manual for High Wind Applications in Florida.
LIMITATIONS ON USE AND DISCLAIMER FOR THE FRSA-TRI INSTALLATION GUIDE
These tile guidelines are a consensus document developed by a joint committee of the Florida Roofing and
Sheet Metal Contractors Association, Inc. (FRSA) and the Florida Committee of the Tile Roofing Industry Alli-
ance (TRI). It is important to recognize that these recommendations are neither warranties, explicit or implicit,
or representative of the only method by which a tile system can be installed. Rather, they try to summarize for
the designer. applicator or developer good roofing practices and some of the industry standards for the instal-
lation of the roof tiles which have been developed over time from actual trade practice and the requirements of
various building code agencies. These guidelines may not be applicable in all geographical areas. It is the re-
sponsibility of those individuals who are referring to these guidelines to independently research and determine
which method is best for their particular project.
INTRODUCTION
The recommendations contained herein address concrete and clay tile installations in Florida; however these
recommendations may be utilized in other geographical areas designated as a High Wind region. The TRI
offers installation manuals for basic Climate regions as well as Cold and Snow regions. For more information,
visit the TRI website www.tileroofing.org or email info@tileroofing.org.
The manner in which tile roofs are installed in High Wind regions makes them a highly-effective water shed-
ding assembly that affords years of service and protection. The effectiveness of a tile roof system as a weather
resistant assembly depends upon the proper installation of the tile roof components, because installing them
properly is critical to the performance of the installed system.
It should be noted that several formatting changes have been continued in this revision. First, the table for
underlayment and flashings (see page 6) addresses the compatibility of one-ply and two-ply underlayments,
attachment methods and flashing types, as well as the possible need for additional flashings and sealants. The
second table is for hip and ridge attachment methods (see page 14) and denotes the various approved meth-
ods for installing hip and ridge tiles, as well as the compatible weather blocking treatments. The implementa-
tion of these tables will help reduce the likelihood of the inadvertent "mixing of systems," which can lead to a
reduction in the life span of a tile roof system.
This manual has been divided into two sections of content. The first contains text and tables; the second
contains detailed drawings that supplement the text. Several new drawings have been added, while some that
were found to be redundant or unnecessary in prior manuals were eliminated.
Designers should be familiar with local codes and wind zone designations when choosing a tile roof system.
For more information; please contact the Tile Roofing Industry Alliance (TRI) or the Florida Roofing and Sheet
Metal Contractors Association, Inc. (FRSA). Initial publication date 9/18, effective code date 12/31/20.

SINGLE-PLY SYSTEM
General —Single-ply Systems or One-ply are those methods of application where a self-adhered underlayment
is applied directly to the deck. Minimum thickness of any self-adhered underlayment shall be 40 mil SBS, APP
or Approved Equal. Valley and wall metals shall be standard or pre-formed. When using battens, pre-formed
metals and transitional flashing are required. Transitional flashings are optional when battens are not used.

METAL FLASHINGS
General— Each roof parameter is unique and requires that the proper metals be used with the correct combi-

in or sandwiched between a separator sheet and the self-adhered underlayment. Transitional flashings are

HIP AND RIDGE INSTALLATION
General—The following recommendations are only for products approved by the FBC and tested according to
SSTD 11-99 via third-party independent FBC approved laboratories. They will determine the wind uplift limita-
tions of the various hip and ridge attachment methods or by installation methods currently recognized in the
High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) section of the FBC. There are three basic attachment methods of hip
and ridge tiles: mechanical attachment, adhesive-set and mortar-set attachment systems. The minimum head-
lap when installing hip and ridge tiles is 2" unless restricted by product design. Any exposed fasteners should
be covered with a UV resistant sealant.
Field Tile Cuts at Hip or Ridge—All cut field tiles adjacent to a hip or ridge shall be attached to the cap sheet
and/or the adjacent tile with an approved adhesive, mortar or mechanical fasteners and adhesive.
The following table outlines the different parameters for the hip and ridge attachment options. See Drawings
FHW-15, FHW-16 and FHW-17.
