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 or mortar -set tile systems, where the underlayment forms part of the load -path. The following
wind uplift limitations apply to underlayment systems that are not addressed in FRSA/TRI April 2012 (04-
12) and are used in foam -on or mortar -set 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 loads.

For mechanically attached Base Sheet, the maximum design pressure for the selected assembly shall meet
or exceed that required under FRSA/TRI April 2012 (04-12), Appendix A, Table 1A.
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 WD1, 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.
Exposure Limitations:
Liberty'" SBS Self -Adhering Base/Ply Sheet; StormGuard® Film Surfaced Leak Barrier; UnderRoof m HT High

Surfaced Leak Barrier shall not be left exposed for longer than 30-days after installation.
VersaShield® Fire -Resistant Roof Deck Protection, Ruberoid® Mop Granule and Ruberoid® Mop Granule FR
shall not be left exposed for longer than 180-days after installation.
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.

6.1 GAF Roof Underlayments shall be installed in accordance with GAF published installation instructions
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 Install self -adhering underlayments when ambient temperatures are minimum 45°F and rising.
6.4 All metal surfaces shall be primed with Matrix"' 307 Premium Asphalt Primer or alternate GAF accepted
ASTM D41 primer prior to application of self -adhering membranes.
6.5.1 Shall be installed in compliance with the codified requirements for ASTM D6757 underlayment in FBC
Table 1507.1.1 for the type of prepared roof covering to be installed. No hammer tacks or staples are
permitted.
6.5.2 Optional, or if required by the Authority Having Jurisdiction: Install a leak barrier of Liberty'", SBS Self -
Adhering Base/Ply Sheet; StormGuard® Film Surfaced Leak Barrier; UnderRoof"°" HT High Temperature
Leak Barrier; WeatherWatch® Mineral Surfaced or WeatherWatch® XT Mat Surfaced Leak Barrier at
vulnerable leak areas, including but not limited to eaves, valleys, rakes, skylights and dormers. At eaves
and valleys, install the leak barrier prior to installation of the underlayment. Along the rake, install the
underlayment, leaving 6 to 8-inch of the deck exposed, and then install the leak barrier over the
underlayment and exposed decking. At other areas, install the leak barrier over the underlayment.
6.6.1 Shall be installed in compliance with the codified requirements for ASTM D1970 underlayment in FBC
Table 1S07.1.1 for the type of prepared roof covering to be installed.
6.6.2 The minimum and maximum roof slopes are''/::12 and 6:12, respectively. Back -nailing is required when
slope is 1:12 or greater. Back -nailing shall consist of minimum 1-inch square or round cap nails spaced 18"
o.c. within 3-inch side laps.
6.6.3 Non -Tile Applications:
Shall be fully self -adhered to the substrates noted in Section 5.6. For direct -bond to deck applications
plywood shall be primed with Matrix' 307 Premium Asphalt Primer or alternate GAF accepted ASTM D41
primer at % to % gallon per square.
Prior to removal of release film, align sheets properly starting at the low -point of the roof (eave) with the
selvage edge upslope and for minimum 2-inch overhang at eaves and rakes. Roll out sheet and allow to
'relax' for min. 30 minutes. Remove the lower piece of release film and bond to substrate and fold the
overhanging 2-inch over the eave and nail into place 12" o.c. Remove the top piece of release film and
bond to substrate. Install primed drip edge and fasten to meet FBC Chapter 16 wind load requirements.
Install 1/8-inch troweling of Matri)ff 201 Premium SBS Flashing Cement over drip edge.
Continue upslope in a similar manner, maintaining minimum 3-inch side -laps and minimum 6-inch end -
laps. Ensure all end laps are staggered at least 18-inch apart.
Use a weighted lawn or linoleum roller to ensure complete adhesion to the substrate. Use a hand roller to
firmly bond side and end laps.
