Sheathing Installation on Roofs
ew: ZIP System Roof & Wall sheathing is composed of ZIP System panels and ZIP System seam sealing tape. ZIP System° Roof & Wall Sheathing
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
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
s 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

her debris or protrusions prior to installing or walking on the panels.
ter ensuring compliance with all OSHA and local code safety
sidelines, install ZIP System sheathing panels with the moisture
irrier surface facing outside. The long edge (8') should be oriented
�rpendicular to the framing members, and panels should be installed
th the 4' edge seams staggered a minimum of 24'.
3' spacing between square edges of all adjacent panels is recommended,
accordance with industry standards for wood sheathing. (Tongue &
oove panels are designed to self -space and do not require manual
acing on the 8' edges.)
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 verity 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
