11.4 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.
