5.6.3 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 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 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.

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 WD3, FM Loss Prevention Data Sheet 1-29 and Roofing Application Standard RAS 117. Assemblies
