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 3A or FBC 1609 for determination of design wind loads.

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

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.
6.5.4 Non -Tile Roof Installations:
Single Laver: Roof Slope > 4:12:
Starting at the eave, fasten the eave edge and 6-inch wide end -laps 6-inch o.c. Fasten in the field of the roll 12-
inch o.c. in two, equally spaced, staggered center rows.
Continue upslope in a similar manner, maintaining minimum 3-inch side -laps and minimum 6-inch end -laps.
Fasten 6-inch o.c. in the laps and 12-inch o.c. in two, equally spaced, staggered center rows in the field. Ensure
all end laps are staggered at least 3-feet apart.
Double Laver: 2:12 < Roof Slope <4:12:
If leak barrier (6.3.3) is not used, install a half -width sheet at the eave prior to subsequent courses. Starting at
the eave, fasten the eave edge and 6-inch wide end -laps 6-inch o.c. Fasten in the field of the roll 12-inch o.c. in
two, equally spaced, staggered center rows.
Continue upslope in a similar manner, with minimum 25.5-inch side -laps for 48-inch wide rolls (resulting in
maximum 22.5-inch exposure) or minimum 28.5-inch side -laps for 54-inch wide rolls (resulting in maximum 25.5-
inch exposure) and minimum 6-inch end -laps. Fasten 6-inch c.c. along the low edge and end laps and 12-inch o.c.
in two, equally spaced, staggered center rows in the field. Ensure all end laps are staggered at least 3-feet apart.
6.6 1 Tiger Paw" Roof Deck Protection:
