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 tile systems,where
the underlayment forms part.of the load-path. The following wind uplift limitations apply to direct=deck
underlayrhent systems that:are not addressed in FRSA/TRI April 2012(04-12) and ate 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 FBC 1609 for determination of design wind pressures.
5.6:4.1. Maximum Design Pressure--45.0:gsf.
Deck: Min.15/32-inch plywood to meet project requirements to satisfaction of AHJ.
Primer: (Optional).ASTM D41
Underlayment: Tri-Built S/A HTTU Underlayment;self-adhered.

5.7 Exposure Limitations:
.51.1 Tri-Built.Sand-R•SA Shingle Underlayment or Tri-Built Smooth HTS/A Underlayment,shall not be left
exposed for longer than 30-days after'installation
5,7.2 Tri-Built S/A HTTU Underlayment shall not.be left exposed for longer than 1.80-days after installation.
6 INSTALLATION:
6.1 TRI=BUILT.Roof Underlayments°shall be installed in accordance with TRI-BUILT published installation
requirements: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).

Underlayment:
6.3.1 Shall be installed in compliance with the requirements for ASTM D1970 underlayment in FBC Sections
1507 for the type of prepared roof covering to be installed..
6:3:2 Non-Tile applications;
While priming is optional,TRI-BUILT recommends'prim ing the deck if the final roof cover is not slated for
installation within 24 hours:.
Apply sheet parallel to the roof edge. Rollout approximately 10 ft of membrane and peel back the first 3
ft of release film.
Adhere the exposed part to the substrate and unroll the remaining membrane as far as possible.
Once the entire length of membrane is in place, peel-off the release film•diagonally while holding the
membrane tight. Firmly roll,.broom or hand-press the membrane into place to achieve a bond.
Horizontal seams should be minimum 3-inches, configured to shed water. Vertical seams should be 6-
inches and staggered not less than 2-ft from vertical seams in the course below,sealed in accordance with
TRI-BUILT requirements.

When installing at slopes above 8:12,TRI-BUILT recommends back-nailing in the overlap area at the top of
the sheet at 12-inch ox.
For Valleys and Ridges: Cut underlayment into 4 to 6'foot lengths.Peel the release paper and center sheet
over valley or ridge. Drape and press sheet into place, working from the center of the valley or ridge in
each direction.. For valleys,.apply the sheet starting at the lowest point and work upward.

Reference is made to 'FRSA/TRI April :2012 (04-12) Installation Manual :and Table.1 herein, using the
instructions noted above asa guideline.
For foam-on tile applications, reference is made to Section S:6.4 herein for wind resistance limitations that
fall outside the scope of FRSA/TRI Aprill42012(04-12).
Tile: shall be loaded and staged in a .manner that prevents tile slippage and/or damage to the
underlayment.

5.6.4 Wind Resistance for Underlayment Systems in Foam=On Tile Applications: FRSA/TRI April 2012 (0442)
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 direct-deck
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 FBC 1609 for determination of design wind pressures.
5.6.4.1 Maximum Design Pressure=-45.0 psf.
Deck: Min.15/32-inch plywood to meet project requirements to satisfaction of AHJ.
Primer: (Optional)ASTM D41
Underlayment: Tri-Built S/A HTTU Underlayment;self-adhered.
5.6.4.2 Maximum Design Pressure= 67.5 psf.
Deck:. Structural concrete to meet project requirements to satisfaction of AHJ.
Primer: Soprema Elastocol 600c
Underlayment: Tri-Built S/A HT TU Underlaymenti.self-adhered.
5.6.4:3 Maximum Design Pressure=-60.0 psf.
Deck: Min.19/32-inch plywood to meet project requirements to:satisfaction of AHJ.
Base Sheet: Soprema Sopra-G or Modified Sopra-G mechanically attached with nails (FBC 1517.5.1)
and tin caps(FBC 1517:5:2)spaced.6-inch o.c..atthe 4-inch laps and 6-inch o.c.in three,
equally spaced rows in theicenter of the sheet.
Underlayment: Tri-Built S/A HT TU Underlayment self-adhered.
5:7 Exposure Limitations:
5:7:1 Tri-Built Sand-R SA Shingle Underlayment or Tri-Built Smooth HT'S/A Underlayment shall not be left
exposed for longer than 30-days after installation
5.7..2 Tri-Built S/A`HT TU Underlayment shall not be left exposed for.longer than 180-days after installation.
6. INSTALLATION:
6.1 TRI-BUILT Roof Underlayments shall be installed in accordance with TRI-BUILT published installation
requirements 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
toremove any dust and debris prior to application,and.prime:the substrate(if applicable).
6.3 Tri-Built Sand-R SA Shingle'Underlayment,Tri-Built S/A HT TU Underlayment or Tri-Built Smooth:HT S/A
Underlayment:
6.3.11 Shall be installed in compliance with the requirements for ASTM D1970 underlayment in FBC Sections
1507 for the type of prepared roof covering to be.installed.
6.3:2 Non-Tile applications:
While priming is optional,TRI-BUILT recommends priming the deck if the final roof cover is not slated for
installation within 24 hours:.
Apply sheet parallel to the roof edge. Roll out approximately 10 ft of membrane and peel back the first 3
ft of release film.
Adhere the exposed part to the substrate-and unroll the remaining membrane as far as possible.
Once the.entire length of membrane is in place, peel-off the release film:diagonally while. holding the
membrane tight,. Firmly roll,.broorh or hand-press the menib.ra.ne into place to achieve a bond.
Horizontal seams should be minimum.3'-inches,configured to'shed water. Vertical;seams should be.6-
inches and staggered not less than 2-ft from vertical seams in the course below,.sealed in:accordance with
TRI-BUILT requirements.

When installing at slopes above 8:12,TRI=BUILT recommends back(nailing in the overlap area at the top of
the sheet at 127inch o.c.
For Valleys and Ridges: Cut underlayment into 4 to 6 foot lengths.Peel the release paper and center sheet
over valley or ridge. Drape and press sheet into place, working from the.center of the valley or ridge in
each direction. For valleys,applythe sheet starting at the lowest point and work upward.
6:3.3 Tike Applications(Tri-Built S/A HT TU Underlayment only):
Reference is made to :FRSA/TRi April 2,012 (04-12) Installation Manual .and Table 1 herein, using the
instructions noted above as a guideline.
For foam-on tile applications,reference is made to Section•5.6.4 herein for wind resistance limitationsthat
fall outside the scope of FRSA/TRI April'2012(04-12).
Tile shall be loaded and staged in a manner that prevents tile slippage and/or damage to the
underlayment:
