Low-Slope Roofing - 3 Principal components • Weatherproofing—> The weatherproofing component is the most important element because it keeps water from entering a roof assembly. • Reinforcement—> Reinforcement adds strength, puncture resistance and dimensional stability to a membrane. • Surfacing—> Surfacing is the component that protects the weatherproofing and reinforcement from sunlight and weather.Other benefits such as increased fire resistance, improved traffic and hail resistance, and increased solar reflectivity.
