5. Low Slope - Disadvantages • water drains slowly • standing water can cause deterioration • structural movement - tear the membrane.

6. Low Slope - Advantages • can cover building of any horz. dimension can serve as • balconies, decks, patios, landscaped gardens.

8. Item Spotted: Flat roof Observations: This is not a good roof design for wet climates. There is constantly puddles of water on the top of this roof. Location: PEB, WSU Campus Name: Kallen Hawthorne ID# 10596914

9. Steep Slope • drains quickly • can be covered with roofing material of small overlapping units - shingles of wood - slate - artificial composition - tiles of fired clay or concrete - bundles of reeds (thatch).

10. Steep Slope • Thermal expansion / contraction minimized • Movement in structure is minimized - by the ability of small units to move with - respect to one another. • Water vapor vents from the interior through the loose joints in the roofing material.

11. Item Spotted: A combination of a flat and gamble roof Observations: This building has a very interesting skyline because of the combination roof. However if one was to look closely at the picture, one con see puddles of standing water. Location: Smith Gym, WSU Campus Name: Kallen Hawthorne ID# 10596914

15. LOW SLOPE ROOF(not FLAT) < 3:12 pitch • Min Slope   • 1/8” per 1’-0” or 1:100 • 1/4” per 1’-0” or 1:50

16. Low < 3:12 pitch 12 3 1/4

17. Roof Slope • Slope Roof to direct water towards drainage points - counter-acting structural deflection. • Depending on size of deck expansion joints should be provided to - control expansion and contraction and - satisfy requirements of membrane. • Membrane should be laid on flat surface.

18. FLAT ROOF - COMPONENTS  • DECK • THERMAL INSULATION • VAPOR RETARDER • MEMBRANE • FLASHINGS • DRAINAGE COMPONENTS

19. Deck:Types of structural deck used for low slope roof • Plywood over wood joists • Solid wood decking over heavy timber framing • Corrugated steel decking • Panels of wood fiber bonded together with portland cement • Poured gypsum over insulating formboard • Sitecast concrete and precast concrete

22. Insulating Deck Boards – wood/glass fibers Truss Tee Purlins + slab of gypsum/lt wt conc

23. Thermal Insulation • Below the Deck • Between Deck + Membrane • Above the Membrane

24. Thermal Insulation: Below the Deck • Leaves the deck and membrane exposed to full range of temperature. • Batt insulation of glass fiber or mineral fiber between wood joists - or on top of a suspended ceiling assembly. • Vapor retarder below insulation** (Vapor retarder on warm side of insulation)

25. Insulation: Between Deck and Membrane • Rigid panels of insulation, light weight concrete. • Protects deck from temperature extremes. • Membrane subjected to extreme temperature variations. • Moisture trapped in insulation can damage insulation and deck. • Place vapor retarded on inside of insulation and vent insulation to release moisture.

26. Insulation: Above the Membrane • Membrane protected - extremes of temperature. • Membrane on warm side of insulation - immune to vapor blistering. • Insulation must be a material which is not effected by wet and will not disintegrate - extruded polystyrene board • Insulation board adhered in bed of hot asphalt or laid loose. • Layer of ballast laid over insulation.

27. Insulation: Above the Membrane • Ballast - crushed stone - thin concrete layer factory laminated to upper surface of insulation board - interlocking concrete blocks. • Membrane ages little protected from sunlight and temperature extremes - despite presence of moisture. • Rigid insulation - mechanical fix to deck preferable.

28. Insulation above the Membrane: Other names for this system • Inverted roof • Upside down roof • Protected membrane roof, +- 20years old

29. Vapor Retarder • 2 sheets asphalt saturated roofing felt • In cold climate on warm side of insulation.** • In hot humid climate/with air conditioning - on outer side of insulation**

30. Membrane • Built up roof membrane • Single-ply roof membrane • Fluid-applied roof membrane

31. Built-up membrane • 2-4 Layers/ plies of felt asphalt impregnated, bedded in bitumen felt: cellulose fibers/glass fibers +asphalt • Felt laminated in overlapping layers • Layer of aggregate (crushed stone)

32. Built-Up Membrane • Bitumen - asphalt derived • For low pitch roofs - coal tar bitumen or coal-tar pitch used- - greater resistance to standing water • Asphalt and coal tar are applied hot

33. Aggregate • Insulation • Felt • Conc. Deck • Aggregate • Felt • Insulation x 2 • Metal Deck

34. 4 ply felt + hot asphalt

35. Single Ply Roof membrane • Single layer • More elastic - less cracking/tearing • Fixing: adhesives, ballast, concealed fasteners, mechanical fasteners. • Protective coating

36. Single Ply Roof Membrane • EPDM , synthetic rubber (ethylene propylene diene monomer)  • NEOPRENE (polychloroprene) synthetic rubber compound  • PVC (polyvinyl chloride) vinyl - thermoplastic compound

37. Single-Ply Membrane

38. Aluminum Faced Single-Ply Membrane

39. Fluid Applied Membrane • domes, vaults, complex shapes • roller or spray gun, applied • several coats - rubbery membrane.

40. Built-Up + Single PlyBallast • loose stone aggregate • precast concrete blocks. • Ballast holds the membrane in place against wind uplift • Protects membrane from ultraviolet light and physical wear. • Increase the fire resistance of the roof covering.

41. Traffic Decks-walks, terraces, parking – on low slope roof • Heavy square paving slabs or stones –open joints on blocks of plastic or conc on roof membrane (b) Open Jointed Paving Blocks on A drainage layer of gravel or porous concrete leveled over the membrane • Water falls through the joints and is drained away by the membrane below • Membrane is not pierced.

42. Structural Standing Seam Metal Roofing for Low Slope Roofs: • Proprietary systems of standing seam metal roofing • Used as low slope roofs - 1/4" in 12 "(1:48). • The folded shape - stiffness - support itself + a normal snow load between purlins without the need for structural deck below.
