Optimizing the Wind Uplift Resistance of Mechanically Attached Roof Systems1
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Wind dynamics on a mechanically attached single-ply roofing assembly can lift the membrane and cause fluttering, introducing stresses at the attachment locations. To identify a component in a system that has the weakest ...
Effect of Fastener-Deck Strength on the Wind-Uplift Performance of Mechanically Attached Roofing Assemblies
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A roofing system consists of a waterproof membrane, attachments, cover board (if present), insulation, and vapor or air barrier [retarder (if present)]. A roof assembly is a roof system that includes the structural deck. ...
