Roofing Felt on Polystyrene
A set of instructions is presented on methods to install compact flat roofs which, on the upper side of the supporting construction, are heat-insulated with expanded polystyrene and covered with roofing paper. Directions are also given for repairing, reroofing, and maintaining the roofs. Possible damage occurring on polystyrene insulated roofs discussed are: cracks and bulges; walking; blisters and bubbles; blow-off of asphalt-bonded insulation and roofing caused by wind. Factors discussed for obtaining durable, serviceable roofs are: roof angle; roof plan; level underlayment for insulating and roofing; expanded polystyrene; roof paper; bonding asphalt; mechanical fasteners; weather conditions during roofing; interior climate/vapor barrier; plan of operation. Current insulation and roofing practices for roofing paper on polystyrene and repair/reroofing/maintenance of old roofs are discussed. (ERA citation 06:015775)
