Temperatures Calculated and Experienced by a Roof in Canberra, Australia
In order to provide information about the temperatures experienced by a bituminuous membrane on a multi-layered roof in Canberra, Australia, an array of 36 thermocouples was included in a prototype section of the construction, and monitored for a period of 110 days. The frequency distributions of temperatures over an eleven-year period were calculated for the surface, the bituminuous membrane, and the ceiling, considering the effects of air conditioning and insulation. Temperature hazard indexes for degradation of components at different localities can be derived, if the relevant climatic data are available.
