ASTM E 936 Document Information:
Title
Standard Practice for Roof System Assemblies Employing Steel Deck, Preformed Roof Insulation, and Bituminous Built-Up Roofing
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Dec 10, 1998
Scope:
This practice covers the performance requirements for the design,
components, construction, and
service expectations of new roof system assemblies. For this purpose,
the roof system always
includes steel deck, preformed roof insulation, and bituminous
built-up roofing, and their
attachment. It may also include fire-resistive components, integral
acoustical treatment, vapor
retarder, adhesive or mechanical fastener attachment, and aggregates.
The objective is to provide realistic criteria for the overall
performance of the roof assembly and
its components because, by necessity and custom, a roof assembly
contains a variety of components
and is subject to varied environmental conditions.
To assist in the successful implementation of the installation and
service requirements of the roof
system assembly, criteria are established to provide for compatibility
of the various components.
Nothing in this practice is intended to exclude products or systems
not covered by the documents
referenced in Section 2.
The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be
regarded separately as standard.
The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore,
each system must be used
independently of the other.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
