SECTION 07512
ROOFS
PART 1 – GENERAL
1.01 ROOFS
A. The designer should provide a complete roof plan of each roof area and provide
large-scale details clearly indicating relationships between membranes, flashings,
counter flashings, expansion joints, all metal work, roof accessories, roof-top
equipment, any interruptions of the membranes or flashings, and all
penetrations and use of sealants. Call out specific manufacturer’s standard
details by number, when designing around that manufacturer’s system.
B. The designer should specify the generic roofing material and application system
(i.e. solid mopped, ballast, adhered or mechanically fastened), best meeting that
specific building’s requirements. An experienced and financially responsible
manufacturer of that generic roofing system should be chosen as the basis of
specifications/details. All detailing and specification items should conform to the
requirements of that commercial system, except that the designer may exceed
the manufacturer’s requirements when in the Owner’s best interests.
C. The following statement, under "Products" may be used as a guide: "These

specifications are based on the published specifications for two-ply modified
bitumen roofing (MBR) by Manville Roofing Systems Division. Products of the
following other manufacturers using the asphalt-adhered modified bitumen
roofing system will be acceptable, provided the specifications and detailing
proposed for use, equal or exceed the quality specified:
1. GAF Building Materials Corporation
2. Soprema Roofing & Waterproofing, Inc.
D. The designer must decide whether any alternates are appropriate or in the
Owner’s best interests. Alternate/s must meet the base bid specifications, and
be listed by manufacturer and material and application method. Do not use the
term, "or approved equal."
E. The following guidelines should be incorporated into the design and
specifications for new or replacement roofs:
1. All new roof structures should be designed with a minimum slope of 1/4
in/ft.
2. Replacement roof systems should result in minimum finished roof slopes

of 1/8 in/ft.
3. Coal tar pitch and modified coal tar products may not be used on Pacific
Lutheran University facilities.
4. Drains through decks should have an insulated horizontal leg below the
deck.
5. Use of a vapor retarder below the roof insulation should be considered

where the indoor relative humidity during winter months is expected to
exceed 45%. Controlled environments such as art galleries, animal rooms,
libraries, some laboratory spaces, and natatoriums would meet these
criteria.
6. Use of an air barrier is highly recommended over non-monolithic decks

such as concrete/wood plank, steel, etc. A properly installed air barrier
prevents excessive wind uplift forces acting on the roofing system, and is
required with some roofing systems on certain height buildings.
7. Spray-applied polyurethane foam roofing systems (PUF) may only be

considered after discussing the extenuating circumstances with and
gaining full approval from Construction Management.
8. Special care must be taken when investigating each building’s specific

roofing needs. Generic roofing type and installation method must be
selected to meet those specific, identified needs.
9. Designer is responsible for conducting structural analysis on all building

areas to receive roofing. Roofing systems must be selected to ensure the
structural integrity of each roof support system, including all snow and
other code requirements.
10. Concrete pavers and splash blocks used on roofs must be specifically
made for rooftop use, and of high-density concrete.
11. All rooftop traffic patterns must be identified and the roofing system
protected from abuse with the roofing system manufacturer’s required
walkway materials and installation methods.
12. Areas where the roof could be damaged by chemical attack should be
protected as recommended by each roofing system manufacturer.
13. Where flood testing of completed roofing systems is appropriate, the

Owner’s designated representative must be notified in advance for
coordination.
14. All newly added wood blocking must be pressure treated. Specify the
type of treatment compatible with each generic roofing material.
15. In roof replacement, all existing wood blocking and other edge
securement materials must be checked for anchorage. These must
receive additional fastening/modification where required, to provide
adequate anchorage, as demanded by the roof system’s manufacturer.
16. All aesthetically sensitive roofing systems and their appurtenant

accessories should be designed to complement the building’s design,
architectural and historical significance. Special precautions and
approvals are required on National Registry buildings.
17. Gutters, down spouts, and all other exposed metal work should be
specified for durability and resistance to corrosion, as well as to match
existing building metal work. Sixteen/twenty-ounce copper, lead-coated
copper, and Kynar-coated 24 gauge galvanized steel 316 stainless steel
are recommended, depending on each building’s specific requirements.
18. Roof designs must comply with the applicable codes and with all other
applicable Pacific Lutheran University, federal, state, and local codes and
ordinances. Thermal calculations must include the use of aged "R values."
19. The designer should demand a contractor warranty of at least two (2)
years. The warranty shall cover all materials (insulation, roof membrane,
flashings, sheet metal, sealants, and any other roof components used),
and workmanship to maintain the roofing system and flashings
watertight and weathertight, effective from the date of substantial
completion. Contractor must be on site within twenty-four (24) hours to
make necessary leakage repairs.
20. Likewise, the roofing system manufacturer must provide a 15-year
minimum roofing system watertight warranty. A separate, extended
membrane weathering warranty (normally for 20 years) should be
required, where available.
