General

This specification is for use over any type of approved structural deck which is not nailable and which provides a suitable surface to receive the roof. Poured and pre-cast concrete decks require priming with JM Concrete Primer prior to application of hot asphalt.

This specification is also for use over JM roof insulations, or other approved roof insulations which are not nailable and which provide a suitable surface to receive the roof. Specific written approval is required for any roof insulation that is not supplied by JM. Insulation should be installed in accordance with the appropriate JM Insulation Specification detailed in the JM Commercial/ Industrial Roofing Systems Manual. This specification can also be used in certain reroofing situations. Refer to the "Reroofing" section of the JM Commercial/Industrial Roofing Systems Manual. This specification is not to be used directly over gypsum, either poured or pre-cast, or lightweight, insulating concrete decks or fills.

Design and installation of the deck and/or roof substrate must result in the roof draining freely, to outlets numerous enough   and so located as to remove water promptly and completely. Areas where water ponds for more than 24 hours are unacceptable and will not be eligible for a JM Roofing System Guarantee.

Note: All general instructions contained in the current JM Commercial/Industrial Roofing Systems Manual shall be considered part of this specification.

Flashings
Flashing details can be found in the "Bituminous Flashings" section of the JM Commercial/Industrial Roofing Systems Manual.

Application
On roof decks with slopes up to 1/2" per foot (41.6 mm/m), the roofing felts and modified bitumen sheets may be installed either perpendicular or parallel to the roof incline.

Roll a 12" (305 mm) wide piece of one of the intermediate felts listed into a full mopping of asphalt. Over that, apply one 24" (610 mm) wide. Over both, apply a full width piece. The remaining felts are to be applied full width, overlapping the preceding felts by 24 2/3 " (627 mm), so that at least 3 plies of felt cover the substrate at all locations.

Apply a full width piece of one of the cap sheets listed into a full mopping of asphalt. Subsequent sheets are to be applied in the same manner, with 4" (102 mm) side and end laps over the preceding sheets (6" [152 mm] end laps for DynaLastic products).

Apply all felts so that they are firmly and uniformly set, without voids, into the hot asphalt. Asphalt temperature should be at the Equiviscous Temperature (EVT), ±25°F (±14°C), at the point of application. All felt edges shall be well sealed. The asphalt shall be applied just before the felt, at a nominal rate of 23 lbs. per square (1.1 kg/m²). When applying over insulations, more than 23 lbs. per square (1.1 kg/m²) of asphalt may be needed due to the absorbency of the insulation. For modified bitumen sheets, the asphalt temperature shall be at a minimum of 400°F (204°C), or at the EVT, whichever is higher, when the sheet is set into it. This higher temperature maximizes the bonding of the modified bitumen sheet.

For cold weather application techniques, refer to Paragraph 7A.31.

Steep Slope Requirements

Special procedures are required on inclines over 1/2" per foot (41.6 mm/m).
Refer to Paragraph 7A.29.

Surfacing
No additional surfacing is required.

Asphalt

Asphalt should meet the requirements of ASTM D 312.

JM Guarantees require the use of Trumbull asphalt or another JM Approved Asphalt. The Contractor must provide an Asphalt Confirmation Number (ACN) on projects which require a JM Guarantee. The ACN will indicate that the asphalt was registered with the approved asphalt source.
