1.1 Practice D7897 applies to simulation of the effects of field exposure on the solar reflectance and thermal emittance of roof surface materials including but not limited to field-applied coatings, factory-applied coatings, single-ply membranes, modified bitumen products, shingles, tiles,...
5.1 Roofing and waterproofing materials and systems undergo changes in physical properties as a result of being subjected to heat. They also undergo changes in physical properties as they age in service. Since service conditions vary widely, any relationship between changes observed...
5.1 Since felts or sheet roofing or waterproofing materials are brought to the roof in a roll and unrolled, this test method simulates felt or membrane behavior under actual field conditions during the unrolling process. 5.2 This test method is designed to aid those interested in the...
5.1 This test method is designed to aid those interested in the engineering properties of roofing and waterproofing sheet materials and membranes. 5.2 This test method enables a researcher to measure the relative flexibility of roofing and waterproofing sheet materials...
5.1 Dynamic mechanical analysis provides a measure of the rheological properties of roofing and waterproofing membrane materials. 5.2 Thermogravimetry is used to characterize the thermal stability of roofing and waterproofing membrane materials under the specific...
3.1 Asphalt-based, solvent-type, fibered or nonfibered, aluminum-pigmented roof coatings are used as a protective coating for solar reflection to prolong the life of roofing materials or where decorative qualities are desired. 3.2 Suitable application of aluminum-pigmented asphalt...
1.1 This specification covers (1) inorganic fiber-reinforced organic felt underlayment, and (2) inorganic fiber-based felt for use as underlayment with steep-slope roofing products. The intent of this specification is to provide criteria for producing and evaluating underlayments with a...
1.1 This specification covers flexible sheet made from ketone ethylene ester (KEE) as the primary polymer intended for use in single-ply roofing membrane exposed to the weather. The sheet shall be reinforced with fabric. 1.2 In-place roof system design criteria, such as fire resistance,...
1.1 This practice is a guide for removing test specimens from existing built-up roofing systems in the field and for determining the approximate quantities of the components of that specimen (Note 1). Components determined may be: 1.1.1 Insulation components when they are part of the roof...

4.1 This test method measures the tendency for oil components to separate spontaneously from asphalt. The separation of oil components can cause staining in asphalt roofing products and adjacent materials in storage and use. 4.2 The stain index is related to the thermal stability of...
1.1 This guide provides information for the development of a program to reduce roof covering waste. The recycled roof coverings and any scrap roof cover materials may be reprocessed back into new roof coverings, into other roofing products, or into products other than roofing....
This specification covers prefabricated, self-adhesive, glass fiber fabric reinforced, polymer-modified asphalt roll roofing, with granule surfacing, designed for steep slope applications. These products use polymer modifiers in their top and bottom coatings and have an adhesive bottom layer...
This specification covers prefabricated, self-adhesive, polyester fabric reinforced, polymer-modified asphalt surfaced roll roofing products, with granule surfacing, designed for steep slope applications. These products use polymer modifiers in their top and bottom coatings and have an...
1.1 This test method covers a technique for determining the solar reflectance of a directionally reflective material using a commercial portable solar reflectometer, including but not limited to roofing materials with granules or surface design that results in angularly...
