Roof Design

The 130mm Unilin Insulation Boards are engineered to work with a wide range of bitumen-based waterproofing systems. These systems typically employ a BS EN 13707:2013 type 3G perforated base layer or a proprietary system for roof waterproofing. Installation should position the fleece side facing upwards, though full bonding represents an alternative approach. For moisture and condensation management, consult BS 8217 guidelines for reinforced bitumen membranes in roofing applications.

Falls

Flat roof design must incorporate adequate falls to prevent water pooling and ensure proper drainage.

Roof Loading

The 130mm Unilin FR/BGM boards are engineered for roof decks with minimal foot traffic and low maintenance requirements. Where regular pedestrian access is required, install designated walkways on the roof surface. Following roof completion, protective boarding should be installed if additional site work is anticipated, protecting the roofing system's integrity.

Roof Finish

Built-up roofing systems require finishing with a suitable reflective layer such as chippings. Consult the system manufacturer for specific recommendations.

Fire Performance

Fire rating, when tested to EN 13501-5 and BS 476 Part 3 'External Fire Exposure Roof Test', depends on the waterproofing system selected.

Vapour Control Layer

Prime roof decks before applying hot bitumen for vapour control layer bonding. Reference BS 8217 when installing the vapour control layer. Extend the VCL past the insulation and seal with the parapet wall.
