The following types of roof decks are addressed in this manual:
Cementitious wood-fiber panels
Lightweight insulating concrete
Steel
Structural concrete (cast-in-place, post-tensioned and precast/prestressed)
Wood panels (plywood, oriented strand board/OSB)
Wood planks and wood boards
All of the listed are deck types addressed in the manual.
The International Building Code, 2009 Edition indicates a design minimum slope of _______________ is required for membrane roof systems, except for coal tar built-up roof system where a design minimum of _______________ is permitted.
1/8:12 and 1/4:12
1⁄4:12 and 1⁄8:12
1⁄4:12 and 1⁄2:12
1⁄4:12 and 1⁄2:24
Roof decks should be sloped to provide positive drainage for a finished roof system. The criterion for judging proper slope for drainage is that there be no ponding water on the roof __________ hours after a rain during conditions conducive to drying.

Following are the generic types of rigid roof insulation that are referencedin this manual and are currently among those most commonly used or found in low-slope membrane roof systems in North America:
Cellular glass and Expanded polystyrene (EPS)
Extruded polystyrene (XPS) and Faced gypsum
Fiber-reinforced gypsum and mineral fiber
Perlite and Polyisocyanurate (ISO)
High-density polyisocyanruate and Wood fiberboard
All of the listed are types of rigid roof insulation.
“Thermal Evaluation of the Effects of Gaps Between Adjacent Roof Insulation Panels” from the Proceedings of the DOE-ORNL Workshop on Mathematical Modeling of Roofs have shown that a minimum of two layers of rigid insulation can provide the following benefits to low-slope roof systems:
Increased roof system thermal performance.
Reduced thermal loss.
Reduced thermal bridging.
Reduced potential for membrane buckling, ridging and splitting.
All of the choices are correct - it is important to understand each one.
Most manufacturers of polyisocyanurate insulation report an R-value of 6.0 per inch of thickness based on the (LTTR) method of determination. LTTR method is defined by ASTM C1303 as the:
“Standard Test Method for Predicting Long-Term Thermal Resistance of Closed-Cell Foam Insulation.”
“Standard Test Method for Predicting Long-Term Thermal Reflectance of Closed-Cell Foam Insulation.”
“Standard Test Method for Predicting Long-Term Thermal Reflectivity of Closed-Cell Foam Insulation.”
“Standard Test Method for Predicting Long-Term Technical Resistance of Closed-Cell Foam Insulation.”
Nailable Roof Decks: Mechanical fastening is a common method for attaching the first layer of high-density polyisocyanurate insulation to certain types of nailable roof decks. If a base sheet first is mechanically fastened to the deck, hot bitumen or adhesive may be used to adhere the insulation.
Non-nailable Roof Decks: Over dry, nonnailable roof decks, NRCA recommends applying high-density polyisocyanurate insulation in manufacturer-approved sealant over the properly prepared deck.

The following general recommendation for recovering over an existing roof system with a new built-up, polymer-modified bitumen, single-ply or liquid-applied membrane roof system should be considered:
The existing roof system and new re-cover roof system must be compatible or appropriately separated.
The roof deck should be secured to the structure of the building, support the design live load and dead load required for the building, and provide the necessary pullout resistance for fasteners used with a new mechanically attached re-cover roof system.
If the new roof system is fully adhered to the existing roof system, the existing roof membrane and insulation, if any, should be secured to the roof deck according to appropriate wind uplift resistance requirements. The surface of the existing roof system may require preparation and/or may need to be primed with a compatible primer to enhance adhesion before application of the new adhered roof system.
The existing roof system should be inspected and tested, if necessary, to determine whether excess moisture is present within the roof assembly. Wet insulation must be removed and replaced with compatible materials.
The existing roof system should be inspected for shrinkage, ridging, splitting and cracking and then repaired appropriately. Portions that may present problems should be secured or removed.
All of these are general recommendations that should be considered.
