PART 3--EXECUTION

3.1 EXAMINATION

A. Check rafters, trusses and roof deck for humps, dips and loading capacity. A minimum 5/8" deck is required for rafters/trusses 24" O.C. Install decking at hips to allow for 1" flat surface for installing the hip nailer and at the ridge for 1 1/2" opening if ridge venting is to be installed.

3.2 PREPARATION

A. Roof deck should be clean, smooth and dry when underlayment is applied.

B. Coordinate installation with flashing, gutters, vents, skylights and other adjoining Work to ensure proper sequencing. Do not install roofing materials until all vent stacks and other penetrations through roof sheathing have been installed and are securely fastened against movement. When tile vents are used they have to be installed prior to cutting the penetrations.

3.3 INSTALLATION

A. Comply with manufacturer's installation instructions and recommendations, but not less than recommended by "The NRCA Steep Roofing Manual" and local code requirements.

B. Eave fascia and plywood eave blocking shall extend above roof deck to ensure proper cant for bottom row of tile. For pitches 4:12 and above use 9-1/2" wide blocking. For pitches below 4:12 use the 12" wide blocking. For Spanish tile eave fascia is level with the roof deck so blocking is not used.

C. Install eave metal.

D. Install 24" standing seam, double rib (for closed valleys) or 24" double rib valley flashing (for open grouted valleys) lapped a minimum of 4" over 36" full width vertical felt strip for all valley areas. At least one layer of felt shall be applied under all flashing For pitches below 4:12 lap flashing 6" and install a 3'wide strip of ice and water shield or flashing material sealed to each side of the valley flashing before the horizontal underlayment is installed. For Spanish tile install 28" standing seam, double rib (for closed valleys) or 24" double rib valley flashing (for open grouted valleys).

E. Install sidewall flashing at sidewalls and at sides of chimneys that have no saddles. A vapor barrier extending over the flashing should be used behind the siding. A 12" strip of ice and water shield extending 3" up the sidewall should be installed under the flashing.

F. At lower sides of dormers, chimneys and other walls, extend angle flashing at least 3" up walls and 3" over tile with 1/2" hem. A 12" strip of ice and water shield extending 3" up the angle should be installed under the flashing. Install Riviera closures with Riviera tile and ridge closures with Spanish tile. Counter flash as necessary.

G. Chimneys and other roof protrusions over 30" require a framed saddle (cricket) with a maximum ridge length of 24". Saddle flashing must extend a minimum of 12" up the roof and 31/2" up the back of the chimney. Thoroughly counter flash as necessary. For protrusions less than 30" wide a flat saddle flashing that extends a minimum of 6" up the vertical and 18" up the slope is used.

H. All counter flashing is to be plugged, pointed and made secure.

I. Apply no less than one layer of 43# felt with standard 3-3/4" lap laid parallel to eaves and ridge. Nail all horizontal seams one inch from the edge with7/8" large head galvanized nails 4"-8" O.C., i.e. 4:12=4" O.C.; 6:12=6" O.C.; 8:12 and above=8" O.C. Lap all vertical seams a minimum of 6", seal with sealant and nail all vertical seams 3" O.C. Extend felt 1/4" over lower edge of eave metal, to within 1 inch of outside valley rib and sealed to the metal, 4 inches up side walls and 6 inches over ridges and hips, thereby providing a double layer on ridges and hips. The roof deck shall be clean, smooth and dry when felt is applied.

J. On pitches below 4:12 substitute.060 EPDM or ice and water shield (for summer installations) or torch applied modified bitumen (for winter installations) in place of the 43# felt.

K. Lay out roof as follows: first, install ridge nailer/vent. Next strike lines centered on each hip if applicable. Then strike the horizontal line for the top edge of first batten 13-1/4" for flat and 12-1/4" for Riviera above the eave to ensure proper fit of the bottom row of tile. Next, strike the horizontal line for the top edge of the last batten so the field tile butts the ridge nailer (approximately 1" below). Then divide the distance between these two lines into equal increments not to exceed 12 inches and strike lines for the top edges of the battens. For Spanish tile strike a horizontal line for the top edge of the first batten 15" above the eave to ensure proper fit of the eave closure and the bottom row of tile. Next strike the horizontal line for the top edge of the last batten so the field tile butts the ridge nailer (approximately 1-1/4" below). Then divide the distance between these two lines into equal increments not to exceed 14 inches and strike lines for the top edges of the battens.

L. Install horizontal 1"x2"x8' batten strips equally spaced (12" maximum). For Spanish tile install horizontal batten strips equally spaced (14" maximum). Use pressure treated battens with notches or ports 16" O.C. and fasten with 18 fasteners for pitches 4:12 and above. Use pressure treated 1 "x 2"x 6' battens with notches or ports 8" 0. C. installed with 14 fasteners on pitches 3:12 to 4:12.

M. Stack tile on roof selecting them randomly from several pallets to ensure an even color blend or order them pre-blended from the factory.

N. Tile should be laid from right to left for Flat tile (as viewed facing the ridge). For Riviera, tile should be laid from left to right. For Spanish tile should be laid from right to left as viewed facing the ridge.

0. Fasten tile as they are installed on the battens. Fastening requirements are determined by the pitch of the roof and prevailing wind conditions. See Figure 1 for Flat and Riviera tile. See Figure 2 for Spanish tile.

P. Rake trim shall be installed as tile are laid along gable edge. Trowel sealant on the underside of the rake trim and secure the side with two copper R/S nails or noncorrosive screws.

Q. Ridge trim shall be installed as roof progresses. Install an end cap where gables meet ridge.

R. Hip starters and hip trim shall be laid as hip tile are cut and secured in place.

S. All hip, ridge and ridge end cap trim shall be nailed and shall be lapped in sealant.

T. Specifications for tile in heavy snow areas

1. Heavy duty Flat and Riviera tile should be specified in heavy snow areas. Heavy duty tile weigh more (1200 lbs/square for Flat and 1050 lbs/square for Riviera) and have increased transverse strength to reduce possible breakage from glacier type snow and ice slides.

2. Solid flat tile (super strong because of making it without a contour on the underside and weighing 11 lbs each/1 500 lbs per square) can be used where snow and ice fall from upper roof lines onto lower roof areas, along eave lines where drifting snow cantilevers over the eave, for cut valley pieces and under snow guards.

3. Roofs that have gables within 5' of a valley require special attention. Using gable flashing instead of rakes is recommended. If rakes are used, you have to prevent snow and ice slides from catching on the exposed edges and pushing them off. Use a generous amount of adhesive between the rake and the field tile. Use screws to fasten the two field tile along the gable and for the rakes instead of nails. Right and left rakes mitered 45° along the top side should be specified for Flat and Riviera tile.

For Spanish tile use grout to fill all voids along the exposed edges.

4. Proper attic or counter batten ventilation is required for all styles of tile to insure that building heat loss is not trapped under the tile. A 250 square foot minimum factor should be used instead of the standard 300 square foot factor in determining the eave and ridge venting requirements. Special attention should be given to roofs without ventilated attic space. Send a copy of your plans to our Estimating Department for a review and recommendations on your venting system.

5. Snow guards are recommended for all roof and valley areas with pitches of 17/12 or lower. Special attention should be given to upper roofs with roofs below them. Decorative styles are available upon request.

U. High Wind Specifications and for roofs exceeding 40 feet

1. The following installation procedures are to be performed in addition to Vande Hey-Raleigh standard specifications for Flat tile and Spanish tile. Vande Hey-Raleigh will provide a written warranty to include wind uplift up to 120 miles per hour when Vande Hey-Raleigh Flat tile and Spanish tile are installed in accordance with their standard specifications and the additional specifications outlined below.

a. Install eave closures at all eaves with Spanish tile.

b. For Flat tile fasten all field tile with gripdeck non-corrosive SCREWS (2-1/4" TP thread point) of sufficient length for slight penetration through the underside of the plywood decking. Tile will be prepunched with a 3/16" hole at the time of manufacture. When the nail hole lands directly over a port hole in the battens or space between the battens, drill a new nail hole 2" to the right. For Spanish tile fasten all field tile with two gripdeck non-corrosive SCREWS (2-1/4" it TP thread point). Use one screw when one nail hole lands directly over a port hole or in the space between the battens. Fasten all trim pieces with 2-7/8" non-corrosive gripdeck screws for Flat and Spanish tile.

c. Install hurricane clips set on a dab of sealant at all eaves for Flat and Spanish tile.

d. For flat tile set every other tile in a dab of masonry adhesive on the underside of the waterlock 1 1/2" from the bottom (be sure the amount and location of the adhesive used doesn't prevent the tile from resting flat on the tile below) or fasten every other tile with regular hurricane clips. Do not lay in a half joint pattern.

e. The openings under the, Spanish hip and ridge pieces shall be closed with mortar grout, color to match the color of tile.
