Greem Roof System Over Sip Roof

Several assemblies that prevent shingle ridging are described in the builder s guide to structural insulated panels sips.

Greem roof system over sip roof.

Build for the future with extreme s structural insulated panels sips the high thermal values and strength properties of extreme s sips are highly beneficial for roof construction. Specifying a cold roof or simply over sheathing the roof. The pitch of the roof is very low only 1 2 inch in 12 and the metal roofing has been applied directly over the sips with no air channel beneath the roofing for ventilation. Green roof development involves the creation of contained green space on top of a human made structure.

The elastomeric base ply paradiene 20 tg is engineered to retain its elasticity through the rigors of deck movement. A strong resilient roof is a home s first line of defense when the roof deck is exposed to weather. Green roof systems may be modular with drainage layers filter cloth growing media and plants already prepared in movable often interlocking grids or loose laid built up whereby each component of the system may be installed separately. The ridges caused by the expansion of sip roof panels may be an aesthetic blemish but it does not affect the performance of the roofing or the sip roof panels.

Vegetated green roof systems teranap multi ply sbs modified bitumen systems the torch applied two ply teranap system is based on siplast s proven roof membrane design. We re debating between using modular trays to contain the soil or putting it straight on the roof with membrane or metal roofing over sip surface. Load would be 25 lbs per sq ft. Green roof would be 4 inches of soil plants.

Extreme s pre insulated sips offer an option for a high performance roof framing solution that is 15 times tighter than conventional construction practices making it easier to control indoor air environment.
