NOTE: IF A PROPOSED APPLICATION FALLS OUTSIDE OF THIS SPECIFICATION, CONTACT FIRESTONE ROOF SYSTEM SOLUTIONS GROUP FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. 2.02 JOB SITE CONSIDERATIONS: SAFETY, (CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS) A. SAFETY: 1. Comply with all applicable regulatory safety and health regulations. 2. Consult container labels, Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and Technical Information Sheets (TIS) for specific safety instructions for all products used on the project. 3. Keep all adhesives, sealants and cleaning materials away from ALL ignition sources (i.e., flames, fire, sparks, etc.). Do not smoke while using these materials. 4. Care must be used when installing fasteners or other required roof related items to avoid possible conduits and other piping in and or under the deck. 5. Fumes from adhesive solvents may be drawn into the building during installation through rooftop intakes. Refer to Firestone's Technical Information Sheet "Recommended Guidelines for Application of Roofing Materials to an Occupied Building ". 6. Do not use heat guns or open flames to dry adhesives and primers. B. CAUTIONS: 1. Store Firestone TPO membranes in the original undisturbed plastic wrap in a manner to protect it from becoming damaged. Insulation must be properly stored and protected from ignition sources, moisture and damage. Consult container labels, Material Safety Data Sheets and Technical Information Sheets for specific safety, use and storage instructions for all products used on the project. 2. Do not use oil -base or bituminous -base roof cement with any Firestone TPO membrane. 3. Store Firestone Insulations properly protected from ignition sources, moisture and damage. C. COLD WEATHER: 1. When the outside temperature is below 40 °F (4.4 °C), certain combinations of temperature and humidity may cause condensation on the surface of solvent -based adhesives and primers. If this condition occurs, discontinue the application. When the ambient air conditions no longer cause condensation on adhesive surfaces and the membrane is clean and dry then re -apply additional adhesive or primer and proceed. Firestone Building Products Firestone UltraPlyr" TPO Standard Systems Application Guide Interim Updates at www.firestonebpco.com Revision No.3 3/16/2011 3 2. The consistency of sealants, adhesives and primers will begin to thicken as the temperature drops. To minimize this, the following is recommended: a) Start work with sealants, adhesives and primers that have been stored between 60 °F and 80 °F (15.5 °C and 26.7 °C). Insulated and heated boxes may be helpful. b) Complete test areas to determine if conditions will cause problems such as condensation with the application of the materials. c) Stop the operation or change to another warm container when material becomes too thick to properly apply. 3. When the outside temperature is below 40 F (4.4 PC), installation of the Firestone TPO System requires additional application procedures: • Ensure that the roof surface is dry. Moisture, even trace amounts, may cause poor adhesion, and may lead to moisture entrapment within the roofing system. • Use of temporary roofs should be considered when roof applications must occur in cold or potentially wet weather to permit continued interior construction or roof- top work to proceed. 4. If using Water -Based Bonding Adhesive (WBBA), temperatures and substrate must be at least 40 °F (4.4 °C) and rising for the material to be applied and perform as designed. Longer drying times should be expected for lower temperatures and higher humidity. Plan ahead for material staging. 2.03 ROOF SUBSTRATE PREPARATION 11, It is the roofing contractor's responsibility for ensuring that the substrate is acceptable for the Firestone roof system.

CORRECT SUBSTRATE DEFECTS: I. Defects that need to be corrected before work can commence should be brought to the attention of the General Contractor or Owner in writing and addressed by them. 2. For re- roofing applications, remove existing roof system components as specified by the project designer. If components are discovered during installation that could be Firestone Building Products Firestone UltraPlyT" TPO Standard Systems Application Guide Interim Updates at www.firestonebpco.com Revision No. 3 3/10/2011 4 detrimental to the performance of the new roof system, they should be brought to the attention of the project designer for corrective action. 3. If soundness and integrity of the existing roof system cannot be verified, good roofing practice requires a complete tear -off to the structural deck. However, recovering an existing roof system is an alternative to removing existing roof components. Non- destructive testing, in conjunction with core cuts, must be completed to determine the condition of the existing roof system and decking. 4. The building owner or project designer is responsible for assuring that all wet insulation and /or wet substrate materials are removed in a re- roofing application. The best diagnostic technique is taking and evaluating a series of roof cuts. There are three other techniques that are currently available to make this determination by indirect means. These are: • nuclear moisture detection . infrared thermography • electric capacitance These techniques provide measurement of factors that can be associated with the presence of moisture, which can then be verified with the use of roof core cuts to confirm the results of the non - destructive testing. 5. In the absence of a design professional, the roofer should coordinate with the building owner to assure conditions are satisfactory to commence with the project as designed. B. REMOVE MOISTURE: 1. Ponded water, snow, frost and /or ice, present in more than trace amounts must be removed from the work surface(s) prior to installing the Firestone TPO Roofing System. C. PREPARE SURFACE: 1. Acceptable substrates to which the Firestone TPO Roofing System is installed must be properly prepared prior to roof system installation. The surface must be relatively even, clean, dry, smooth, free of sharp edges, fins, loose or foreign materials, oil, grease and other materials that may damage the roof system. Rough surfaces that could cause damage to the membrane must be overlaid with insulation or cover boards as determined by the design professional. D. FILL VOIDS: All surface voids of the immediate membrane substrate greater than 1/4" (6.35 mm) wide must be filled with insulation. 2.04 WOOD NAILER LOCATION AND INSTALLATION Wood nailers must be installed as specified by the project designer or as noted in Firestone Details and the EPDM System Design Guide. Install wood nailers as follows: Firestone Building Products no longer requires the use of treated wood nailers. This is due to the new EPA requirements that have caused treated lumber to have more corrosive properties than the previous generation of wood treatments. See Technical Bulletin dated March 3, 2005. Firestone Building Products Firestone UltraPly'. TPO Standard Systems Application Guide Interim Updates at www.firestonebpco.com Revision No. 3 3/10/2011 5 If architectural specifications require the use of treated wood nailers, the following Firestone requirements apply: •Refer to the Firestone Design Guide for the appropriate Firestone fastener to be used for - securing membrane into wood nailers. •Nails penetrating treated wood nailers must be hot - dipped galvanized, meeting ASTM A653, Class G185 or as currently recommended by industry associations. •Aluminum fasteners, flashings and accessory products must not make direct contact with treated wood nailers. •Uncoated metal and painted metal flashing and accessories, except for 300- series stainless steel, must not make direct contact with treated wood nailers. •When in doubt of the type of treatment of the wood nailer or its compatibility with a metal component, use EPDM membrane as a separator. Because of recent EPA regulations regarding treated wood, new treatments for lumber may be highly corrosive to fasteners. Contact the fastener manufacturer for their recommendations on fasteners if attaching nailers that have been treated with corrosive materials. A. WOOD NAILER GRADE: 1. When wood nailers are used, Firestone specifications require the use of wood that is kiln - dried (Southern Pine, Douglas Fir) structural grade #2 or better, unless otherwise noted. While being stored on the roof, properly elevate and cover non - treated wood to protect from the weather and keep dry. Nailers must be properly anchored to provide secure attachment through the warranty term. Nailers are not covered by the Firestone warranty B. SIZE OF NAILER 1. Nailers shall be a minimum thickness of 2" x 4" nominal (1 -1/2" (37.1mm) x 3 -1/2" (89mm)) and exceed the width of any metal flange attached to it by a minimum of 1 /2" (12.7mm). C. POSITION WOOD NAILER 1. Total wood nailer height must match the total thickness of insulation being used and should be installed with a 1/8" (3.2 mm) gap between each length and each change of direction. When more than one nailer thickness is used end joints should be staggered a minimum of 12" from the prior layer in straight runs. D. SECURE WOOD NAILER 1. Wood nailers must be firmly fastened to the deck or building. Mechanically fasten wood nailers to resist a minimum force of 200 lb/f (890 N) in any direction. Refer to attachment requirements of the roofing system as specified by the project designer if greater than 200 lbf (890 N). E. TAPER WOOD NAILER 1. The wood nailer must be tapered (if applicable) so that it will always be flush at the point of contact with the insulation (refer to Firestone Details). Firestone Building Products Firestone UltraPly" TPO Standard Systems Application Guide Interim Updates at www.firestonebpco.com Revision No 3 3/10/2011 6 • F. POURED -IN -PLACE DECKS 1. For new construction over poured -in -place decks or fill, and all recover projects, a waterproof separator membrane shall be placed between the non - treated lumber and the deck. G. INSTALLATION OF WOOD NAILERS BY OTHERS 1. Make these specifications and details available when nailers are to be installed by others. Work that compromises the integrity of the roof system may jeopardize the roof warranty. H. FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 1. Please consult the NRCA Special Report, "Use of Treated Wood in Roof Assemblies." This Technical Bulletin is also posted on the Firestone website at www.Firestonebpco.com 2.05 AIR OR VAPOR BARRIER INSTALLATION A.

Firestone Recommends the use of ISOGARD HD when a coverboard is specified in a ballasted roofing system. Ballasted systems are not allowed when the membrane is installed directly to a layer of insulation, which has been mechanically attached. A. INSTALL INSULATION: 1. Install only as much insulation as can be covered with roofing membrane and completed before the end of the day's work or before the onset of inclement weather. 2. Form continuous insulation joints over deck flange. Do not cantilever insulation edges over deck ribs. Minimum bearing surface: 1 inch (25.4 mm). 3. When installing multiple layers of insulation, all joints between layers shall be staggered 6" minimum. B. FIT INSULATION: 1. Neatly fit insulation to all penetrations, projections, and nailers. Insulation should be loosely fitted, with no gaps greater than 1/4" (6.4 mm) filled with acceptable insulation. Firestone Building Products Firestone UltraPlyrn TPO Standard Systems Application Guide Interim Updates at www.firestonebpco.com Revision No. 3 3/10/2011 10 2. On metal decks, the edge of the board parallel with the roof deck flutes should be completely supported by the flute. The membrane should not be left unsupported over a space greater than 1/4" (6.4 mm). 3. Tapered insulation with acceptable facers for bonding must be installed around roof drains to provide proper slope for drainage as shown in Firestone Details. C. ATTACH INSULATION 1. Mechanical Attachment: a) Insulation must be attached using Firestone Insulation Plates and Fasteners. HailGard fasteners may be used to attach HailGard insulation without the use of insulation plates. b) If installing on a metal deck (where allowed by specification), the edge of the board parallel with the roof deck should be completely supported and fasteners must penetrate the top flute of the deck. c) When installing fasteners, care should be taken to avoid penetration of conduits and other piping below or encased in the deck. d) For insulation attachment please refer to the Technical Information Sheets that reference the specific insulation being used. Use appropriate attachment patterns and fastening rates of that specific insulation. e) For specific deck penetration requirements refer to the Technical Information Sheet that references the specific fastener being used. f) When installing a multi -layer insulation assembly, the fastening pattern is determined by the type and thickness of the top layer of insulation and the performance criteria of the system. MAS systems with a fully adhered perimeter shall require the perimeter insulation to use fastening pattern used in a fully adhered system as determined by the top layer of insulation. g) Ensure that the fasteners are fully seated, but not overdriven. Use a properly adjusted clutch or depth sensing type of drill. Do not use a standard single speed drill. h) Multiple layers may be installed using a common fastener.

Read all of the information to ensure that it is the correct system and application.. TPO Membrane installations may require the use of a Quickfieam Reinforced perimeter Fastening strip (QSRPF) requiring coordination with the many substrates at perimeters and layout and installation of the membrane system in a logical sequence. This process should be addressed early in the roofing process. 19 NOTE: this detail is for systems up to 15 years. The additional securement details for the membrane (base tie -in) will occur at all locations where the membrane goes through an angle change greater than 1" (25.4 mm) in 12" (305 mm) (i.e., roof edges, curbs, interior walls, etc.) and other areas as details indicate. See additional information in details A. FULLY ADHERED SYSTEM: 1. Membrane Placement: a) Place membrane panel, starting at the low side of the roof, unroll over the acceptable substrate and allow to relax for a minimum of 30 minutes before attaching or splicing. Firestone Building Products Firestone UltraPly'' TPO Standard Systems Application Guide Interim Updates at www.firestonebpco.com Revision No. 3 3/10/2011 14 b) The Firestone TPO Adhered System shall be installed so that the seams shed or run parallel to the flow of water. c) Placement of additional rolls of membrane shall provide for sufficient overlaps for seaming of membranes, see standard lap splice details for robotic and hand welding. d) Sheets cut along one side shall have the cut edge installed as the underside sheet at all seams. 2. Fold the Membrane Back: a) After making sure the sheet is placed in its final position allowing for the proper lap width per Firestone details and specifications, fold it back evenly onto itself without wrinkles to expose the underside mating surface of the sheet. 3. Remove any debris or dirt: a) Sweep the mating surfaces with a stiff broom to remove any debris or dirt that may have accumulated. If required, wash membrane with Splice Wash SW -100 and allow to dry. 4. Apply the Bonding Adhesive: lo p Stop Bonding Adhesive Short of membrane Seam Area Care must be taken not to apply bonding adhesive over an area that is to be later hot air spliced to another sheet or flashing. All bonding adhesive must be completely removed from the seam area. a) Apply bonding adhesive with either a 9" (228 mm) wide solvent- resistant paint roller or a commercial -grade adhesive sprayer. Adhesive must be applied in a relatively uniform thickness to both surfaces at approximately the same time. If adhesive is spray- applied, it must be back - rolled with a solvent- resistant paint roller to assure proper contact and uniform coverage. Refer to Firestone Technical Information Sheets and container labels for specific application instructions. 5. Apply Bonding Adhesive at Specified Coverage Rate: a) Refer to the container label and Technical Information Sheet for specific application requirements and coverage rates. 6. Test Bonding Adhesive for Readiness (Touch -Push Test): a) Allow the bonding adhesive to flash -off. Touch the adhesive surface in several places with a clean, dry finger to be certain that the adhesive does not stick or string. As you are touching the adhesive, push forward on the adhesive at an angle to ensure that the adhesive is ready throughout its thickness. If either motion exposes wet or stringy adhesive when the finger is lifted, the adhesive is not ready for mating. Flash -off time will vary depending on ambient conditions of temperature, wind and humidity. 7. Bond the Membrane to the Substrate: a) Starting at the fold, roll the previously coated portion of the membrane into the coated substrate slowly and evenly to prevent wrinkles. 8. Broom the Membrane: a) To assure proper contact, compress the bonded half of the membrane to the substrate with a stiff push broom. Firestone Building Products Firestone UltraPly "" TPO Standard Systems Application Guide • Interim Updates at www.firestonebpco.com Revision No. 3 3/10/2011 15 9. Repeat Procedure to Complete the Membrane Installation: a) Fold the non adhered half of the membrane back onto itself, and repeat the procedure. • 10. Splice the Lap: a) If membrane has been open for more than 12 hours or become contaminated, wash mating surfaces with Splice Wash SW -100 and allow to dry. b) Splice the laps with hot air welding as specified and refer to UT -LS details B. MECHANICALLY ATTACHED SYSTEM g o Firestone recommends that when installing mechanically attached membranes over steel decks, the field attachment should run perpendicular to the deck panels. If a project is Factory Mutual insured or specified, per FM 1 -29 for Global Loss Prevention Data Sheets, attachment must run perpendicular. 1. Plates and Fasteners a) Membrane Placement: Perimeter Sheets (1) Place membrane panel, unroll over the acceptable substrate and allow to relax for a minimum of 30 minutes before attaching or splicing. The Firestone UltraPly TPO Mechanically Attached Roofing Systems are installed starting at the low point of the roof using up to four sheets, determined by job requirements, that are half the width of the field panels. Ensure proper sheet overlap allowances for system roof edge details and seams, consult Firestone UltraPly TPO Lap and edge or base tie -in details. (2) The Firestone TPO System shall be installed so that the seams shed or run parallel to the flow of water. (3) Placement of additional rolls of membrane shall provide for overlapping the sides of the adjoining sheets 6" (152.4 mm) as marked on the top side of the membrane and overlapping the ends of adjoining sheets a minimum of 3" (76.2 mm). For sufficient seaming overlaps of membranes, see standard lap splice details for robotic and hand welding. (4) Note: Orient Firestone UltraPly TPO panels such that the exposed (cut) edges of the membrane are used as the bottom panel in splices whenever possible. If cut edges are exposed on the weather side, they must be sealed with Firestone UltraPly TPO Cut Edge Sealant after welding. b) Fold the Membrane Back: (1) After making sure the sheet is placed in its final position allowing for the proper lap width per Firestone details and specifications, fold it back evenly onto itself without wrinkles to expose the underside mating surface of the sheet. c) Remove any debris or dirt: (1) Sweep surfaces with a stiff broom to remove any debris or dirt that may have accumulated. Firestone Building Products Firestone UltraPly'" TPO Standard Systems Application Guide Interim Updates at www.firestonebpco.com Revision No. 3 3110/2011 16 • d) Install First Perimeter Panel: (1) The inside edge of the half sheet(s) is attached using Firestone HD -Reel -Fast collated Seam Plates or loose bulk or HD+ Seam Plates AP, HD or HD+ Fasteners as required a minimum of 2" (50.4mm) from membrane edge. (2) Install each fastener so that it is properly engaged in the deck and the head is flush within the countersunk portion of the Seam Plate. (3) The first field side sheet is then heat welded to the perimeter half -sheet side and one end seam and fastened along the opposite edge. Continue this procedure for all perimeter sheets. If the slope changes direction, begin working at the lower edge of the adjoining side of the roof up the slope until reaching previous work.
