Table 2 – ASCE Exposure Classification

ASCE Exposure Classification Defined American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) has defined the roughness of the terrain into four “ground roughness” categories, or “exposures”. Exposure A This classification applies to large city centers with at least 50 percent of the buildings having a height in excess of 70 ft. (21.3 m). Use of this exposure category shall be limited to those areas for which representative terrain prevails in the upwind direction for a distance of at least one-half mile (0.8 km) or 10 times the height of the building or structure, whichever is greater. Possible channeling effects or increased velocity pressures due to the building or structure being located in the wake of adjacent buildings shall be taken into account.

Exposure B Urban and suburban areas, wooded areas, or other terrain with numerous closely spaced obstructions having the size of a single-family dwelling or larger. Use of this exposure category shall be limited to those areas for which representative terrain prevails in the upwind direction for a distance of at least 1,500 ft. (460 m) or 10 times the height of the building or structure, whichever is greater.

Exposure C Open terrain with scattered obstructions having heights generally less than 30 ft. (9.1 m). This category includes flat, open country and grasslands.

Exposure D Flat, unobstructed areas exposed to wind flowing over open water for a distance of at least one mile (1.61 km). This exposure shall apply only to those buildings and other structures exposed to the wind coming from over the water. Exposure D extends inland from the shoreline a distance of 1,500 ft. (460 m) or 10 times the height of the building or structure, whichever is greater.

Approved Insulation List and Fastening Rates for Mechanically Attached, Ballasted and VRS Systems

Introduction

This is a listing of insulation and cover board products acceptable for use with DRS Mechanically Attached, Ballasted and VRS Roofing Systems. Each listing shows specific manufacturer and product names, indicates which products are approved for retrofit applications and which are eligible for DRS warranty coverage. In addition, fastening recommendations for each product type are shown. Please note the variations in required insulation pre-securement and/or cover board requirements as it relates to insulation type and thickness. Note: It is not within the scope of this chart to provide information relating to building code compliance, or specific Factory Mutual Global (FMG) or Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (UL) approvals. FMG, UL and/or building code requirements for insulation type, thermal barrier requirements, minimum/maximum insulation thickness and product pre-securement rates may differ from the DRS requirements shown herein. Refer to the current edition of the FMG Approval Guide, the UL Roofing Materials and Systems Directory and/or the UL Fire Resistance Directory for complete information, or contact the DRS Technical Review Department DRS recommends that the building Department be consulted to ensure compliance with local requirements.

General Recommendations

1. Refer to the product manufacturer’s literature to confirm minimum allowable thickness required to span steel deck flutes, etc. 2. Adjacent insulation/cover boards shall be installed as closely as possible with no gaps or offsets greater than 1/4 inch. 3. Since many insulation systems provide taper to 1/2 inch thickness only, a tapered edging of DRS-approved insulation is recommended to be installed at all such transitions. 4. Approved insulation products shall be installed with the longest dimension of the board perpendicular to the direction of mechanically secured membrane lap seams whenever possible. Insulation end joints shall be staggered. 5. Insulation pre-securement fasteners/plates shall be installed at the rates shown herein and located on each board as shown in DRS Detail Drawing DR-622. 6. For applicable substrates (structural concrete, gypsum, cementitious woodfiber) DRS permits insulation boards to be adhered using a DRS-supplied insulation adhesive or hot steep asphalt (ASTM D312, type III and IV). The insulation manufacturer, adhesive manufacturer and DRS Technical Services must specifically approve such applications. When using insulation adhesives/asphalt to secure insulation, the insulation board size can not exceed 4-ft. X 4-ft. 7. Consult the DRS Technical Review Department at (877)788-8324 if the insulation manufacturer’s current installation/securement instructions conflict with information published herein.

NOTES: 1. A separation sheet/layer may be required when using a polystyrene product directly over coal tar pitch B.U.R. roof systems. Consult the insulation manufacturer for specific requirements. 2. Due to the lower compressive strength of Type VIII (1.25 pcf nominal density) expanded polystyrene (EPS), DRS requires this product to be overlaid with an approved polyisocyanurate insulation or cover board (i.e. DensDeck® or Securock® for Mechanically Attached, Fully Adhered, GardenTopTM and some VRS Roofing Systems. Type I (1.0 pcf nominal density) EPS is acceptable for use under stone/paver ballasted systems only. 3. This product is not approved as a recovery layer directly over gravel-surfaced B.U.R. roof systems. It is approved for use over existing single-ply and smooth or mineral surfaced roof systems.
