Submission by the FRSA/TRI (Formerly the RTI) TILE COMMITTEE |
These recommendations were developed after surveying the recent hurricanes and with input from the code, roofing and tile manufacturing community.
They are designed to further clarify the current installation procedures as they pertain to the specific roof tile systems (Mechanically fastened, Adhesive-set or Mortar-set).
The following recommendations provide for only products approved by the FBC (Florida Building Code), tested according to SSTD-11 and verified by third party independent FBC approved laboratories, to determine the wind uplift limitations of the various hip and ridge attachment methods or by installation methods currently recognized in the HVHZ (High Velocity Hurricane Zone) section of the FBC.
A joint sub-committee consisting of members from the FRSA (Florida Roofing, Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors Association, Inc) and the TRI (Tile Roofing Institute) drafted these recommendations and they were approved by consensus by the FRSA Roof Tile Committee.
