does not exceed 22 mm. All plywood sheets must be CCA treated to H3.2. The
plywood must be a minimum of 17mm thickness complying with AS/NZS 2269.0
Concrete and other specifically designed substrates
must be designed in accordance with verification method B1/VM1 using the
structural design actions in AS/NZS1170
A separation layer is required between the substrate
and mastic asphalt topping
The substrate must be dry, with no sharp projections.
All
All work must be carried out by Asphaltech Waterproofing Suppliers Ltd approved
applicators.
Maintenance requirements
All maintenance surveys should be carried out yearly and in the Autumn.
• It is important to check that roof outlets are functioning and gratings are not blocked. Remove
debris from the roof but do not flush silt or dead leaves down outlets. In areas where taller
trees are adjacent to the roof, inspections may be required more frequently.
• Note the general condition of the waterproofing finishes and report any damaged areas
immediately.
• Check waterproofing to roof light kerbs.
• Check roof light domes for signs of damage or deflection.
• Check perimeter details and up stands, ensuring that the metal capping, flashing's, edge trims
and mortar pointing to chase details are secure.
• Check flashing's to expansion joints and that the all components are secure.
• Check the up stand flashing's to plant support legs/up stands.
• Check the up stands and flashing's to pipe penetrations.
• Examine all mastic seals and repair/replace as necessary.
• Check walkways and around access
