THE TPO SINGLE PLY SYSTEM |
|
Lancashire |
|
The TPO ( Thermoplastic Polyolefin) membranes offer a wide variety of applications for use on flat, vertical, pitched, waveform and barrel vaulted surfaces. The standing seam and lead look-a-like systems offer the designer greater flexibility on unusually shaped roofs that need to comply with the current Part “L” regulations this systems has also been in the market place for decades, and is widely used in industrial and domestic instances. The reason being is that there is no requirement for the boiling pot or torches as with the roll and pour and torch on systems, the whole system is a NO NAKED FLAME APPLICATION . See outline below: TPO: Thermoplastic Olefin or Polyolefin TPO membranes are single-ply roof membranes constructed from ethylene propylene rubber. They are designed to combine the durability of rubber with the proven performance of hot-air weldable seams. They have been tested as having excellent resistance to ozone, are algae-resistant, environmentally friendly and safe to install. The material's manufacturers are so confident in properly welded seams that the material is sometimes advertised as a monolithic (seamless) roof. Seam strengths are reportedly 3 to 4 times those of EPDM's adhesive and tape seams. TPO is highly resistant to tears, impacts, and punctures with good flexibility to allow for building movement. TPO's are available in white, light grey, and black. TPO membranes are installed fully-adhered, mechanically-attached or ballasted. Fully-adhered means that the roof is "glued" to the substrate using a special adhesive. What actually happens is the glue creates a chemical bond with the membrane. Ballasted simply means the membrane is loose laid over the top of the roof, sealed at all penetrations and around the perimeter, and then a ballast is put on it to hold it in place. Ballast usually consists of smooth, round, river rock 50mm - 150mm in diameter and is applied at a rate of 1,000 to 1,200 pounds per roof square (100 sq. ft.). Sometimes concrete pavers are used in their place. These average 20 pounds per square foot. Mechanically-attached membranes are those that use some type of special screw-type fastener to secure it. The type of fastener will depend on the type of substrate but all fasteners are generally screw-type fasteners. Compatibility Membranes are compatible with most insulation panels including expanded/extruded polystyrene and oxidised bitumen. Durability Life expectancy is inexcess of 25 years.
