Applications dealing single ply tie-ins

Many roof systems are found to be incompatible with one another, for example a PVC roof membrane and a BUR roof, are chemically incompatible. This incompatibility makes it difficult to tie into different roof systems, as is frequently the case encountered in roofing and waterproofing. This tie in continuity process is further complicated by the fact that there is no way to “grab onto” the dissimilar roof systems.Typical solutions to date involve the construction of elaborate raised roof dividers, where dissimilar roofing materials are physically separated from one another. The roof dividers are usually installed in the least expected locations with the result of obstructing water drainage and causing ponding on roofs in locations where there is no possibility of facilitating drainage.

SITURA has developed a solution to this unwieldy problem. A variety of incompatible roof systems can now be almost seamless connected together, in a waterproof and obstruction free manner.

Tie-ins are available for the following roof systems:

  • EPDM membrane to Modified Bitumen membrane
  • EPDM membrane to Built-Up-Roofs
  • EPDM membrane to Hot Rubberized Asphalt membranes
  • EPDM membrane to Spray Polyurethane Foam roofs
  • PVC membrane to Modified Bitumen membrane
  • PVC membrane to Built-Up-Roofs
  • PVC membrane to Hot Rubberized Asphalt membranes
  • PVC membrane to Spray Polyurethane Foam roofs
