NEW ROOFING SYSTEMS.

Abstract

The search by industry for new materials for special applications has resulted in the development of many new roofing systems. Some of these still use bitumens as an adhesive and waterproofing element but with few exceptions thin films replace the old multiple-ply systems. Although a few systems are applied in a manner somewhat similar to that used for conventional roofing, others are sprayed, brushed or rolled on. (Author)
