1 For 17 years, IRSI has been providing the CAT 5 Roof Design with Guaranteed Hurricane Protection

3 What is the single most destructive force that causes damage to roofing systems? 85%

4 The water uplift is a result of the Vortex Vacuum off the wings.

5 The highest uplift winds - corners and perimeter.

6 Wind moves up the wall which meets straight airflow at top creating Vortex Vacuum.

7 Mechanically attached membrane with no air barrier allows moist air to enter roof.

8 Water molecules are incredibly small (one billion = one foot).

9

10 Condensation Forms Moist air condenses on the underside of the roof membrane.

11

12 Water molecules are incredibly small and exceedingly destructive.

13 Ultimate destruction of a roof metal deck can occur absent an air barrier.

14 Moisture entering a concrete roof deck - rebar expansion results in extensive damage.

15 Ultimate destruction of a roofs concrete deck can occurs without moisture management.

16 One method of single ply roof membrane attachment mechanically attached.

17 Mechanically attached method is popular because of price.

18 Fasteners are installed at the edges of the single ply membrane usually every 10 ft.

19 As the wind blows across the roof it lifts the membrane in a billowing pattern.

20 The membrane lift is occurring at the perimeter.

21 Absent an air barrier combined with high winds roof blow off is likely.

22 MECHANICALLY ATTACHED

23 The 2nd option for single-ply roof membrane attachment is fully adhered.

24 Fully adhered is 1/5th of the mechanically attached method because of high cost.

25 Adhesive is applied on the insulation facer (paper) and the underside membrane.

26 The Polyiso insulation with (paper) facer is mechanically attached.

27 Melting snow indicates air leakage from within & thermal (heat) transfer at fasteners.

28

29

30

31 The single-ply membrane lifted due to Polyiso (paper) facer failure.

32 FULLY ADHERED Example of a fully adhered roof Polyiso facer pealed back and is now upside down

33

34

35 The 3nd option for single-ply roof membrane attachment is CAT 5 Roof Design.

36 The perimeter air seal/air barrier above will not allow airflow under the membrane.

37 CAT 5 air barrier is created with air seal tape & membrane attached to the structural deck.

38 CAT 5 attachment method attaches the roof membrane to the metal structural deck.

39 CAT 5 attachment method attaches the roof membrane to the concrete structural deck.

40 Vortex valves introduce negative pressure under the membrane & into the roof system.

41 Vortex Valves 40' Vortex Valves Vortex Valves are strategically placed (2) in the corner and approximately every 40 ft.

42 Negative pressure agitates moisture molecules until solid water converts to vapor.

43 Water vapor is evacuated by air transfer through the Vortex Valves.

44 Vortex Valve being installed on a CAT 5 Roof Design System.

45 CAT 5 Roof Design vs. Big 4 Flat Roof - Wind Speed Warranties

46 Roof Warranty - Exclusions Johns Manville Hurricanes, Condensation Strong Gales (47 mph), Windstorms (34 mph), Inadequate Drainage. GAF Hurricanes, Condensation Winds in Excess of 55 mph, Failure of wood nailers, Exposure to Sustained High-Temperatures, no leaking blisters. Firestone Hurricanes, Condensation 100 mph Winds of 3 Second Peak Gusts Above Ground at Ten Meters (=55mph), Deterioration to Metal Caused by Salt or Fresh Water, Atmosphere Carlisle Hurricanes, Condensation 100 mph Winds of 3 Second Peak Gusts Above Ground at Ten Meters (=55 mph) Cat 5 Roof Design No exclusions for Hurricanes, Condensation and many other strange items.

47

48 Wind gusts exceed sustained winds by a wide margin.

52 Carlisle warranty exclusions highlighted.

53 CAT 5 Roof Design no warranty exclusions highlighted.

76 How Is Cat 5 Roof Design a Better Roof? Proven energy savings through air barrier technology System attaches only to the strongest component of deck assembly for maximum wind resistance and building protection Roof is airtight and vacuum sealed using wind to our advantage Guarantees hurricane protection up to 200 mph Guarantees moisture removal and condensation from the roof assembly Protects weak decks by acting as a safety net preventing winds from reaching the deck Attached field perimeter termination independent of nailers and flashing membrane Reduced fastening for fastest installation and reduced labor costs
