Coated Felts. Some current thinking favours the use of coated organic roofing felts instead of saturated felts for the construction of built-up roofing membranes. In this case, the bitumen required for waterproofing has already been applied in a uniform coating at the manufacturing plant, and application is essentially the sticking together of sufficient layers to give the strength required. The heavier grades of coated felt have been used for many years in this and other countries as a single-layer roofing material on simply pitched roofs of barns and sheds. In more sophisticated roofing systems, several layers of coated felt are used with hot or cold adhesives and a surface protection of gravel or weathering coat of clay-stabilized asphalt emulsion. 2, record 1, English, - coated%20felt

Feutres recouverts d'enduit. On favorise actuellement l'emploi du feutre organique recouvert d'un enduit pour la mise en œuvre des toitures multicouches, au lieu des feutres imprégnés. Dans ce cas, le bitume assurant l'étanchéité est appliqué sur les feutres à l'usine et il suffit de les coller ensemble en nombre suffisant pour obtenir une toiture multicouche d'une résistance adéquate. Les feutres les plus épais ont été employés depuis longtemps au Canada et à l'étranger pour recouvrir en une seule couche les toitures à pente simple des granges et des hangars. Pour les toitures plus compliquées, on emploie plusieurs couches de feutre enduit collées avec des adhésifs à chaud ou à froid et recouvertes d'une couche protectrice de gravier ou d'émulsion d'asphalte stabilisée à l'argile. 2, record 1, French, - feutre%20enduit

There are several application techniques that can be used when the asphalt is installed by mopping. The modified bitumen sheet can be rolled, scrolled or flopped into the asphalt. Regardless of the application technique employed, the crucial factor is that the modified bitumen sheet make complete contact and embed in the hot asphalt. This can be accomplished by lightly brooming the modified bitumen sheet immediately after it has been installed. It is also good roofing practice to “scuff in” the side and end laps to assure that they are completely sealed. 1, record 2, English, - modified%20bitumen%20sheet

Feuilles de bitume modifié. Cette catégorie de feuilles est obtenue à partir de bitumes et de polymères modificateurs (caoutchoucs synthétiques ou matières plastiques) ainsi que de fillers et d'adhésifs aux propriétés particulières. Puisque le processus de fabrication consiste essentiellement à mélanger les éléments, la quantité d'agent modificateur peut être adaptée en fonction des caractéristiques désirées. Les deux agents modificateurs de bitume les plus utilisés sont le SBS (styrène-butadiène-styrène) et l'APP (polypropylène atactique). La teneur moyenne en SBS du composé varie entre 12 et 15 %. En général, une quantité supérieure de SBS entraîne une augmentation de la souplesse à basse température et de la résistance à la fatigue, une élévation du point de ramollissement et un élargissement de la plage des températures de service. 1, record 2, French, - feuille%20de%20bitume%20modifi%C3%A9

... many flexible membrane roof systems are seamed with adhesives, tapes or hot-air welders, they are often much cleaner than earlier systems. Some modified bitumen systems are torch-welded, so again the application is somewhat cleaner.
