Home My WebLink AboutUntitled (468) IPM.Note Roof of Solaris John Plano SMTP JPlano@safebuilt.com John Plano SMTP JPlano@safebuilt.com Charlie Davis; Mike McGee; MattRoyer Chris Gunion Roof of Solaris Chris, What do you think of this? The original plan indicates FRT plywood. Since the review of the plans I have found some ICC research that allows non-FRT plywood on the roof as long as the structural elements are non com. and the plywood has been tested with the shingles for classification of the roof. I believe in Vail the call has been FRT on roofs Type I and II construction. See the attachment, I included, about wood on roofs from the ICC code interpretations. I had an e-mail from Glenn Morgan in Breck with even more substantiating information that I cannot seem to find now. I do not want to approve something and have it denied after it is up.

Is this assembly acceptable for a Class A roof? VersaSheild, by Elk is used on top of the underlayment as a fire retarder. Fire resistive plywood is a problem with moisture and deteriorates in a few years. It has been refused as an option by our waterproofing consultant. This has been an approved assembly used in Aspen. That's how we found it. Please let us know your thoughts. Thank you. Maggie Maggie T.
