1523.6.5.2.2 Mortar or Adhesive Set Roof Tile Systems

2020 FBC - Building, 7th edition > 15 Roof Assemblies and Rooftop Structures > 1523 High-Velocity Hurricane Zones—Testing > 1523.6 Testing Requirements > 1523.6.5 Discontinuous Roofing Systems > 1523.6.5.2 Clay and Cement Roof Tiles > 1523.6.5.2.2 Mortar or Adhesive Set Roof Tile Systems
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER
All mortar or adhesive set tile systems shall be tested for static uplift resistance in compliance with TAS 101, the results of which shall be listed in the system manufacturer's product approval.

1523.6.5.2.2.1

Additionally, roof tile system manufacturers may test for wind characteristics in compliance with TAS 108, provided the system is determined to be air permeable by testing in compliance with TAS 116; and the tiles meet the size criteria set forth in TAS 108. The result from this testing shall be an aerodynamic multiplier (l) which represents the system's wind characteristics and shall be listed in the system manufacturer's product approval.

1523.6.5.2.2.2

Systems which are tested for wind characteristics, in compliance with TAS 108 as specified above, shall have the results of the TAS 101 testing treated as attachment resistance moment (Mf), which is representative of the tile bond's resistance to overturning moment, and the tile's restoring moment due to gravity (Mg). Such systems shall use the system's aerodynamic multiplier (l) in conjunction with the system's attachment resistance moment (Mf) and restoring moment due to gravity (Mg), as determined from the TAS 101 static uplift testing. These results shall be used in conjunction with the attachment calculations outlined in RAS 127 as a momentbased system. Such calculations shall be submitted to the building official for review.

1523.6.5.2.2.3

Systems that are not tested in compliance with TAS 108 as specified above shall have their product control approval based on the system's uplift minimum characteristic resistance force (F'), as determined from TAS 101 static uplift testing. These results shall be used in conjunction with the attachment calculations outlined in RAS 127 as an uplift-based system. Such calculations shall be submitted to the building official for review.

1523.6.5.2.2.4

Testing in accordance with TAS 106 shall be considered a product application quality control test to determine the general adhesion properties of the system.
