A factor of safety of 2 is applied to the maximum
allowable wind uplift results.
2
The wind uplift test results can be related to the
adhesion of the membrane to the substrate only.
Results are not an indication of the bond of the
substrate to the substructure and are not an
indication of the strength of the deck substructure.
The deck and framing to which the Duradek Ultra
system is adhered must be designed for the
applicable components and wind loads in accordance
with the applicable code.
3
Plywood is minimum 5/8-inch-thick exterior-grade
with tongue-and groove edges, complying with
recognized standards.
4
Cement board is ‘USG Durock Cement Board Next Gen’
minimum 1/2-inch-thick (nominal).
5
Adhesive must be applied in accordance with the
manufacturer’s published installation instructions.
