attic annex Explanation: The term "Anschluss" is one I am familiar with from my study of European history. In construction I am familiar with this term when we have opened and reconstructed a formerly wasted roof space (as in an attic above a garage) to make it accessible from another finished living space. Example sentence(s):

Die UltraPly FPO-Bahnen (normalerweise 3,05 m breit) werden mit Firestone Verbundkleber vollflächig direkt auf einen passenden Untergrund geklebt. Aneinanderstoßende Bahnen werden um mindestens 75 mm überlappt und heißverklebt. Alle Verklebungen rund um die Dachränder und Durchdringungen werden gemäß den Firestone-Verlegungsrichtlinien (PDF) angebracht. http://www.fbpe.be/de/dachabdichtung/ultraply-tpo/systeme/vo... The RubberGard EPDM panels (typically 3.05 m to 6.10 m wide) are fully adhered directly to an acceptable substrate using Firestone Bonding Adhesive. Adjoining sheets are overlapped a minimum of 100 mm and the seams are spliced with Firestone QuickSeam Splice Tape. All flashings around roof perimeters and penetrations are installed in accordance with Firestone specifications (PDF). http://www.fbpe.be/en/roofing/rubbergard-epdm/systems/fully-... Herkömmliche Mono- oder Polykristalline Solarmodule werden auf einem Trägersystem montiert, das entweder durch Auflast oder Verankerung in der Tragdecke gesichert wird. Jede Hausdachdurchdringung wird mit dem Firestone FPO-Zubehör (nicht unterstütztes Flashing und vorgeformtes Zubehör) wasserdicht verschlossen. http://www.fbpe.be/de/dachabdichtung/ultraply-tpo/systeme/ph... Die in den Verlegungsrichtlinien erteilte Information kann dem Vertragsdachdecker bei der Verlegung des Firestone TPO-Systems unter Einhaltung der Spezifikationen von Firestone behilflich sein.

Roof flashings and terminations are one of the most overlooked aspects of the roof system – and one of the most important. This is because leaks frequently develop in these areas, where the roof joins with walls and chimneys. To help prevent these leaks from occurring, corrosion-resistant metal flashing is typically applied. Metal flashing is effective, because when properly installed, it can help accommodate roof, chimney, wall, or structural movements due to settling, expansion, and contraction. http://www.eliteroofingwindsor.com/solutions-flashing.html Termination points are located around chimneys, vent pipes, valleys and vertical wall joints and this is where flashings can be seen. Flashings are metal pieces designed to prevent water infiltration by allowing two different materials to expand and contract between one another. Before they are installed, it is recommended that all points of termination be waterproofed. Different types of flashings include: Valley – Where two sloping angles of a roof meet, forming a valley. Step – Around roof projections such as walls, dormers, curbs, and chimneys, and are installed between each stage of the roofing process. Roof Edge / Drip Edge – Located at the edge of the roof, protecting the fascia, preventing against wood rotting and rodent entry. Stack – Made to wrap around a pipe stack or roof curb. Counter – Used to protect from weather exposure and also the top edge of base or step flashings on walls, curbs and other surfaces. Wall – Typically used along the front side of a dormer wall for the same purposes as a counter flashing as described above. http://integrityroofers.ca/expert-tips/understanding-your-ro... Flashings: These small metal fixtures are critical in keeping water out of your attic. Flashings are fastened around any protrusions or penetrations in order to prevent water from seeping in around these areas, which are the weakest part of the roof. http://www.eldridgeroofingtx.com/roofing-industry-terms-you-... REPAIRS: 1. Tile expert for repairs and maintenance 2. Repair wood shakes with shingle replacement / shims and/or power washing 3. Composition shingle roof repairs 4. Replace damaged plumbing, heating or attic flashings http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/sks/5429860816.html Flashing Failures • Mineral roll roofing valley liners • Copper or steel valley liners o corroded o tarred o leaky • Chimney flashings - usually tarred • Inspect leak history in attic - flashings & ice dams http://inspectapedia.com/roof/Slate_Roof_Inspection_Class.ph... |

parapet flashing Explanation: In case it refers to parapets rather than to flat roofing, I do add additional referenes: How to make realistic parapet flashings If you want to make that parapet on your building look a little more realistic, try modeling the flashings. http://blog.cadimage.com/2012/08/how-to-make-realistic-parap... Typical sizes for parapet wall flashing • A & C = 100mm - 200mm (typical) • B = to suit the application (outside of wall) The "Installation Code of Roofing, HB39-1997; published by the Australian Standards" specifies a 3 degree minimum full to the top of the parapet capping. The fall is away from the front of the wall and is designed to divert water away from the visual side of the wall. Water running down the wall tends to create unsightly stains. The drip edge of the flashing is intended to get water to drip away from the wall. The use of packing has been detailed in our CAD drawings to provide support for the top of larger parapet flashings. Without it, foot traffic and the weight of the flashing can result in the concaving of the top of the flashing; this leads to water and debris ponding on top of the flashing, which will reduce the life expectancy of the steel. The other concern with unsupported flashings relates to the silicone lap joins which can tear apart if the top of the flashing is damaged by foot traffic, allowing water to enter the building. Overall it is a good practice to include packing on larger parapet cappings. The parapet flashings should be installed as per the relevant Australian standards and the Building Code of Australia and specialist advice should be sort that relates to your specific needs. As a general guide; the "Installation Code of Roofing, HB39-1997; published by the Australian Standards" specifies that parapet flashings be installed at intervals not exceeding 500mm with masonry anchors. http://www.steelselect.com/content/viewresource.php?id=4293 different flashings shown in PDF, including for parapets http://www.mulehide.com/documentcategory/documents/detail-dr... Parapets may not have been flashed originally – it was more common for the roof flashings to be finished behind the stucco on the back of parapets. A parapet flashing, where it was done, consisting of a folded metal flashing, carried up the inside face of the parapet for a minimum height of 6” (150 mm), fixed to the parapet framing, and folded a minimum of 4” (100mm) down across the roofing. A capping flashing over the top of the parapet wall was folded down the exterior face of the wall for a minimum of 2” (50 mm) and down the interior face of the wall to overlap the upstand flashing (Figure 2). http://www.renovate.org.nz/art-deco/roofs-2/roof-cladding-or... Compliance Document for New Zealand Building Code Clause E2 External Moisture : Enclosed balustrade A timber-framed barrier with cladding across all exposed faces. Refer also Parapet. Flashing A component, formed from a rigid or flexible waterproof material, that drains or deflects water back outside the cladding system. : Parapet A timber-framed wall that extends above the level of the roof cladding. Refer also Enclosed balustrade. : Class 2: All other cladding systems to be used within the scope of this document. Testing is to include representative samples of penetrating building elements or joints, and including vertical and horizontal control joints, internal and external wall junctions, windows and/or doors, electrical meter boxes, balcony drainage and parapet flashings, and footer and header termination systems, plus any other relevant details. https://www.google.de/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd... |
