  4. Roof covering – The outside layer; sheds water Underlayment – Sometimes called “felt” or “paper” and provides temporary protection during construction and a secondary weatherproofing layer during the life of the structure Roof Deck – The structural substrate that carries the roof loads to the roof framing, typically plywood or OSB (oriented strand board) Roof Framing – The structural support for the roof Civil Engineering and Architecture Unit 3 – Lesson 3.1 –Commercial Building Systems Project Lead The Way, Inc.

  7. Low-slope roofs are not flat. They are slightly sloped to roof drains so that water will not stand or “pond” on the roof. Because water moves more slowly on low-slope roofs, the roofing material must be highly resistant to infiltration. Civil Engineering and Architecture Unit 3 – Lesson 3.1 –Commercial Building Systems Project Lead The Way, Inc. Copyright 2010 Commercial Roof Systems
  8. Surfacing – Protects the weatherproofing and reinforcement Reinforcement – Adds strength, puncture resistance, and dimensional stability to the roofing, and is often combined with another layer Weatherproofing – One or more layers that keep the water from entering the building Roof decking – A material used to span across beams or joists to create the roof surface. The decking for low-slope roofs is often ribbed metal sheets but can be other material such as plywood.
