Some embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a roofing system. In some embodiments, the roofing system includes a roofing membrane, which may include a cap, a scrim, and a core. In some embodiments, the roofing system may also include an adhesive film, which may include a first adhesive layer adhered to the roofing membrane, a second adhesive layer configured to adhere the roofing membrane to a roofing substrate, and a barrier layer positioned between the first and second adhesive layers. Methods of manufacturing roofing systems are also disclosed.

A ceiling panel having a connection portion at one of end portions on both sides in a first direction of a panel body in a shape of a rectangular flat plate, the connection portion connecting with a connected portion of an adjacent ceiling panel. The connection portion is fixed to the end portion by a fastener, the fastener being fastened to an insertion part inserted into a layer of the panel body from a cut portion opening on a back face of the end portion so as to penetrate a securing part provided along the back face of the end portion.

A method for waterproofing a substrate includes steps of: attaching a separation sheet to the surface of the substrate; and attaching a waterproofing membrane sheet to a surface of the separation sheet by a plurality of adhesive elements having a first and second major adhesive surface, wherein the separation sheet is a non-woven fabric sheet, or an embossed polyolefin membrane sheet and each adhesive element includes an adhesive layer composed of a pressure sensitive adhesive.

A carrier material has a resin layer arranged on a side of the carrier material. The resin layer includes a formaldehyde resin, a polymer selected from a group containing polyacrylates, polyepoxides, polyesters, polyurethanes, and long-chain silanols, and at least one silane-containing compound of general formula (I), R.sub.a SiX.sub.(4-a), and/or the hydrolysis product thereof, where X is H, OH, or a hydrolyzable residue selected from the group comprising halogen, alkoxy, carboxy, amino, monoalkylamino or dialkylamino, aryloxy, acyloxy, alkylcarbonyl; R is a non-hydrolyzable organic residue R selected from the group comprising alkyl, aryl, alkenyl, substituted and unsubstituted alkynyl, cycloalkyl, which can be interrupted by O or NH; and where R can have a functional group Q selected from a group containing a hydroxy, ether, amino, monoalkylamino, dialkylamino, anilino, amide, carboxy, mercapto, alkoxy, aldehyde, alkylcarbonyl, epoxide, alkenyl, alkynyl, acryl, acryloxy, methacryl, methacryloxy, cyano, and isocyano group, and a is 0-3.
