A method including coating a liquid aqueous silicone elastomer-containing composition onto a surface of a building roof substrate, wherein the building roof substrate is an element of a standing building roofing system, and then drying the liquid aqueous silicone elastomer-containing composition resulting in forming a topcoat on the building roof substrate.

Disclosed herein is a method of manufacturing an improved cover board product with a panel. In some embodiments, the method includes preparing fragments into an assembly; mixing the fragments and an adhesive into a blended core furnish; applying the adhesive to a top side of a bottom layer fabric in the assembly; forming a core mat of the blended core furnish on top of the adhesive; applying the adhesive to a top side of the core mat; applying a surface layer fabric on the top side of the adhesive; pressing the assembly; and cutting and trimming the assembly to form panels.

A roof vent assembly may include a vent tube, a vent cap, an air plate and one or more airflow extension members. The airflow extension members may extend outward beyond the periphery of the air plate to create external air plenums. The roof vent assembly may be operable to draw air from the external air plenums under a roof membrane, into an internal air plenum defined by the air plate, through the vent tube and out of the vent cap to remove moisture from the roof.

A thermoplastic roofing membrane comprising a planar thermoplastic sheet, optionally having more than one layer, where at least one layer of the membrane includes an ethylene-based olefinic block copolymer, and where the sheet is characterized by a storage modulus of less than 450 MPa at 0° C.

A method is provided for forming an adhered membrane roof system that meets Factory Mutual (FM) 4470/4474 standards for wind uplift. The method comprises applying a bond adhesive to a substrate on a roof to form an adhesive layer and applying a membrane directly to the adhesive layer. The bond adhesive includes a moisture-curable polymer.

Provided is a seamless composite roofing system for a gravel built up surface. The system includes a first fluid application flood coat of bentonite emulsion applied over a gravel built up surface at a rate of 15 gallons per 100 square feet and a second fluid application flood coat of bentonite emulsion applied at a rate of 10 gallons per 100 square feet. The second flood coat includes approximately 3 to 6 pounds of chopped reinforced fiberglass per 100 square feet, and is applied over the first flood coat after the first flood coat cures. A fiberglass reinforcement layer with approximately 3 to 6 pounds chopped reinforced fiberglass per 100 square feet is applied over an area surrounding any roof top penetrations, followed by an elastic trowel grade mastic layer. An asphalt primer is then applied over the second flood coat, followed by a reflective Energy Star Rated top coat.

A thermoplastic membrane including at least one layer including a thermoplastic polyolefin and a functionalized polyolefin copolymer.
