#1 - PARAPET WALL DETAIL
 

1. Mechanical Fasteners 12" on center preferred on vertical surface.

2. Fasten EPDM flashing with roofing nails 6" on center.

3. Vertical surfaces over 24" in height require bonding adhesive on the entire vertical surface.

4. 6" wide 60 mil uncured EPDM (3" min. on each surface) adhered with splicing adhesive and sealed along both edges with seam sealer.

5.  6" wide reinforced EPDM RPF strips may be mechanically attached to the roof deck area on the underside of the EPDM using deck plates and fasteners in lieu of the 6" uncured flashing strip on the topside exposed EPDM deck sheet.  

5. Extend EPDM membrane on to the horizontal surface at least 3" and bond with splicing adhesive. Seal the exposed edge with seam sealer.

6. Bonding Adhesive for fully adhered membrane, Grid Bond System, and Seam Disk System in lieu of ballast.

7. Alternate parapet side wall option. On fully adhered roofs only, you may bring the horizonal deck sheet fully adhered on the deck and going up the vertical parapet with a minimum of 6" up the vertical wall. Once the deck sheet is brought up the vertical parapet wall, an EPDM sheet may be fully adhered on the parapet wall with bonding adhesive, placing the parapet EPDM sheet on both the top of the parapet wall and vertical side wall with a minimun 2" overlap on the vertical in place deck sheet. This type of parapet EPDM installation precludes the use of either 3" seam tape or butyl splce adhesive in the EPDM parapet side wall overlap area. This parapet wall type of termination must NOT be in a position to have any ponding water.
 
 
 

#2 - PARAPET SIDE WALL TERMINATIONS

7. Masonry grout.

 8. Alternate parapet side wall option. On fully adhered roofs only, you may bring the horizonal deck sheet fully adhered on the deck and going up the vertical parapet with a minimum of 6" up the vertical wall. Once the deck sheet is brought up the vertical parapet wall, an EPDM sheet may be fully adhered on the parapet wall with bonding adhesive with a minimun 2" overlap on the vertical in place deck sheet. This type of parapet EPDM installation precludes the use of either 3" seam tape or butyl splce adhesive in the EPDM parapet side wall overlap area. This parapet wall type of termination must NOT be in a position to have any ponding water.
