Description
The Neuchâtel Armourplan Single Ply Membrane System is a range of polyester-reinforced single-ply polyvinyl chloride (PVC) membranes:
- Armourplan® SG - A polyester fleece-backed membrane for bonded roofing systems.
- Armourplan® PSG - Glass tissue reinforced polyester fleece-backed PVC membrane suitable for both flat and sloping roofs.
- Armourplan® SM - A polyester reinforced membrane for mechanically fastened roofing systems.
- Armourplan® P - A heavy duty polyester reinforced membrane for use in a wide range of roofing applications on both flat and sloping roofs. This membrane can be mechanically fixed, adhered or ballasted.
The Neuchâtel Armourplan Single Ply Membrane System may also incorporate thermal insulation:
- IKO enertherm MG — polyisocyanurate board with mineral glass tissue facings on both sides
- IKO enertherm ALU — polyisocyanurate board coated on both sides with a multi-layer gastight aluminium complex
- IKO enertherm GOLD - 100 % CFC, HCFC or HFC-free insulation board with a rigid polyisocyanurate foam core, clad on both sides with a multi-layer gastight aluminium complex.
The Neuchâtel Armourplan Single Ply Membrane System is a roof and deck waterproofing membrane, and with insulation, contributes to the thermal resistance of the building envelope. It can be applied to warm, cold or inverted roofs.
Scope
1. The Neuchâtel Armourplan Single Ply Membrane System is certified for use on buildings:
- a) situated:
- i) in Wind Zones, up to, and including Extra High (as defined in NZS 3604:2011), and within the scope limitations of NZBC Acceptable Solution E2/AS1 para 1.1 with regards to building height, or
- ii) in wind pressures up to a maximum design differential ultimate limit state (ULS) of 9 kPa for fully bonded membranes or a ULS wind pressure determined by specific design for mechanically fastened membranes, and
- b) where the roof or deck pitch is pitched or nominally flat (1:80) and
- c) where the sub-structure is:
- i) timber designed in accordance with NZS3604:2011 as a light roof, or
- ii) concrete or other specifically designed sub-structure designed in accordance with verification method B1/VM1 (Amendment 15) using the structural design actions in AS/NZS1170:2002, and
- d) where the substrate for the membrane is:
- i) timber - plywood (CCA H3.2 treated) or OSB, or
- ii) Concrete (cast in-situ or pre-cast), or
- iii) Metal - aluminium or galvanised steel (including composite cold store roofing panels), and
- e) where the membrane is subject to pedestrian traffic other than for installation and general maintenance either Armourplan Walkway shall be used or additional protection provided to the membrane.
2. The Neuchâtel Armourplan Single Ply Membrane System shall:
- a) be designed and installed in accordance with the IKO Systems Guidelines V9, May 2017, and A Specifier's Design Guide to Polymeric Single Ply Roofing, IK00715, July 2015, and
- b) be installed by Neuchâtel Waterproofing Ltd approved applicators (contact certificate holder for list of approved applicators).
3. This certification does not include:
- a) the design and construction of the substrate and movement / control joints, or
- b) the weather tightness design of all junctions on specifically designed buildings, or
- c) applications where ancillary components other than those provided by Neuchâtel Waterproofing Ltd listed in the Technical Literature are substituted with alternative products, except as provided for in Condition #4 of this certificate.
4. This certification allows for the substitution by an alternative woodwool slab, PIR insulation board or mineral wool insulating product subject to it complying with Building Code clauses B2 Durability B2.3.1(a) and F2 Hazardous Building Materials F2.3.1 which is supported by evidence such as a Product Certificate (CodeMark), Appraisal issued by a competent organisation or a product technical statement reviewed by a competent person.
