The NRCA Roofing and Waterproofing Manual, Fifth Edition, presents about
450 construction details depicting standard roof termination and flashing conditions
for a variety of roof systems.
The construction details also are available in a manipulatable computer-aided design
format in NRCA Construction Details on CD-ROM, Fifth Edition. The program allows
users to select, view, modify and paste NRCA's construction details in documents
to suit their specific project's needs.
NRCA's testing of shop-fabricated edge metal
NRCA has tested the wind resistance of specific shop-fabricated edge metal flashing
details. These flashings are based on guidelines in
The NRCA Roofing and Waterproofing
Manual, Fifth Edition. This testing provides quantitative data regarding
the wind resistances of specific edge metal flashings and serves as basis for code
acceptance of shop-fabricated edge metal flashings.
NRCA maintains a certification listing with
Intertek
Testing Services/Warnock Hersey (ITS), a code-approved testing and approval
agency, and
FM Approvals.
