Abstract
The North American roofing community has long recognized the benefits of including a cover board to increase a roof assembly’s durability. In the past, the main purpose of cover boards was to protect against weather elements and minimal foot traffic. As a result, cover boards were evaluated for their material properties based on standards that were developed for individual board types.
