MFM Building Products offers a new innovative roof flashing membrane – GreenWeld PVB. GreenWeld PVB armored flashing system is a high-performance PVB membrane enhanced with an aluminum scrim for superior flexibility, strength and weathering.

The American Architectural Manufacturers Association has released an updated specification establishing minimum performance requirements for liquid-applied flashing used to provide water-resistive seals around exterior wall openings in buildings that includes fenestration products.

Huber Engineered Woods, manufacturer of ZIP System building enclosure products, announced the expansion of its line of ZIP System sealing solutions and enhanced flashing tape performance.

If using the option of turning the soft metal flashing down into the pipe, the possibility exists that the metal may split due to pipe expansion and contraction and/or building/roof deck settlement.

Install as local code and wind-uplift design requirements dictate.

The profile of specific components, their configuration or sequencing, can vary with the roof system, climatic differences, and regional or area practices.

Keene Building Products announced the introduction of the newest member to its drainage and building envelope product family of products.

This code implies that ice and water shield—eaves flashing—is required for installation on all heated, steep-slope structures in colder climates.

In cold climates, where snow and ice are common, an ice-dam protection membrane is recommended on downslope roof perimeters (e.g. eaves), valleys, and around penetrations.

Parapets, where roofs meet walls, can create problems in building design.
