		B.	Leak Barrier:
			1.	Lap end joints 6 inches (152mm) and side joints 3.5 inches (89mm).
			2.	Apply continuous 36 inch (914mm) wide sheet in valley centered over valley.

			4.	Apply rows of 36 inch (152mm) wide sheets along and around all dormers and roof projections. Lap end joints 6 inches (152mm) and side joints 3.5 inches (89mm).
			5.	Install leak barrier membrane at the following locations:
	** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Leak barrier strongly recommended in all areas listed below. Delete areas not applicable or not required.
				a.	Eaves: On all roofs with slope between 3:12 and 4:12, install leak barrier at least 24 inches (610 mm) beyond the interior face of the warm exterior wall.
				b.	Valleys: Install a 36 inch (914mm) wide leak barrier centered on valley.
				c.	Vent Pipes: Extend leak barrier at least 24 inches (610 mm) around all roof penetrations.
				d.	Rake Edges: install leak barrier along the entire length of all rake edges prior to the installation of metal drip edges.
				e.	Hips and Ridges: Install leak barrier along entire lengths. Cut slots where ridge vents are present to allow proper ventilation.
		C.	Roof Deck Underlayment:

			2.	Do not leave exposed to weather more than 90 days after beginning of installation without written approval of owner.
			3.	Do not leave any fastener heads exposed. Nail only in areas to be covered by lapping of underlayment.
	3.4	TILE INSTALLATION
		A.	Install in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
		B.	Beginning at the eave, install tiles with a minimum 3/8 inch (10mm) gap between tiles and any projections, with two roofing fasteners per tile (in location shown on tiles).
		C.	Install another layer of tiles in the same manner as the first with the exception of the second layer having a 1/2 tile horizontal offset from the first layer. Continue installing tiles per the chosen exposure.
		D.	Fastening: Install no less than 2 fasteners per tile. Fasteners must have a minimum length of 1 1/2 inches (38mm).
			1.	Use care when using a pneumatic nailer to insure that nails are not over driven causing the tiles to curl upward. If tiles have been installed with over driven nails causing the ends of the tile to curve upward, tiles will never lay flat. Overdriven tiles must be removed and re-nailed properly.
		E.	Valleys: Either an open or closed valley design may be used.
			1.	Open Valley: Leave a minimum of 2 inches (52mm) on each side of the center of the valley exposed and uncovered by the roof tiles. A "V-Style" or "W-Style Valley" metal may be used.
			2.	Closed Valley: Cut the tiles in a straight line to fit no closer than 3/8 inch (10mm) against tile of adjoining roof slope.
		F.	Care must be taken to place tiles so color variations are evenly distributed over the entire roof area. Tiles between bundles and pallets must be shuffled to insure even distribution of color variations. "Patching" or "Blotching" in appearance is not acceptable. It is recommended that work not begin until all materials have been delivered to the job site. Contact The manufacturer's technical department for instruction on blending all material properly.
		G.	It is the responsibility of the Installer to insure that all tiles are bent back in a downward curve prior to installation. Do not install tiles with an upward curve.

		B.	Cut opening at ridge 3 inches (76 mm) wide, centered on ridge. Stop at least 6 inches (151mm) from rakes or valleys.
		C.	Install ridge vent material full length of ridge, including uncut areas in accordance with the manufacturer's current installation requirements.
		D.	Cover ridge vent with hip and ridge tiles as required by application instructions.
	3.7	PROTECTION
