ABSTRACT:
A roofing installation having a plurality of substrates including a deck; a flexible membrane in overlying relation to the substrates and forming an upper roof surface, and a plurality of battens for securing the membrane to the underlying substrates, the battens being arranged in a radial pattern directed radially outward from a central region of the roofing installation, the radial pattern allowing for communication between regions of the flexible membrane partitioned by adjacent batten placements and roof edges, thereby providing for controlled ballooning and for dispersion of wind uplift forces throughout the roofing installation. Also, a roofing installation having a plurality of substrates including a deck; a flexible membrane in overlying relation to the substrates and forming and upper roof surface, the flexible membrane comprising at least one continuous manufactured sheet having manufactured seams perpendicular to the length of the sheet and at least a portion of the roof edge; and a plurality of battens for securing the membrane to the underlying substrates, the battens being arranged perpendicular to said portion of the roof edge and extending along at least certain of the manufactured seams, the battens permitting communication between regions partitioned by adjacent batten placements and the portion of the roof edge thereby providing for controlled ballooning and for dispersion of wind uplift forces in the roofing installation. Also, a method of installing a roof over a roof substrate by applying a flexible membrane over the roof substrate; placing a plurality of battens over the roof substrate in the desired pattern; securing the placed battens to the roof substrate; and securing the placed battens to the flexible membrane.
