Abstract
A method of forming a sloped roof can comprise obtaining a base layer comprising at least one of a permeable mesh, woven fabric, non-woven fabric, plastic, foam material or combinations thereof; applying the base layer over a roofing substrate of the sloped roof; and applying a liquid roofing material to the base layer to form a liquid applied roof.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- applying a base layer over a roofing substrate of a roof;
- wherein the base layer comprises at least one of a mesh, woven fabric, non-woven fabric, plastic, foam material or combinations thereof;
- wherein the roof comprises a sloped roof, and the roofing substrate comprises a slope of at least 30 degrees;
- applying a liquid roofing material over the base layer, such that the liquid applied roofing material penetrates through at least a portion of the base layer so as to substantially seal the base layer;
- and
- wherein the base layer is configured to control flowing of the liquid roofing material along the slope of the roofing substrate as the liquid roofing material is distributed along the roofing substrate;
- curing the liquid applied roofing material to form a substantially uniform covering along the roofing substrate.
4 more elements
A temporary roofing system comprising:
- a base layer having lipophilic properties and adapted to be applied to a roofing substrate;
- a protective layer positioned along an upper facing surface of the base layer, the protective layer comprising a hydrophobic material;
- wherein the protective layer is removable and is adapted to reduce water flow through the base layer;
- and
- wherein the base layer is configured to receive a liquid roofing material to form a permanent roofing structure.

A method, comprising:
- obtaining a base layer comprising a mesh, woven fabric, non-woven fabric, plastic, foam material or combinations thereof;
- positioning the base layer over at least a portion of a roofing substrate of a roof;
- and
- coating the base layer with a liquid roofing material;
- wherein the base layer is configured to allow penetration of the liquid roofing material therethrough;
- wherein the base layer comprises features adapted to restrain flow of the liquid roofing material along the roofing substrate to control flowing and sagging of the liquid roofing material along the roofing substrate as the liquid roofing material is distributed along an upper surface of the base layer to form a substantially uniform coating along the roofing substrate;
- wherein the roof comprises a sloped roof, and the roofing substrate comprises a slope of at least 30 degrees.
