The plan was developed in response to a need for roofing research addressing major materials problems and changes in low-sloped roofing materials technology. The intent of the plan is to establish the technical basis for developing standards and minimum levels of performance to assist in the selection of cost-effective and durable roofing materials. Four major areas of needed research are identified: low-sloped roofing systems, roofing membranes including single-ply and built-up, thermal insulation for roofing systems, and condition assessment and repair of roofs. Within each research area, a goal is given as well as a number of objectives to achieve the goal. A recommended approach to accomplish each objective is also given. 700 $aCullen$b William C$01388807 701 $aCullen$b William C$01388807 712 02$aUnited States.$bNational Bureau of Standards. 801 0$bNBS 801 1$bNBS 801 2$bGPO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910709513303321 996 $aLow-sloped roofing research plan$93476759 997 $aUNINA
