Application Instructions
TRI-BUILT® APP Granular is intended to be used as the primary weathering surface in new or re-roof applications.
TRI-BUILT® APP Granular is to be applied as the outermost layer of a multi-ply roof system over a compatible base or
inner ply sheet. TRI-BUILT® APP Granular may be applied directly to non-combustible substrates.
• Apply over clean, dry, dust and debris-free substrates. Prime concrete decks prior to application with
Asphalt Primer.
• When re-roofing, remove all prior roofing materials down to a clean debris-free substrate and properly close-off all
abandoned roof penetrations.
• Concrete or steel decks shall be designed with proper expansion devices.
• Wood decks shall have all joints blocked and properly supported.
• Ensure the fire rating of the assembly over any combustible substrate.
• Ensure the installation of TRI-BUILT® APP Granular does not prevent the ventilation of existing construction.
• Do not apply over shingles or any granulated surface.
• While installing TRI-BUILT® APP Granular:
1. Start at the low point of the roof.
2. Unroll the material and allow to relax.
3. Install with traditional torch roofing techniques ensuring proper heating of the roofing material as not to expose
the reinforcement.
4. Do not heat the substrate.
5. Position successive rolls providing a minimum 6" end lap and 3" side lap. Asphalt bleed out shall be 1/4" to
3/8" on all seams.
6. Laps shall be rolled with a 6”-wide roller immediately after heat welding.
• Details and flashing may be installed using TRI-BUILT® APP Granular with torch applied techniques. Do not
use cold adhesives or hot asphalt. Check project details for proper installation requirements.
