Before the application of the membrane, the surface must have been spread with bituminous solution undercoat BITUSOL (TS 103) or bituminous emulsion undercoat BITUMER (TS 113) and allowed to dry up. Membranes start to be applied in a direction perpendicular to the slope at the lowest part of the roof (lowest elevation). The membrane is heated up with oxyacetylene burner flame and then adhered to the surface. The rows must must be laid with some shift sideways. Membranes must be overlapped 15cm on the short sides and 10cm on the long ones, and the seams must be well adhered. Between the layers, there must be a shift sideways for 50cm on the short side and 5m on the long one.
