ASTM D6135-05

Standard Practice for Application of Self-Adhering Modified Bituminous Waterproofing (Withdrawn 2014)

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
This practice outlines general procedures and precautions for the application of self-adhering modified bitumen waterproofing systems used in new installations.
This practice is not all-inclusive and is intended only to supplement detailed instructions from designers.
SCOPE
1.1 This practice covers the minimum installation recommendations for self-adhering modified bitumen sheets used in waterproofing.
1.2 For the purpose of this application practice, the substrate is assumed to be structurally sound, sloped to drain, able to accept the weight of the membrane and other system materials, and meets the local building code requirements. Similarly, all components of the waterproofing system are assumed to comply with any federal, state, and local environmental regulations, which may be in affect at the time of installation. Additional plies of membrane, expansion joints, insulation and drainage layers are beyond the scope of this practice.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
WITHDRAWN RATIONALE
This practice covered the minimum installation recommendations for self-adhering modified bitumen sheets used in waterproofing.
Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee D08 on Roofing and Waterproofing, this practice was withdrawn in July 2014 in accordance with section 10.5.3.1 of the Regulations Governing ASTM Technical Committees, which requires that standards shall be updated by the end of the eighth year since the last approval date.
