DETAILING WITH SINGLE PLY
MEMBRANES
ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT KEYS to success in roof waterproofing is the

correct design, installation and watertight performance of details, such as the
membrane connections to penetration and terminations.
Sika provides a wide range of differ-

ent detailing accessories and ancillary
products including:
¬ Laminated metal
¬ Bars and other fixing elements
¬ Sealants
¬ Adhesives
¬ Homogenous membrane sheets
¬ Prefabricated pieces and sections
¬ Drainage products
All of which are fully compatible with

the flexible Sikaplan® / Sarnafil®
membranes, thus ensuring waterproof
detailing solutions for almost any con-
nection, penetration and termination
– making them as watertight as the
membrane itself.
Please refer to the Method State-

ments and Installation Handbooks for
Sikaplan® / Sarnafil® membranes which
contain all of the necessary instruc-

required.

DETAILING WITH LIQUID APPLIED
MEMBRANES
WITH LIQUID APPLIED MEMBRANES, all details can be basically painted over
easily to form a seamless waterproofing layer.
Liquid applied Sikalastic® membranes

can be used in conjunction with glass
reinforcement mats, to provide seam-
less waterproofing around all different
types of detailing at areas including:
upstands, plant and equipment entries,
or around other roof penetration and
components. This type of detailing is
very easy to install and ensures durable,
long-lasting successful waterproof-
ing to almost any shape or design of
upstand (square, T or U shaped metal
profiles, etc), many of which would be
impossible or much more time con-
suming with sheets or other materials.
Sikalastic® liquid applied membranes
can also be used as a detailing solution
on Sikaplan® and Sarnafil® single ply
membranes. Particularly on complicated
details, the use of liquid applied mem-
branes provides many advantages for
the applicator.

WELDING PROCEDURES –
IN EVERY ROOFING SYSTEM being installed, the Sika PVC and FPO
single ply membranes must always be securely welded together with
special welding equipment using hot air. The following methods are used
for welding – hand welding and automatic welding.
MANUAL / HAND WELDING

Manual hot air welding creates a se-
cure watertight membrane, particu-
larly around complex or difficult details
where access for automatic machine
welding is not possible.
Manual hot air welding is carried out in

three stages:
¬ Spot tacking the membrane sheets
in overlaps to prevent the membrane
sheets from moving during the weld-
ing process
¬ Welding of the rear seam to prevent
any migration of hot air during the
main welding operation
