Low-slope Roofing System

Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention may include a low-slope roofing system, the system comprising a geogrid layer, and a first coverboard layer, wherein the geogrid layer is attached to the first coverboard layer. Aspects of the present invention may also include a method of assembling a low-slope roofing system, comprising attaching a first coverboard layer, and attaching a geogrid layer to the first coverboard layer.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A low-slope roofing system, the system comprising
 a geogrid layer, and   a first coverboard layer, wherein the geogrid layer is attached to the first coverboard layer.   
     
     
         2 . The low slope roofing system of  claim 1 , wherein
 the geogrid layer is attached to the first coverboard layer with adhesive.   
     
     
         3 . The low slope roofing system of  claim 1 , wherein the geogrid layer is attached to the first coverboard layer with fasteners. 
     
     
         4 . The low slope roofing system of  claim 1 , wherein the geogrid layer is attached to the first coverboard layer with fasteners and adhesive. 
     
     
         5 . The low slope roofing system of  claim 3 , wherein the fasteners are plate fasteners. 
     
     
         6 . The low slope roofing system of  claim 1 , further comprising
 a second coverboard layer.   
     
     
         7 . The low slope roofing system of  claim 5 , wherein the second coverboard layer is water-resistant. 
     
     
         8 . The low-slope roofing system of  claim 1 , wherein the geogrid layer has a thickness of between about 3.25-4.5 mm. 
     
     
         9 . A method of assembling a low-slope roofing system, comprising
 attaching a first coverboard layer, and   attaching a geogrid layer to the first coverboard layer.   
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the geogrid layer is attached to the first coverboard layer with adhesive. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the geogrid layer is attached to the first coverboard layer with fasteners. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the geogrid layer is attached to the first coverboard layer with fasteners and adhesive. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the fasteners are plate fasteners. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising attaching a second coverboard layer. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the second coverboard layer is water-resistant. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the geogrid layer has a thickness of between about 3.25-4.5 mm.
