To obtain a copy of a specific publication, users should contact the publication's publisher directly.

Abstract
Although many roof designers and construction professionals understand the basic meaning of the dew point temperature, there remains a real need for greater awareness about how to accurately perform and demonstrate the necessary calculations. This author's preferred method is to graphically illustrate the process. This allows one to accurately determine the value in relation to above-deck insulated, low-slope built-up roofing(BUR) assemblies.
