Abstract
Fasteners are the key component of nearly every type of roofing system. Proper selection is imperative if the system is to perform to its full potential. It is very important to work closely with the roof cover manufacturer to make sure the right fastener is being used, as well as the correct stress plate, and that you are following the manufacturer’s specific fastening patterns and installation procedures, as they are not as generic as they once were.
