Abstract
Roofing screeds have until recently been produced in the main from concrete based materials. Water trapped within the screed has given rise to problems of dampness within the building and, it has been shown, markedly diminshed their insulating properties. A dry, bitumen based screed material has been developed in the UK which has largely overcome these faults. It is easy to apply and can be readily covered with standard waterproofing systems.
