4、 standardized means to evaluate capability toseal around a fastener. Performance of this test method aftersubjecting the product to conditioning intended to simulateenvironmental stresses and strains is not prohibited.1.3 The text of this test method references notes andfootnotes which provide expla

Summary of Test Method4.1 The capability of asphalt-based roofing or waterproofingmaterials to seal around a penetra
9、ting fastener and prevent thepassage of liquid water at the fastener/material interface isdetermined by penetrating the material with a fastener, erectinga water column over that penetration, and monitoring theassembly for water passage for a period of time.4.2 The test method includes protocols tha

Significance and Use5.1 In some situations, penetration through asphalt-basedroofing or waterproofing materials by
11、 fasteners is a requiredpart of the material installation process or occurs duringinstallation of other system components. When fasteners pen-etrate the material as a purposeful and planned part of theconstruction process, it is reasonable to expect that materialsdesigned to limit migration of liqui
12、d water at the interfacebetween the penetrating fastener and the material will do so.This qualitative test method provides a means to evaluate theability of a material to limit water migration at fastenerpenetrations when tested under defined conditions.6.
