To scope the technical approach for conducting a survey/assessment research project necessary to clearly define corrosion of exterior building system fasteners.

The TAC reviewed comments submitted on this subject and after lengthy discussion between the TAC members and interested persons as to which approach to take with the survey and how to reach specific interest groups, along with which research aspects to cover regarding how widespread the issue of nail corrosion extends, Mark Zehnal made a motion to follow through with the survey.  The motion is as follows:

 

Changing the title to remove the ‘Metal Ridge Vent System on Shingle and Tile Roofs’ to ‘Survey and Investigation of Corrosion of Fasteners Used to Secure Roofing Systems’ with the addition of the relevant sections of the Code (Florida Building Code) which would include Residential and Existing Building, both non-high-velocity and high-velocity.  Chuck Goldsmith seconded the motion.
