NORWOOD, Mass. - To better support the needs of the roofing industry, FM Approval is now allowing roofing professionals free, unrestricted access to RoofNav, its Web roofing tool. The comprehensive, online time-saving tool provides roofing professionals with all the engineering and technical information on more than 6,000 FM-approved roofing products and 180,000 roofing assemblies. It also makes available the 15 Property Loss Prevention Data Sheets most often used by the roofing industry. The data sheets comprise hundreds of pages of engineering guidelines based on the organization’s 170 years of property protection research. The site also uses a ratings calculator to determine the proper roof classifications for fire, hail and wind uplift, producing one document that contains all the information contractors need to assemble an FM-approved roof.
