FOREST HILL, MD — The Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association (ARMA) has released a digital version of the "Residential Asphalt Roofing Manual – Design and Application Methods." This new format enables roofing professionals to access the publication directly on their mobile devices.
The manual serves as an essential guide to the proper design and application of residential asphalt roofing systems. By converting the popular resource into a digital download, ARMA aims to offer tools that further support contractors on-site, allowing easier access to reliable reference material.
