Application

Typical uses include connecting balustrade supports to flat warm roofs.


Suitable for use with the following roof covering types:

  • Built-up and hot melt roofing systems.
  • Ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) roofing membrane.
  • Liquid applied roof coatings.
  • Polyisobutylene (PIB) roofing membrane.
  • Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) roofing membrane.
  • Styrene butadiene styrene (SBS) and atactic polypropylene (APP) modified bitumen membranes.
  • Thermoplastic polyethylene (TPE) roofing membrane.
  • Thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) roofing membrane.

Description

ROOFTRAK® IFP-BI integrated fixing point system for handrail and balustrade applications on warm and inverted roof constructions. The IFP-BI can be used in both horizontal (flat roof) and vertical (parapet wall) applications.


Features and benefits:

  • Thermally broken connection point.
  • Comprised of a 225 x 375 mm fixing plate with pre-insulated upstand post manufactured to suit insulation depth. Factory fitted membrane flange with two anchor points each with 2 no. M10 x20 blind threaded connection points. The fixing plate has 8 no. holes through which the plate is bolted to an extension piece manufactured to suit the thickness of the insulation.
  • To weather the fixing plate the IFP-BI is factory fitted with an appropriate flange material to enable it to be weathered and sealed to the main roof area.
  • A connection plate can be supplied in 10 mm-thick mild steel or stainless steel for connecting the balustrade to the IFP-BI.
  • Can also be used in inverted roof constructions.

Manufacturer guidance

Select material for weathering flange from the list below, or consult manufacturer and insert appropriate details.

Balustrade connection plate

Not required.

Mild steel.

Stainless steel.

Accessories

None.

Cap nut, IFP-CN.

Guidance for specification option:

Low profile fixing designed specifically for use with the IFP. Allows the use of M10 studding for where the IFP requires bolting to the structure. The rounded low profile cap nut will not damage the roofing membrane that sits over it.


  • Material: A2 grade stainless steel.
  • Size: Head diameter: 25 mm; shank (diameter x length): 14 x 20 mm; internal thread: M10.
  • Typical uses: for using M10 studding to secure the IFP to the building structure by means of bolts or toggles.

Toggle fixing, IFP-TG.

Guidance for specification option:

For use in conjunction with the IFP-CN cap nut and M10 studding to secure the IFP products to the building structure. Suitable where the underside of the roof deck is not accessible or where the roof deck does not provide adequate pullout values using screw type fixings.


  • Material: Bright zinc plated (BZP) steel.
  • Size: 68 x 17.5 x 15 mm.
  • Typical uses: to obtain improved pullout values for situation such as fixing to composite panels and balustrade applications.


Flange size

APP/ SBS modified bitumen membranes: 525 x 675 mm.

Single-ply membranes: 425 x 575 mm.

Anchor type:

304 stainless steel, machined finish.

Guidance for specification option:

Standard.

316L stainless steel.

Guidance for specification option:

For marine environments.

Fixing plate

Base section: mild steel, polyester powder-coated (PPC) finish; 225 x 375 mm.
Upstand section: mild steel, polyester powder-coated (PPC) finish; 240 x 90 mm x height variable to suit insulation depth.

Height

Variable to suit insulation depth.

Type

IFP-BI.

Guidance for specification option:

Designed for use on inverted flat roof constructions where it is fixed directly to the supporting roof deck below the insulation providing a connection point for balustrade supports.


Typical use: Connecting balustrade supports to a flat roof where resistance to a turning moment is required.


Designed for warm or inverted roof constructions on concrete or timber substrates.

Thermal break

5 mm HDPE.
