Preface
This is the second edition of CSA A123.16, Asphalt-coated glass-base sheets. It supersedes the first edition, published in 1988 under the title Asphalt-Coated Glass-Base Sheet. It is one of a series of CSA Standards on bituminous roofing materials.

Scope
1.1
This Standard covers three types of asphalt-coated glass-base sheets (asphalt-impregnated and -coated glass-roll roofing) surfaced with insoluble inorganic mineral matter:
(a) Type I: a lightweight base sheet intended primarily for use as an underlayment for shingles.
(b) Type II: a standard-weight roofing base sheet intended for use as the first ply in a roofing membrane over insulation.
(c) Type III: a venting base sheet surfaced with fine mineral matter on top and mineral granules on the bottom. This type is used in built-up roofing systems as a first ply to relieve pressure through lateral vapour movement.
Type III felt can be unperforated or, if used for spot mopping, contain perforations of a size specified in Table 1.
