ASTM D7052/D7052M-17

1.1 This test method covers the determination of impact resistance of new low slope roof membranes when applied directly over rigid insulation or cover board, or structural concrete, lightweight insulating concrete, gypsum, cementitious wood fiber or wood roof decks. The procedures were developed to determine the potential for puncture or fracture of the new roof membrane resulting from impacts by free falling steel balls resulting in specific impact energies when the new roof membrane is applied over its tested substrate within an assembly.
