Oregon R327 profiled-roof ember-closure path
Where locally adopted, Oregon R327 requires spaces between a roof covering and roof deck to resist flame and ember intrusion, be fireblocked, or use the named cap-sheet path.
A documented closure component addresses only the profile-space detail. The roof covering, deck, cap sheet or fireblocking, fasteners, and installation geometry remain separate checks for the building official.
Published requirement text
“Where the roof profile allows a space between the roof covering and roof decking, the spaces shall be constructed to prevent the intrusion of flames and embers, be fireblocked with approved materials, or have one layer of minimum 72-pound mineral-surfaced nonperforated cap sheet”
