G. E. Courville chaired a meeting of the IEA Annex 19 on Low Slope Roofs held at the Chalmers University in Goteborg, Sweden on June 6-7, 1989. Representatives from the United States, United Kingdom, Sweden Denmark, and Switzerland were in attendance. The Annex reviewed material prepared by different countries for the scheduled Annex document on ''Good Practices for Design, Installation, and Maintenance of Insulated Roofs.'' The format for additional background data was agreed upon. On June 14, Courville presented a briefing for the IEA/BCS Executive Committee on Annex Activities. Courville visited the Norwegian Building Research Institute (NBI). NBI built the world's first environmental chamber for roofs in the early 1970s and continue to be innovative in buildings research and development. They produce and sell an excellent grade of heat flux transducers and various laboratory testing equipment. E. Paulsen of NBI has developed a roof uplift test procedure that is potentially useful in the US. Courville visited with Roger Bonafont of Ruberoid Limited and Nick Cook of BRE. Both these groups have experience and laboratory data on uplift testing which will be conveyed to the Steering Committee for a workshop on Uplift Testing in the United States.
