 As a result of a number of past hailstorms, the City of Greenfield has recieved multiple questions regarding ice protection when replacing roofs on structures. The 2005 Indiana Building does require ice protection on all new roofs as stated in section R905.2.7.1

 

905.2.7.1 Ice protection.
In areas where the average daily temperature in January is 25°F (-4°C) or less or when
Table R301.2(1) criteria so designates, an ice barrier that consists of a least two layers
of underlayment cemented together or of a self-adhering polymer modified bitumen
sheet, shall be used in lieu of normal underlayment and extend from the eave's edge to
a point at least 24 inches (610 mm) inside the exterior wall line of the building.
Exception: Detached accessory structures that contain no conditioned floor area.
