All field sheets incorporate 6 control lines for overlap and fastener placement.
A flat roof that had been over coated with a liquid based system which itself is breaking down a bonded overlay would not be suitable although with some preparatory works a mechanically fastened overlay system might be an option.
Video of the day.
