EN This manuscript provides an overview of the most commonly-produced bitumen roofing sheets, focusing on the types of reinforcements used for their production and the reinforcements’ effects on the durability of tensile mechanical properties of roofing sheets under thermal loads. The paper includes the analysis of working conditions of roof coverings in the mid-European transitional climate, i.e., exposed to temperatures passing through 0 °C for three seasons in a year, periodic exposure to negative temperatures reaching −15 °C and positive temperatures up to +70 °C, justifying the above-mentioned emphasis on thermal load. It draws attention to technical problems related to the cooperation of roofing sheets with roofing substrates, with particular emphasis on concrete substrates. For the purposes of the work, the analyses were carried out with regard to the assessment of the service life of roof coverings made of various reinforcements working in conditions of variable temperatures and thus exposed to the transfer of thermal movements of substrate plates. The analyses also included the impact of different coefficients of thermal expansion of the materials in contact with other materials within roof coverings on the incidence of damage to cover layers. Particular attention was paid to the conditions resulting from the production process of roofing sheets effect on the durability of roof coverings made of these materials. Additionally, there were set directions for further work to calculate the impact of stresses, arising in layers of roof coverings during their operation in changeable negative and positive temperatures, on the incidence of mechanical damage to these coverings.
