    Sue,
    I'm confused. Are you intending to build an outdoor deck over a low-slope roof?

    If so, and if the low-slope roof is already installed, what type of roofing has been installed?

    I'm also confused by the phrase, "Flooring is Advantech." I've heard of Advantech subflooring, but I didn't know the company made flooring. What is this product, and where is it?

    See.. http://www.schluter.com for your answer. (Interior and Exterior assemblies)
    Personally, I would NEVER adhere any tile "DIRECTLY" to any wood underlayment, even though many builders do.
