[R] Using lubridate to increment date by business days only

Hello,

I know how to increment a date by calendar date:

ticker$ldate <- ticker$tdate + days(5)

How do I increment it by business days only so that week-ends are not
counted?

So for example friday november 2 + 5days becomes friday november 9 & not
wednesday nov 7.

Thanks for your help.
