Each year, multiple industry-leading associations and manufacturers show up to Washington D.C. to help protect and enhance all of our businesses. We've shared a few snippets from some industry-leading associations to highlight what is of the most importance at this year's gathering.
While installation errors lead to most metal roofing issues, panel side laps, incorrect panel profile selection, and fastener locations can be problematic for exposed fastener panel installations on lower roof slopes.
SPRI, the association representing sheet membrane and component suppliers to the commercial roofing industry, is reviewing and re-canvassing two key technical document for re-approval as American National Standards.
This code implies that all low-slope roof covering materials must be able to withstand typical impact loads, such as foot traffic, hail and driving rainstorms.
On-Demand As weather gets more extreme, roofs are being asked to withstand even more: manage more water, defend against larger hail and stay on during high winds. During this webinar, you will learn about the new wind requirements in ASCE 2022, best practices for designing for very severe hail, and ways to manage water from large rain events.
On-Demand The presentation will provide designers with specific items to include on their project for a more resilient roof design to resist wind, water and keep a building operable after a storm.
On-Demand This presentation is designed to cut through the confusion. It will provide clear definitions and performance insights for PVC, PVC KEE, and KEE membranes. Attendees will leave with precise, actionable specification language to ensure the roofing membrane installed on their project delivers the intended, long-term performance.
On-Demand In this webinar, Mark S. Graham, NRCA's vice president, technical services, will review cost effective measures than can enhance and optimize roof system performance. Topics to be addressed include roof decks, air- and vapor retarders, insulation, roof coverings and roof maintenance.
On-Demand The course provides guidelines to follow when designing, specifying and constructing these details to ensure design and code requirements are met while ensuring the long-term performance of the building enclosure.
This presentation examines the role of concrete tile roof systems as a high performing component of the building enclosure, with a specific focus on energy performance and solar compatibility. While roofing discussions often center on aesthetics or installation, this session shifts the focus to how roof system design influences heat transfer, peak energy demand, and long-term operational costs.
