GAF Upcoming Roofing 101 Webinar
Description
Thursday, August 22, 2024 | 3:00-4:00pm EST
With a wide variety of roof systems used on commercial buildings, selecting low-slope roofing assemblies can be complicated. Starting with four unique roofing case studies to review design considerations, we will ask the infamous question “What if?” Attendees will leave this interactive session with a better understanding of best practices in low-slope roof system design, including ways to establish air tightness, reduce moisture intrusion, and lower the overall risk of failure on your next project.
This free live course is brought to you through a partnership with GAF. By registering for this course, you grant AIA permission to share your name and email address with GAF.
Learning Objectives
-Understand how design parameters, such as building and rooftop use, as well as climate and building location influence roof design decisions.
-Recognize the basic components of low-slope roofing including different insulations, coverboards, and membrane types.
-Differentiate between attachment methods of roofing systems including insulations and membrane attachment options.
-Utilize case studies to understand how decisions made during the design process can impact the performance of the roof.
