Maximizing the Value From Commercial Roof Systems

摘要

The greatest return on a roofing investment comes from optimizing the interaction of system components for a given building and climate zone. Because there is no single solution, the roofing industry offers many choices-including white, black, single ply and bituminous systems. When making a decision on roofing, building owners should ensure that their suppliers have the necessary technical expertise to assess the component interactions that determine service life, sustainability, and life cycle cost. Owners should also ensure that their system is designed by a certified roofing designer or architect and installed by a qualified roofing contractor.
