The forces of nature have reminded us once again of the critical need for foresight in facility management. As we experienced the unpredictability of heavy rainfalls in the southwest and hail storms leaving their mark across the mid-west, it becomes increasingly clear that proactive strategies are not just beneficial—they're essential. Our focus is on empowering facility managers and engineers to develop a tailored asset management plan that addresses your unique challenges.
Below, explore our comprehensive roof system selection guide, uncover key strategies poised to reduce costs in your paving projects, and gain valuable insights from our field consultants' observations.
Making the Right Choice
Every building is different, needing careful evaluation and a personalized strategy for choosing a roof system. That's why our Roof System Selection Guide is crafted to assist you in comparing features and identifying the ones most crucial for your building.
This webinar will dive deeper into the roof system selection process for all but we will be highlighting Healthcare and Food Processing/Manufacturing facilities as they have especially unique needs. It will be presented by Jennifer Stephan and James Santiago.
Paving projects can pose challenges with unexpected problems and budget overruns. Senior Consultant, Troy Kaiser, discusses strategies to mitigate risks like cost overruns and change orders in pavement construction. Highlighting the significance of geotechnical exploration in design to develop comprehensive plans for accurate bidding and project clarity. Unit price bidding and contingency items help control costs, while quality contractor selection and project oversight ensure high-quality work. Strategic planning can minimize unforeseen costs, protecting budgets and pavement quality.
Torch applications for modified systems have their place and purpose, but can also be dangerous if not installed correctly. By adhering to specified installation methods, we were able to prevent a potential fire and ensure project integrity.
During a routine observation, a critical oversight was identified - the DensDeck cover board was missing during a KEE membrane installation. A cover board is integral to enhancing a roof's resilience against weather, external fire, and foot traffic. Correcting this oversight ensured the roof's durability and expected lifespan, and secured clients investment.
