High-tech solutions to your roofing problems

Article Abstract:

More roofing contractors are installing built-up roofing (BUR) and modified bitumen systems, according to the 1998 State of the Industry Report by Roofing Siding Insulation magazine. Hybrid systems, a combination of BUR base sheet and modified bitumen cap, are installed by 90% of commercial roofing contractors, up 4% since 1996. Contractors also report that modified bitumens are the most versatile among roofing materials.

Exploring new opportunities with SPF and polymer technologies

Article Abstract:

Current polymer technologies can enhance the performance of BUR, modified bitumen and single plies as labor costs for sprayed polyurethane foam (SPF) account to only 10%-15%, which is lower than 50% or more for other systems. Labors costs could be reduced further by employing robotic equipment for SPF, which can be utilized to insulate and provide another layer of waterproofing redundancy within modified bitumen, single plies and BUR.
