"To provide high-quality design service to clients, someone in the architect's office should possess a general knowledge of all low-slope roof system options and roof design criteria."
—from the monograph

To select the most appropriate roof system for a project, an architect should have at least a general understanding of available membrane options. And Low-Slope Roofing II, the companion monograph to Low-Slope Roofing I, was written precisely with this objective in mind.

Low-Slope Roofing II received the Construction Specifications Institute's Publications Commendation, Special Publication in April 2003.

Features

• LSR II describes unique alternatives to traditional built-up roofing (BUR), including modified bitumen, single-ply, sprayed polyurethane foam, metal, and liquid applied systems.
• Additional chapters look at re-roofing, sustainable considerations, construction contract administration, and warranty issues related to roofing projects.
• A detailed glossary of terms, bibliography, and index are provided.
