Description of Project
The existing built-up roofs are in very poor condition. Water routinely leaks into labs on the top floor, as well as in the mechanical room, requiring costly repairs. The insulation is saturated with water and has lost its insulating properties, thereby increasing energy costs. Damage to the interior continues, along with lab equipment and experiment damage. This project will remove all roofs except the cooling tower roof and replace with a new roofing system. It is estimated that just over 45,000 square feet of roof will be replaced by this project.
