ROOFTECH performed consulting services for KHA related to the design and construction of the roof system. The roof line is one of the important design elements of this building. One of our main challenges was to design the edge detail to meet the aesthetic goals while maintaining waterproofing integrity.

        One Shell Square, New Orleans, Louisiana

ROOFTECH performed emergency evaluation services, design, and inspections on these roofs. They sustained significant damage in August 2005 from Hurricane Katrina. Being the tallest building in Louisiana at just less than 700 feet and its location on the coast in a hurricane prone region subjects the roof to significant wind uplift pressures. The roof design had to sustain the wind uplift pressures while maintaining a “zero” edge metal profile at the perimeter of the roofs.

Flight Simulator Building, American Airlines, Fort Worth, Texas

ROOFTECH performed the roof design, inspection, and testing for the replacement of the roofs on this building. The rooftop units supported the computerized flight training equipment that had to operate 24/7 during construction. The units were located in a recessed “pit” which had improper drainage. Our solution solved the drainage/roofing issues while providing a better aesthetic solution.  We covered these areas with standing seam metal roofs while providing ventilation for the units.

Columbia Border Station, Laredo, Texas

Field observations were provided to ensure that the installation of the roofing system met the project requirements.

Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad, Fort Worth, Texas

ROOFTECH performed design, bidding/negotiation, and construction administration services for the roof replacement of the Technology Office Building. A limited budget, energy savings goals, and inadequate overflow systems drove the solutions for this project. We were able to reduce costs by leaving the existing roofing in place while still obtaining a 20 year NDL warranty. All of the work had to be constructed while maintaining the operation of the 210,000 square foot facility.

Northwest Independent School District, Justin, Texas

ROOFTECH performed investigation, design, bidding/negotiation, and construction administration for the reroofing of this school. This project included the retrofit of 200,000 sq. ft. of roofing. The 25 year-old roofs were trapezoidal metal panels installed over open purlins which had been leaking for the last 15 years. Our design included installing insulation between the existing panel ribs to meet energy codes and installing a fully adhered fleece-back 80 mil PVC roof system with ribs.

North Park Center – Phase 1 (Shopping Mall), Dallas, Texas

ROOFTECH performed design, bidding/negotiation, and construction administration for the reroofing of a portion of this popular shopping mall. The project included the replacement of 84,400 sq. ft. of roofing on 11 different roof areas. The mall was built in 1979, and the roofs were designed with limited slope because they had a gravel covered, coal tar pitch roofing system. The system had no provisions for overflow, thus the roofs had never met code requirements for drainage which we corrected. 

Triumph Aerostructures (Vought Aircraft), Grand Prairie, Texas

ROOFTECH performed investigation, design, and construction administration for the roofs on 6 buildings, comprising 449,500 square feet. The 6 buildings were split into 3 packages with different contractors. Some of these buildings had “critical” contents that could be damaged by something as small as dust; therefore interior protection was a major factor on all buildings. New roofing systems ranged from retrofits with a 60 mil fully-adhered TPO to replacement with multi-ply modified bitumen roofs.

Richardson Independent School District, Richardson, Texas

ROOFTECH has performed testing, investigation, design, bidding/negotiation, construction administration since 1998 for RISD.
