WHY DO WE HAVE RESPONSIBILITY ISSUES RIGHT FROM THE START
Every Salesman.... sells his own stuffAND
Every Design Discipline Designs...From Their Own Perspective
ANDEvery Trade That Works on the Roof...
Acts on Their OwnUNLESS
All Parties are Held Responsible for How Their Work & Designs Impact Roof Performance
Wouldn’t This be a Good Time for a Roof Success Co-ordination Meeting with All Parties?

A Roof “Assembly” is: All of the components necessary to keep water out of the building from the “roof” covering.
AndAll of the components necessary to keep water out of the roof “assembly” from the
inside.
WHAT IS A ROOF “ASSEMBLY”?
AND WHAT DOES IT DO?
A roof failure is a failure of any roof assembly component, regardless of it’s location OR who installed it.

CHAPTER 15ROOF ASSEMBLIES AND ROOFTOP STRUCTURES
Oregon Structural Specialty Code
DEFINITIONROOF ASSEMBLY; A system designed
to provide weather protection and resistance to wind loads. A roof assembly
includes the roof deck, vapor retarder, substrate or thermal barrier, insulation
and roof covering.
![Page 9: Presented by Keith Schaber President](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568163c7550346895dd4fa42/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ROOF ASSEMBLY?
• Decking, plumbing, sheet metal, seismic anchors, HVAC, electrical, skylights and insulation are part of a ROOF ASSEMBLY.
• Carpenters, Electricians, Welders, HVAC Contractors, Plumbers, Sheet Metal Workers, and General Contractors work impacts the ROOF ASSEMBLIES PERFORMANCE.
• Manufacturers, Mechanical Engineers, Structural Engineers and Architects designs affect the long term performance of the roof assembly.
Roofers play a very small part compared to the whole…..

DISTRICTS ARE CONSTANTLY PRESSURED BY MANY PARTIES
Have you heard of any of these…• Ours is the best- It’s new, cheap, looks good, works well every place and installs in any kind of weather• We’ve got a building to build- We want a roof we can install in any kind of weather.• We’ve got a guaranteed maximum price – we didn’t budget for all the stuff you want• We’ve got to have a roof that looks this way- don’t ruin your schools great design
YOU HAVE THE SAME RIGHTS AS ANY CONSUMER… TO GET WHAT MEETS YOUR NEEDS

1. Seldom meets code for wind, slope, vapor retarder, puncture resistance, and plumbing.
2. Requires additional insulation to be equal in energy efficiency to fully adhered assemblies.
3. Fosters condensation where ponding water occurs without adequate insulation or venting between vapor barrier and roof covering.
4. Poor base of financially responsible contractors with good performance records.
5. Spotty service performance.
Currently, mechanically attached recovers are the cheapest and riskiest to install and poorest in energy conservation in Oregon.

energy or condensation.2. Has anyone discussed roofing over
vented spaces and the needed re-engineering required for cool roofs.
3. Has anyone disclosed how pondingwater on cool roofs can create condensation.

ROOF ASSEMBLIES IN OREGON NEED VAPOR RETARDERS
This new school had 2 kinds of roof assemblies..The insulation under the built-up roof assembly
had a vapor retarder.The insulation under the metal roof assembly had none..

CODE COMPLIANCE1312.1.4 Moisture Control. A 1-perm vapor retarder shall be installed on the warm side (in winter) in all exterior floors, walls and ceilings of heated buildings.
MOST SCHOOLS IN OREGON ARE HEATED
(There is only one exception which is for insulation installed in ceilings in an existing structure and where ventilation has been provided as specified in Section 1203).

ROOF DRAINAGE. Roofs shall be sloped a minimum of 1 unit vertical in 48 units horizontal (2-percent slope) for drainage unless designed for water accumulation in accordance with Section 1611.2 and approved by the building official. (requires verification to preclude progressive deflection)

ASHLAND EXPERIENCE
Roof Prioritization Were Misidentified by Architect/Salesman Based On The Assumption That New Roofs Had To
Be Better Than Old Ones.
Old Roofs Were Best – New Ones Were Not The Best.

ASHLAND EXPERIENCEPasses Bond Levy With Reroofing Projects
Prioritized by Salesman for Architect With No Budgets For Repairs or Maintenance
Roof recovers developed mold within a few years. The mold, of course, was not covered by their warranty.

ASHLANDS NEW CONSTRUCTION EXPERIENCEArchitect and General Contractor Told District Their Request For Winter Time
Construction Methods Were Cost Prohibitive
Their Winter Time “Friendly” Roof Resulted in Condensation and Leak Problems. Neither
Were Covered by Warranty.

ASHLAND’S ONGOING EXPERIENCE
•Manufacturer’s refusal to honor warranties for both roofs and roof maintenance systems.
•Architect’s refusal to comply with District’s Standards and reluctance to be responsible for the decisions they forced on District.
•General Contractor’s insistence to stay on schedule at roofs thus districts expense.
•Roofs in District with commissioning in design are out performing roofs with none.
