Commercial and Strata Property Roofing: understanding flat roof systems & maintenance

Posted: Apr 07, 2011 |

]]>

Several important factors come into play in protecting a commercial or strata property investment against the elements. Strategically choosing the type of roofing system used and having a proactive maintenance plan is are two very important factors. The performance of a roof has a profound impact on property operations, tenant & resident satisfaction and property owner costs.

This article contains a summary of the information our property managers share with clients seeking to understand their roofing system and the importance of maintenance. Kazawest often shares this type of information with clients such as commercial building owners & lease holders through to strata councils & residents of condominiums. Read on to get the information you need to understand flat roof system types and the maintenance that goes with them.

Flat roofs are the most common type of roofing system in use for commercial properties and certain types of strata developments such as low-rise apartments and high-rise condominiums. The most prevalent 5 types of flat roofing systems are:

Built Up Roofing (also known as BUR)

Modified Bitumen Roofing

Ballasted Roofing

Single Ply Roofing

Green Roofing Systems

Built Up Roofing (BUR) is also referred to as a tar and gravel roof. It involves a tar infused felt being rolled onto the roof with overlap between layers. Liquid tar is applied to the surface and in between the overlapping layers. Depending on conditions, generally this type of roof lasts 10 to 15 years and then will need additional layers added. A topping material, such as small rock, can be used to protect the roofing system and prolong the useful life of the roof.

Modified Bitumen Roofing is a hybrid of the BUR system where the material is manufactured in a factory and comes in rolls to be applied to the roof deck. The material itself is modified tar or asphalt with rubber typically added for improved performance. Normally a BUR roof underlay is used before the application of the modified bitumen which is applied with adhesive, torch, or hot mopping. A topping material is normally required to protect the roofing system. The lifespan of this type of roof typically exceeds 20 years.

Ballasted Roofing is a membrane roofing system that is usually loose laid on the roof deck and held in place by the weight of a topping such as small rocks or precast concrete pavers. A common material used as such a membrane is EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer). Seams and the membrane are joined with an adhesive. When well maintained, a ballasted roof will normally last over 30 years.

Single Ply Roofing systems simply a single ply sheets of a roofing membrane made from several types of synthetic polymers. During the installation, they are sealed at joints to create waterproofing. While they typically come with a higher price tag, you get what you pay for. Single ply membrane roofs can outlast just about any other roof type, however, it is critical to choose a single ply membrane with a heavy base layer and strong knit design. These membranes are generally excellent in UV and tear resistance; two factors that drive their longevity. In theory, with proper care and maintenance, a single ply membrane roof can last over 50 years. In practice, the better engineered ones were invented about 25 years ago and today the failure & replacement rate can be as low as 1%.

Green Roofing Systems have been used for centuries in Europe to reduce power consumption and manage the heat of city buildings. This trend has been catching in North America in recent years. Green roofs slow roof water drainage down, allowing vegetation to store the water and have water evaporate to the atmosphere directly from the roof. This reduces the burden on both building and city drainage systems tremendously. The basis for a green roofing system is typically the same, mechanically speaking, as a ballasted roof. Instead of the use of loose rock, soil and vegetation are applied. However, the key difference is that the material for the roof also must serve a dual function as a root barrier stopping penetration of roots into the roofing. It is advisable to consider the use of a roofing membrane specially designed for green roofing. A well designed and installed green roof can last over 20 years.

Maintenance

As can be expected from Kazawest, no article on building materials and technology should end without a mention of maintenance. All roofing needs to have a solid preventative maintenance program in place including the removal of debris and dirt, inspection for damage, as well as the cleaning of downspouts and gutters regularly.

The roof and flashing (the sheet metal which surrounds joins and corners and directs water away from the roof) must have damage or cracking repaired at least annually. The lifespan of the roof should be assessed as part of the maintenance process and a provision for upgrade or replacement should be a part of the budgeting and capital planning process for the property.

In the case of a leak, no matter how small, the source of the leak should be investigated and rectified and the area it appeared (e.g. ceiling tile or wall) should be restored. Small leaks can easily turn into large leaks in a rainstorm. The importance of restoring ceiling tile or wall is not only aesthetic, it is also important to allow the prompt identification of any further leakage.

In closing, by being informed about your roofing system, its maintenance needs and your future options at upgrade or replacement time, you can ensure you will make better informed decisions about your property investment. If you have questions about this article or any property issue, please contact your Kazawest property manager.

It not only serve as the purpose of decorating our home and garden but it makes us feel good and close to nature with the lush green flora around us.

Landscaping a garden is mainly carried out with flooring the surface with the help of concrete or Natural paving stones, an interlocking natural paver used commonly in exterior landscaping applications, offering an alternative to plain concrete or asphalt with its mesmerizing texture and designs. Moreover theses concrete natural paving stonescan also be used for walkways, patios, pool decks and driveways, airport or loading docks. Regarding the variety of applications, naturalpave stones landscape gardening is gaining popularity not only in houses but also in places of mass gathering like market squares, offices, airports etc. They enhanced the visual appeal of the landscape garden.

Another charming design type of landscape gardening is patio, a Spanish word referring to “backyard” or “back garden”. Patio is a typically paved outdoor space generally used for dining or recreational activities adjoining a residence. It’s a roofless inner courtyard found in Spanish houses between the residence and garden. Among these designs Essex patios can be mentioned. Offering wide range of beautiful plants, shrubs and trees on either side of the pathways adding tidiness to the garden, freshening up the existing landscape. Essex patio’s miraculous design draws everyone’s eyes towards it and leaves them speechless murmuring pleasant nothings. Nowadays the trends of landscape gardening are no more typical to Essex. In fact the trend is growing everywhere, throughout the world.

Thus there are different types of innovation in the field of the art and science of landscape gardening. Not only it just takes care of the beauty and aesthetics but it does a great job of preserving the rich varieties of plants and shrubs. Patios essex as well as natural paving stonesare new inventions in the field of landscape gardening.

A crawler, which is very powerful and attached with a blade, is called a bulldozer. Even though any heavy engineering vehicle is known as bulldozer, it is actually a tractor with a dozer blade.

Combat engineering vehicles are used for engineering work in the battlefield and for transporting sappers. They are mostly armoured vehicles.

A compact excavator is a wheeled or tracked vehicle with a backfill blade and swing boom. It is also known as mini excavator. The functions and movements of the machines are carried out by transferring hydraulic fluid. This makes a compact hydraulic excavator different from other construction equipment.

To compact gravel, dirt, asphalt and concrete in construction work and road laying a road roller which is also known as roller-compactor would be used.

National Rotating Equipment an ISO 9000:2000 registered company, was established in 1997 due to the ever-increasing demand for a quality reliable service partner to the Industry.

A crane is a derrick or tower equipped with pulleys and cables for lowering and lifting materials. The cranes used in construction industry are mostly temporary structures.

Dragline excavation systems are heavy equipment mostly used in surface mining and civil engineering. The smaller type of dragline excavator is used for port and road construction. The larger type dragline excavator is used in strip-mining operations for coal extraction.

The founders of the company, who together have many years experience in industry, felt a definite need for a service partner to increase the efficiencies around the after sales service excellence to our ever changing market.

An excavator commonly known as a digger is an engineering vehicle, with a cab mounted on a rotating platform or pivot, and a backhoe on top of an undercarriage with wheels or tracks.

In untamed regions which are being reclaimed for construction, a feller buncher, a machine having an attachment, which fells trees, is used.

A forklift, lift truck or forklift truck is an industrial truck used to pick up and transport heavy material using steel forks under the material to be lifted. The most common usage of a forklift is to move materials stored on pallets.

A loader also known as a bucket loader, front-end loader, scoop loader, shovel, or front loader is a type of tractor using buckets, which can be tilted to lift and move material.

A paver is used to spread asphalt on roadways.

Construction equipment range from the very heavy equipment to the portable and mobile lighter equipment, some of them with a precise description of their functions are detailed below.

Engineering equipment with a front bucket/shovel and a small backhoe in the rear combined with a tractor is known as backhoe loader. It is mostly used in small construction sites and in urban engineering such as fixing city roads.

Building Efficient Horse Barns

Building Efficient Horse Barns

Future champions deserve royal treatment. Someone who helps you in your work needs must be treated the same as well. So why put your horses in barns that are not liveable? But before moving them from their makeshift barns to the most expensive and priciest horse barns you could find, there’s a lot of things to consider. Well-structured, well-constructed horse barns are well-ventilated, light, roomy, comfortable to work and stay in. Top horseman and horse barn builder Champ Hough even suggests that horse barns should be as homey to your horses as your house feels like home to you. He shares several tips from over thirty horse barn building experience.
Hough suggests that before deciding on your plan, an appropriate site must be first decided. By appropriate, it means a site that would give your horse barns the much-needed air circulation and proper drainage. This would prevent epidemics within your barn. A good site would also provide your barn easy access to utilities, your driveway, or the road. Hough recommends orienting barns with these in mind. For aesthetic purposes, keep useful but unsightly features like the manure bin or can far from roads and your house but near your barn. Delivery docks and ramps should also be situated in the same manner. He also reminds builders not to mix delivery and horse traffic for less inconvenience. In doing barn layouts, Hough shares his trick. He suggests minimizing steps or the distance between barn workstations literally. This means that water stations, feeding stations, and grooming stations must be within reach or near each other. He also recommends, confining or isolating potentially messy areas like stalls and bathing areas to reduce dirt in the general barn. Clustering stalls is a good option.
Horse barns are usually built with 12 ft aisles but Hough insist that it is better if you give your barn aisles another couple of feet. This will enable machinery to enter the barn, and will give horses and caretakers ample room to maneuver inside. A wider doorway will also let in more light and improve air circulation. Installing screens on windows and sliding doors will reduce fly population while installing exhaust fans would let hot air out to be replaced by cooler air. Hough suggest the use of pavers and asphalt on horse barn floors for better drainage. Plus, these materials are easier on your horses’ legs.In time, you’ll get the benefit of having less vet bills, less upkeep and maintenance costs, and an increase in property value. With proper horse barns, your horses will be healthier, breed better, and have champion quality offsprings.

Diamond Core Bits and Blades: What Makes Them Cut Faster and Last Longer?

Diamond Core Bits and Blades: What Makes Them Cut Faster and Last Longer?

Selecting the right Diamond Core Bits/Blades for your application is a key to obtaining desired diamond drilling results. Diamond Core Bits are used for core drilling concrete, cutting into highways, runaways, dams, building bridges, walls, floors, drainage pipes, pavers, and field stones. They are manufactured to tackle a broad range of applications, for a variety of drilling jobs including high reinforced concrete and other masonry materials.

Consider the following tips affecting Diamond Core Bits and Blades performance -

1. Types of Bits and Blades:

Diamond bits and blades are manufactured by brazing diamond segments to the end of a perimeter of a steel disc or to the end of a steel tube. Each diamond segment comprises several diamond particles held together by a metal bond. Different drill bits are used, depending on the material being drilled. To cut types of concrete, manufactures vary the composition of the size and concentration of diamonds, metal bond and its types. Usually contractors prefer to use the Granite Assassinbladeengineered to the highest specifications. This blade utilizes the extreme high strength, thermal stabilized Saw-Grade Diamonds in the segments.

2. Costs of the Bits and Blades:

Cost is also one of the criteria affecting diamond blades and bits longevity and performance. Having a laborer endeavor for this sort of job with a drill and hammer entails more time than the use of diamond drill that was earlier employed. You need to know what is more important: initial cost of the blade or the total saving cost. Depending on the nature of your work, requirement and convenience, you must select the blades and core drill bits. For instance, where small cutting job is required, you can buy the economy blade.

3. Factors affecting cutting performance:

Type of Aggregate

Soft aggregates such as limestone will cost less than cutting concrete with hard aggregates. Since, hard aggregates shorten blade life and slow the cutting rate, so cutting concrete with a hard aggregate such as quartz will cost more than cutting concrete with a soft aggregate such as limestone.

Size of Aggregate matters

Size of aggregate is an also important factor determining what makes diamond cutting blades and bits cut faster and last longer. Some basic materials used in construction are sand, gravel, crushed stone, slag, and recycled concrete. Aggregates are the basic input materials to concrete and asphalt, as well as base materials under foundations and roads. The size and type of aggregate have a great impact on the overall hardness of the concrete, and the aggregate can make up as much as 75% of the total volume. As a general rule, larger aggregates tend to make the concrete act harder, slowing your cutting, and vice-versa. Also, the type of stone used as the aggregate has an impact on the hardness of the concrete as well.

Operating speed

There is an inverse relationship between cutting speed and blade life. If a saw operator makes a change, such as increasing cutting pressure to make a blade cut faster, blade life will tend to be shortened as a result. Likewise, if an operator wants to extend the blade’s life, he can reduce cutting pressure and cut slower. Each job is different, and the labor cost also needs to be added to the equation to arrive at the most cost-efficient solution.

With a detailed planning and understanding, you can successfully select the right power core drill bits to make a difference in the success of your drilling operations. There are perfect bits/blades for every buyer in the market. The catch is how to find it. Today’s contractors, and manufacturers involved in the diamond core operation encounter a wide variety of applications and challenges. The mounting speed of the ever increasing and advanced materials transform the way we look at the diamond core bits industry.

Mark Bruddy is an expert who previously worked in a manufacturer and distributing company of diamond concrete blades and diamond core bits. He has years of experience of working with this hard material and its available benefits.

What was I compelled to do? Create tracks. The course creation here is nothing short of impressive. You choose an environment, drive a paver around to lay asphalt, and then double back to raise the terrain and place props such as buildings and trees. There were no loads as I plopped down trees or dropped item pickups — it’s silky smooth and you can create some stuff that really looks great.

You can create Mods and karts as well, but some of the luster is lost here. When you put an eye on a face, you can’t resize it; you’re stuck with a bunch of pre-created stickers and you can’t change their color schemes; and it just seems like every asset and creation I made was a bit blurry.

They didn’t pop, and thus I never really cared about anything I cranked out. They were easy to make and the program ran well, but it wasn’t awesome.

In the same “OK but not awesome” boat is ModNation’s multiplayer. There’s a full Infrastructure mode here that’ll allow you to race your PSP brethren, but there’s no sense of community. For example, you can rate other people’s creations, but the little info boxes that pop up on them host blurry art.

Or when you set out to race, you can’t chat via voice or text. Furthermore, you’re earning experience points and leveling-up, but you have to click on your profile and the other players’ profiles to see these stats, rather than have them pop up elsewhere.

Garage Construction Plan ? How to Do it Right the First Time

Garage Construction Plan ? How to Do it Right the First Time

Most people who design their own garage construction plan often neglect the design of an aesthetical driveway to go with it. Most end up with a fairly uninspiring concrete or gravel driveway – either because these seem to be about the only available option to them, or they are simply too exhausted by the construction of the main building itself, and they have simply not much time and energy left to design a decent driveway. And this is a pity.

Concrete driveway

To start off, let’s not vilify the concrete option: it’s still a good option. Concrete is affordable, easy to clean, durable and drains water well. Unfortunately, laying concrete – or even asphalt involves a lot of work and you will probably require the services of a contractor. For these reasons, many people have decided, in their garage construction plan, against concrete and opted for a variety of other building materials for their driveway.

You may not know it yet but there are a huge number of other good alternatives for garage driveways while selecting garage construction plan.

Twin concrete strips

First, one can build, in the garage construction plan, a twin concrete strips. This means pouring two 2-foot wide concrete strips just enough for your tires to drive along. The most obvious advantage of this design, is that a twin concrete strip design is superbly affordable than laying concrete over the entire garage driveway width. It is also perfect for someone who does not have much time and energy left after a long garage designing exercise: just lay two parallel strips of concrete or asphalt and you are done!

The only problem with twin strips is that they easily sink – either under the pressure of your car or they simply disappear under the vegetation if the garden is poorly maintained.

Crushed limestone

The second driveway design option in garage construction plan is using crushed limestone. Here you can use a very wide variety of rocks: gravel, crushed rock and pebbles. This option is not always easy to maintain as the gravel tend to spread around and beyond the driveway itself. There is also the problem of weeds growing through the driveway over the years.

Acid stained concrete

Another great driveway idea I have seen recently is acid-stained concrete. It’s very aesthetical but should me done by a specialist because of the obvious hazard of using a large quantity of acid.

Paver blocks

Let me also mention a beautiful option which blends the benefits of paver blocks with a nice green look: turfstone pavers. This type of garage driveway material lasts long and drains fairly well. But if you are on a limited budget then this might not be a good option for you: turfstone pavers are quite expensive.

Many people finally choose to go for the fairly classic paver blocks. Let’s admit it; this is still a design great option, even if it involves a lot of additional work. Naturally, paving blocks are still pricier than concrete or asphalt. This type of driveway also last very long and can be a great aesthetic option in a garage construction plan.

We would have been still constructing the Panama Canal but for the modern gigantic construction equipments. These Herculean machines made life easy for us by their enormous strengths and capacities for long drawn heavy duties under all torturous conditions.

To think that these engineering marvels work for reclaiming lands from bays, striking piles into the hard sea beds or drilling tunnels deep below the sea beds (Trans European Tunnel connecting England to France), is mind boggling. The list can go endless but for the scope of this article which is limited.

Equipments to Suit All Needs
Construction equipments may be classified as per needs and further by capacities.

1. Excavating and Earth moving: These gigantic machines are hydraulically operated to safeguard from shock failures. These are the first machines to be employed for preparing the construction sites. Land leveling by digging and cutting terrains are done by excavators of appropriate capacities which run into 1000s of HP. Basic earth movers include dozers, tippers and loaders.

2. Concrete processors: Batch or continuous concrete mixers are computer programmed for consistent precise mix. These are stationed permanently near the site or in the factory depending on convenience. Small batch mixers of less than one quintal capacities are portable. The concrete is transported from far off plants in transit mixers of minimum capacity 6 cubic meters by volume. Concrete is poured to the spot using concrete pumps.

3. Bar bending machines: Small high torque generating bar bending machines are handy in bending and forming construction steel bars. These are available in various specifications.

4. Rollers and compactors: Rollers are employed to compact the ground after dozers have leveled it. Some rollers are also equipped with vibrating compactors eliminating the need for separate compacting. For small areas like indoors vibrating plate compactors, which generate up to 1000kgf maybe used.

These are just about the equipments fundamentally required for construction of homes and offices.

Road Construction
For road construction, depending on whether the road is being asphalted or concretized, the equipments change. Asphalt mixers and Asphalt Pavers take-up the job of road laying to perfection.

Concrete road pavers, although work on similar principle, can’t finish the road-laying as concrete needs setting time. There is a need for faster laying technique. Road surface finishing is by a technique called VDF, which stands for vacuum dewatered flooring. Smoother finishes are given by power trowels and anti skid finishes by brooms, mechanized or manual.
