New CPD Presentation

Flat Roofs - A Guide to Liquid Applied Roofing Systems

To broaden your knowledge of the issues involved in specifying flat roofing, and the pros and cons of the various waterproofing systems available, we have produced a new CPD presentation.

‘Flat Roofs - A Guide to Liquid Applied Roofing Systems’ is aimed at architectural practices and other professional specifiers. We are in the process of planning a series of roadshows up and down the country. If you would like us to give this CPD presentation to your team then click here to complete the form.

The presentation reviews the following: 

Flat Roof Options

Characteristics of flat roofs; design, construction and maintenance issues; the options available to specifiers - broadly summarising the principal system options and their advantages and disadvantages.

Introduction to cold, liquid-applied systems

Characteristics and advantages of cold liquid-applied seamless membranes; introducing the various glass fibre reinforced systems available and where they should be used.

Specifiers / Designers checklist

What to consider when specifying flat roofs and a checklist to assist in choosing the right system - taking into consideration guarantees, accreditations, standards, codes of practice, maintenance and other issues.

Case Studies

The presentation concludes by looking at a number of case studies where these principles have been applied in the waterproofing of different roofing types such as new build, refurbishment, simple roofs, complex roofs, balconies and walkways.
