  • Concrete Tiles - Concrete roof tile, used for centuries, is a dependable, durable, and sustainable material that enhances energy efficient design, while exhibiting a distinct architectural character. In recent years, the material has grown in popularity because of its superior strength compared to other traditional roofing materials, like wood or asphalt.
  • Enhancing Roof Deck Performance with PVC Waterproof Membranes - Roof decks offer inexpensive living space geared to relaxation and socializing and, especially in urban environments, often afford views over a glittering cityscape. Yet because these outdoor rooms can quickly become unsightly and even unsafe if they are not built of the proper materials, they can be particularly challenging for architects. Roofing products are not intended for pedestrian traffic. Protective carpet or wood can be placed over the roofing, but are susceptible to damage from the elements. Applied coatings and fiberglass have been used with limited success due to the inherent deficiencies in the materials themselves. With walkable, waterproof decks being so problematic, many architects and building officials have shied away from them.
  • Advanced Roof Inspection - This includes topics such as Principles of Roofing, Characteristics of Roofing, Steep/Conventional Roofing, Soffit and Fascia, Defect Identification, # Low Slope Roofing Systems, Low Slope Roof Flashings, Drainage, Principles of Ventilation, Roof Ventilation, Principles of Insulation, and Defect Recognition.
  • Essentials of Metal Roof Systems - Our course includes the Overview of Steep-slope Roofing. This continuing education covers a roofing contractor's operations; installation issues and challenges; and the assembly of and coverings for steep-slope roof systems.
  • Steep-slope Roofing - Now that mold is a hot topic in the construction industry, this course will cover HVAC systems as a source of mold, new construction and mold, rightsizing, standards and regulations, liability, and litigation.
  • Basic Roofing - This course will review gable roofs, hip roofs, rise and pitch, overhangs, calculating roof area, and roofing terminology.
