1. Contract Title. American Lake B200 Roof Drainage Repair

2. Background.

Building 200 at American Lake is quite new but was designed poorly. The gutter system directs the water towards the building and the gutter itself is against the side of the building. This had the effect of voiding the 10 year materials warrantee and further caused the majority of the gutters to prematurely rust through. At this location, this has caused a leak into the B-pod hallway as well as into B116.

3. Scope.

This work is restricted to 2 sections of roof above both the hallway in C-pod as well as room B116. It will also address a design flaw in the gutter system but again will be restricted to a max of roughly 100 feet of gutter.

4. Specific Tasks.

a) Remove all existing roofing material and insulation down to the cement deck. Dispose of the material properly.

b) Install new insulation with coverboard and ensure proper slope/taper for drainage.

c) Install new torch-down roofing according to manufacturer's instructions – ensuring to include all materials, flashings, sealants, fasteners, and accessories needed to meet installation requirements and ensure proper watertightness.
