The (city of) Peachtree City, Georgia (Fayette County) commissioned roofing assessment studies of both their existing City Hall Building and the Kedron Hall Aquatics Center building. We evaluated the conditions of the existing roofing systems. The two facilities have different roofing systems.

The City Hall building has a white membrane roof over the two-story occupied building with upper and lower-level metal standing seam entrance canopy roofs. A review of a portion of the adjacent building, Peachtree City Library membrane roof area was also evaluated. The Kedron Aquatics Center has metal standing seam roofs over the main building, entrance canopy and pool chemicals out-building. The aerial drone photography included these two facilities along with city hall’s adjacent library building.

The onsite roofing inspections at each facility included surveys of the roof condition using visual inspection (hands-on) along with aerial drone scanning, including thermal. In this report we describe our findings and propose remedies &/or options to consider.

City Hall 151 Willowbend Road, Peachtree City, GA 30269 Site area: 9.2230 acres Membrane Roof area: 12,170 sf Canopy Roof area: 1,092 sf Roofing Warranty: No, Expired

Aerial photograph (Google.com) of the existing building site

The City Hall is a two-story, approximately 22,378 sf building which currently is occupied. The primary roofing system is estimated at 12,170sf and is believed to be a white PVC membrane roofing system over rigid insulation. The upper and lower level entrance canopies approximate 1,050sf of metal standing seam roof area.

The existing roofing systems appear to be in relatively good condition and have lasted beyond their warrantees and life expectancy. The membrane roof was in good condition and shows signs of good maintenance program. The metal roof finish is pealing away from the metal.

Sika Sarnafil, the current roofing manufacturer reported that the roof system was warrantied on November 30, 2006, as an overlay system set above a ¼” thick overlayment board secured through the existing roof system for 15 years. The 1988 original building construction drawings show a Built-Up Roofing System over rigid insulation installed over corrugated metal decking. No destructive testing was performed such as “coring” through the roofing system, to ascertain whether an intermediary roof system had been installed.

Peachtree City Library

Site area: 1.07 acres Membrane Roofing area: 6,790 sf (area of visual review only) Metal Roof areas: not evaluated

The Peachtree City Library is a single-story building abutting the municipal court building, both of which are currently occupied. This facility is adjacent to the City Hall.

The library’s primary roofing system is a white PVC membrane roofing system over rigid insulation. There are accent roofs and exterior entrance canopy roofing and accent pop-ups composed of metal standing seam.

The thermal scanning was performed over the entire roof with focus on the darkened/ stained area of the library roof, near the adjacent tree canopy overhangs. It is apparent that tree shading and debris have contributed to the roof discoloration and thus precipitate the scanning of the roof without invasive action to date.

Please refer to the thermal scan and generated report and its findings as follows:

Thermal Inspection & Analysis Methodology

How Water Intrusion and Wetness is Detected We detect water intrusion and insulation wetness issues with thermal imagers by taking advantage of the physical properties of water. Water soaked or wet materials will typically have a higher density than most dry construction materials and therefore will have a higher thermal capacitance. This means that water-soaked material will dissipate heat more slowly than dry material. Therefore, when we inspect a roof in the early evening after it has been heated by the sun all day, signs of possible water intrusion will appear visible on thermal image because the wet insulation will appear warmer.

The Importance of Material Properties The emissivity properties of the roof surface materials are also important. Surfaces that are matte or rough in texture, such as most flat roof construction materials, emit heat energy very efficiently and the temperature differences on the surface are easily captured by the thermal camera. Reflective materials, such as metals, have low emissivity properties and do not emit heat energy efficiently. Therefore, metal roofs and roofs coated with metal-based coatings cannot be effectively inspected with a thermal camera. Thick materials such as roof ballast stones, pavers, and slate and ceramic tiles tend to dissipate underlying heat throughout the surrounding material and, as a result, tend to mask small to moderate wetness issues that do not provide a large temperature differential. Finally, most clear glass does not transmit thermal energy at all and will often act as a mirror in the thermal energy spectrum.

Our Analysis Approach When we perform our thermal analysis, we consider several factors to determine whether there is a potential issue or not. First, any thermal anomalies are compared against the visual daylight imagery to determine if an exception (an outlying hot or cold spot) was caused by something obvious like a roof vent, mechanical system, or debris/residue on the roof’s surface. We then consider the type of roof material and any reflective coatings that could impact the thermal readings. If a reasonable cause cannot be determined, the thermal anomaly is then logged as a potential issue. Other factors in our analysis include the location of the roof, the surrounding environment, and how the direction of the sun impacts the thermal loading throughout the day, and the time of year.

Understanding the Thermal Imagery – Flat Roofs We perform both a qualitative and quantitative thermal analysis. The qualitative approach leverages the thermal image in the “Iron Colors” pallet, where the cooler temperatures are darker colors and the warmer temperatures are brighter colors. We look for areas that appear warmer than the surrounding roof area and once identified, we try to determine the cause, as discussed above. We then perform a quantitative analysis in which we isolate the temperature interval range that appears to be consistent with wet insulation. The quantitative analysis allows us to reinforce the findings in the qualitative analysis and limit potential false positives that could be caused by coatings and surface emissivity issues.

Overall, within the detailed analysis of each building we try to identify and describe factors that could cause areas of concern to be potential false positives.

Inspection Disclaimer The inspection and report are not a guarantee or warranty that the structures inspected are defect-free, or that concealed defects do not or will not exist. Problems may exist even though signs of such may not be revealed by the inspection. The inspection and report are not a guarantee or warranty that the structures inspected contain defects or issues to the extent shown in the thermal images. Although

Infrared Thermal Imaging is a proven diagnostic tool with the ability to detect issues with a high degree of confidence, it does not guarantee 100% accuracy.

Kedron Recreation Park, Kedron Aquatics Center 202 Fieldhouse Drive, Peachtree City, GA Site area: 20.1 acres Aquatics Center Metal Roof Area: 31,650 sf Pump Building Metal Roof Area: 2,550 sf

The Kedron Aquatic Center is a single-story, approximately 25,130 sf building which currently is occupied. The adjacent Pump Building is a single-story, approximately 1,330 sf building in operation containing pool equipment. The roofing system is metal standing seam roof. The existing 31,650 sf Aquatics Center and 2,550 sf Pump Building roofing systems have lasted beyond manufacturer warrantees and life expectancy and show signs of being worn by the elements. The roofs are weathered, scratched and have begun rusting. There is evidence of water infiltration at various locations suspected of seam failure and roof-to-wall flashing issues. Gutters along tree-lines are full of debris with some dislodged and/or clogged downspouts & rainwater pipes.

The existing inflatable air structure that is installed over the pools was not evaluated.

Recommendations

- Peachtree City City Hall

- Kedron Aquatics Center

87/96

After collecting the data and coordinating with the Peachtree City staff we make the following recommendations for the two facilities:

The current City Hall is not experiencing any water leaks and the staff has maintained the existing roof in mint condition. Recommendation of removing trees that are adjacent to the building we would highly recommend either cutting down the tree or have an active maintenance schedule of pruning the tree to prevent the leaves collecting on the roof. It is according to our experience and beliefs to recommend a new roof system as presented in “option A” for this facility. This will provide the city a longer life span for the building and keep up with the current well-maintained operations of this building. The city would need to schedule staff during the removal of the existing roof and new roof installation, so that the distribution of work would need to be considered.

City Hall Membrane Roof area: 12,170 sf Canopy Roof area: 1,092 sf

City Hall Option A: Replacement Budget $284,896 Membrane Roofing: Remove existing roof down to deck and install new membrane roofing system including insulation, underlayment and cover boards. Replace perimeter prefinished metal coping system.

Metal Standing Seam Roofing: Remove and replace the existing standing seam metal roofing system. Replace any wet or damaged scrim lined batt insulation. Repair and refinish perimeter flashings.

Kedron Facility

The current Kedron Aquatics facility is not experiencing any water leaks, but the life of the current standing seam metal roof is beginning to show its age with its wear and tear. It is to our according to our experience and beliefs to recommend a new roof system presented as “option A” for this facility. Rather than go back to the “hunter green roof”, we would recommend choosing a lighter colored roof. Lighter colored roofs with higher SRI (Solar Reflective Index) values, resulting in less energy expenditures to maintain cooler internal building temperature. We would recommend matching the white colored Ice Rink building’s roof (located on the same campus). We would also recommend the pruning of adjacent trees to prevent leaves and debris damaging the surface and drainage systems of the roofs.

Aquatics Center Metal Roof Area: 31,650 sf Pump Building Metal Roof Area: 2,550 sf Roofing Warranty: No, Expired

Kedron Aquatics Center Option A: Replacement Budget $822,740 Remove existing metal standing seam roofing, gutters and downspouts and replace.

Replace any wet or damaged scrim lined batt insulation. Replace all perimeter flashing systems. Clean and/or replace underground drainage system at rear of building. Standard 20year warranty.
