Work on the building roofs consists of removing existing EPDM membrane, insulation and built-up roofing and roof drains, and installing new mechanically fastened polyisocyanurate board insulation, roof drains, and modified bitumen roofing. The new roof membrane shall be extended up the inner side of the parapet and secured with mechanical fasteners as well as cold-applied adhesive. New flashing shall be installed on parapet walls and on all roof drains and protrusions from the roof surface. Tapered insulation shall be used to provide a minimum roof slope of 1/4 inch per foot to the roof drains. See the attached specifications and drawings.
