Weather: Sunny with temperatures in the mid 70's with a slight breeze.  Rain is predicted for the afternoon.

- Action Roofing is finishing the final row of EPDM over the cafeteria/main hallway.

- New vapor barrier, two layers of ISO, densdeck, and EPDM were installed in this location.

- Discussion on the type of perimeter edge flashing to be installed along the edge of the new roof occurred.  Action Roofing is planning on installing a one piece flashing system in lieu of the two piece.  In some locations, the flashing will be 10" wide to accommodate the perimeter edge wood blocking in place.  A fastener along the base of the metal may be necessary to properly secure the metal to the face of the brick wall.

- Action Roofing is planning on starting the roof over the guidance office next.

Weather: Cooler temperatures in the low 70's.  Sunny for most of the day until 1:00pm when rain started.  It continued for approximately 15 minutes with the sun returning.

- Action Roofing did not remove or install any EPDM today due to the forecast.  The roofing crew instead focused on the detail work for the roof penetrations, AHU's, and pipe penetrations. 

- Cogenic requested the operating and maintenance manual for the existing Pool Pak unit.  Specific information requested is the units weight, lifting point locations, and a break down of the entire unit.  The information was scanned and emailed over to Cogenic.

Weather: Sunny, partly cloudy with temperatures in the mid 70's

- Action Roofing started removal of the old EPDm over the guidance office.  Two rows of roofing were removed in this area.  The poured gypsum deck received primer, vapor barrier, two layers of ISO, densdeck, and a layer of .090 EPDM. 

- The location involved one roof drain and the supports to the stairwell leading to the 2nd floor roof.  In addition, two A/C units were cut in during their work.

- Action Roofing was able to complete the two rows before leaving for the day.

August 16, 2013

Weather: Sunny, warm with temperatures in the upper 70's

- Action Roofing completed the final row of EPDm over the guidance office.  New EPDM was placed along the vertical wall which will terminate under the new perimeter edge metal to the cafeteria roof. 

- The vertical brick wall to the kitchen adjacent to the guidance office roof also received EPDM over the entire surface.  The new EPDM will be terminated under the new perimeter edge metal which will provide a dry lock roof with minimal seams eliminating the potential of water infiltration into the building.

- The roof penetrations over the guidance office and cafeteria were worked on later in the afternoon.  Rubber boots were installed around the galvanized posts to the 2nd floor stairwell which were filled to create a water sealed penetration.  This same action was completed on all refrigerant lines that penetrated the kitchen portion of the roof.

Weather: Warm and sunny with temperatures in the low 80's.

- Action Roofing removed the ballast to the roof over the maintenance wing.  Individuals were required to shovel the rock into wheel barrows and dump over the edge of the building into a dump truck.

- The rock was kept on the district grounds for future use.  One load was placed in on the perimeter of the HS parking lot were years of erosion were jeopardizing the parking lots integrity.  The maintenance staff will place the stone in the proper location on August 19th.

- The remaining three loads of rock removed from the roof are currently being stored in the gravel lot adjacent to the softball field.

- The perimeter edge metal was removed, new wood blocking installed, and safety protection along the roofs edge was installed today.
