Flat roofing
This article covers: All types of flat roofing
Torch on Felt membrane roofing is now the most popular system used for flat roofing
As the title suggests, the technique involves heating a layer of bitumen that has been applied to the felt using a Propane gas torch, which melts the bitumen allowing it to bond to the substrate or under layers of felt previously applied. Together the layers form a flat roofing system. Traditionally the roll and pour method for felt flat roofing was used. This involved heating Bitumen in a specially designed boiler and transporting it to the roof in buckets.

The roll and pour method and still the Rolls Royce of installation & requires great skill -Note thumbs facing forward to avoid rolling hands into the hot bitumen @ 410 deg F
It would then be poured out andthefelt rolled over the molten bitumen. This type of application is veryspecialisedand dangerous and a major influence for the introduction of Torch on Felt. This application is far easier to use and subsequently has allowed installation to be carried out by inexperienced people. The correct installation of flat roofing is a skilled art and should only be carried out by suitably skilled contractors, so many of the problems associated with flat roofing are due to incorrect installation. Installed correctly with modern high tensile felt membranes, there is no reason why a flat roofing felt system should not last just as long as a tiled roof.
Whilst the advantages of having a Torch on Felt flat roofing system installed are obvious, there is a lot of choice on the market that can cause confusion. Some of these options availableinclude torch-on, self adhesive, pour and roll and glassfibremembranes. Any roofing company will be able to give you professional roofing advice on the right type of flat roofing membrane for your property.
Torch-on membranes can be applied to a wide range of flat roofing scenarios in a relatively straightforward manner.
Felt flat roofing is generally applied in four layers comprising of:

Flat roofing A Comprehensive Installation Guide
BEACHWOOD, Ohio (PRWEB) December 12, 2014
Cleaning dirty, white "cool roofs" has always been a challenge for building owners and facility managers. Traditionally, the process uses a lot of water, introduces chemicals into the local environment from waste water, requires large crews and still results in a roof that is not thoroughly clean. All that changes with the introduction of the innovative RoofTec roof cleaning system, a collaboration between Tremco Roofing and Building Maintenance and Legend Brands, experts in solving roofing problems and providing world-class cleaning technology. Both companies are part of RPM International, Inc.
No other system combines the cleaning power, environmentally friendly features and efficiency of the RoofTec system, said Michael Steele, Tremco Roofings Director of Market Initiatives. Single ply and coated roofs are cleaned more completely with much less water impact, and a two-person crew can finish the project in hours instead of days. This makes the RoofTec system much less disruptive and environmentally harmful than other cleaning processes. And the results are excellent; roofs dont just look better, they perform better.
The RoofTec systems features and their benefits include:
According to Steele, it may even be possible to start restoring a roof the same day it is cleaned. Owners often want to restore a single ply or coated roof because it still has years of useful life ahead, but the roof must be clean for the restoration system to adhere properly. Because the RoofTec system requires so little water and immediately recaptures most of what is used, very little remains on the cleaned roof. With the right weather conditions, the water evaporates quickly, allowing the restoration job to begin that very day and leading to a faster project completion.
Additional benefits to keeping white roofs clean include maximizing energy savings by restoring the roofs reflectivity and SRI ratings, extending the roofs life cycles by returning them to peak performance, making general maintenance easier and helping support roofing system warranties.
The RoofTec system is a leading-edge solution that will dramatically change how quickly and easily roofs can be cleaned, with minimal environmental impact, said Steele. We think it is the future of rooftop cleaning.

"I think we checked off a lot of boxes in terms of what we wanted to accomplish," president of baseball operations Michael Hill said. "We felt like for us to take that next step, we needed to improve. And we wanted to add a starter. We wanted to add a bat, an upgraded bat, which we haven't done yet. But we were able to improve our lineup with the addition of Dee Gordon and inject some speed."
Gordon, the All-Star second baseman, is heading to the Marlins as part of a seven-player deal with the Dodgers.
The Marlins capped their stay in Southern California by making two more trades on Thursday. Right-hander Mat Latos was acquired from the Reds. A lower-profile move brought in right-hander Andre Rienzo, the only Brazilian-born player ever to reach the Majors.
Michael Hill discusses the Marlins' acquisitions
Marlins president of baseball operations Michael Hill talks about landing Mat Latos, Dan Haren and Dee Gordon at the Winter Meetings
The additions and subtractions have reshaped the roster, and created some questions. Here's five things to watch for moving forward.
Power bat A strong push was made for Rockies first baseman Justin Morneau, but the asking price was too high. Even though talks fizzled in San Diego, there is a chance they could rekindle before the end of the month. Free agent Michael Morse is a definite possibility, and so is Pittsburgh's Pedro Alvarez. It's highly doubtful the D-backs will trade Mark Trumbo.
Overstocked rotation An area of need filled up quickly in 24 hours in San Diego. Two separate deals landed Latos and Dan Haren. Now, there is the question of whether Haren will join the club or retire to be with his family on the West Coast. If Haren reports, Miami will have Latos, Haren, Henderson Alvarez, Nathan Eovaldi, Jarred Cosart, Tom Koehler and Brad Hand competing for five spots. And, oh by the way, Jose Fernandez, should be recovered from his Tommy John surgery to join the group around the All-Star break. The logjam will make it extremely difficult for prospect Justin Nicolino, a standout at Double-A Jacksonville, to open the season with the club. Having too many isn't necessarily a bad thing. A year ago, the Marlins used 13 different starters.
Trade chips Haren's decision may impact Eovaldi's future. The team may be less willing to trade a power arm without the assurance of a proven veteran to fill the void. Hand is in an interesting spot because he is out of options, so he has to make the team. Hand can be used out of the bullpen, but he is more comfortable starting. He's also the lone lefty starting candidate now that Andrew Heaney's been traded. If a power-hitting first baseman is added, first baseman Garrett Jones will be seriously shopped.

STORY: Tribeca Film Festival Announces Second Half of Lineup
"Music is a prominent thread throughout the festival this year, and theUntitled James Brown DocumentaryandBjork: Biophilia Liveare great complements to our already exciting slate," director of programming Genna Terranova said. "Nas and his work have been beloved by New Yorkers for years and we are thrilled to be celebrating his music with everyone on opening night."
Information on the late additions in the special section can be found below:
Untitled James Brown Documentary, directed and written by Gibney. (USA) -- Work in Progress, Documentary. James Brown changed the face of American music. Soul Brother Number One, as he was known, pioneered the journey from rhythm and blues to funk. More than that, this American legend -- who willed himself to life after he was stillborn -- was a classic embodiment of the American dream. The son of a "turpentine man" from rural South Carolina, Brown became one the greatest live performers ever known, the "hardest working man in show business," and a self-made millionaire. As he often said, it was "show AND business." Once successful, one of his first orders of business was to launch the soundtrack for a new civil rights movement: "Say It Loud: I'm Black and I'm Proud." With unique cooperation of the Brown estate, this is a definitive documentary biography of the James Brown story and legend, 1933-1974.The screening will be followed by a special conversation withGibney on April 27.

The infinitely creative journey presents a culmination of work that represents one of the most original musical endeavors of a generation.The film will screen at the festival on April 26.

Tribeca: Docs on James Brown and Bjork Added to Lineup
CANNES The Broad City crew, including producer Amy Poehler and creators Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer, hit the Croisette for a MIPTV talk about their journey from a social media hit to Comedy Central and what appeals to the younger demographic now.
"I think there's a universality about young people's ability to tell when something isn't authentic," said Poehler, who brought the show to Comedy Central after filming a guest spot when it was a popular web series with a strong Facebook following. "In countries all over the world people are finding and needing something that feels true and real to them, and also being very suspicious when it's not."
"They're able to sniff it out in a way if people are thrown together and cast in something that's created by someone else with no real origin story. Young people are very savvy now," she said.

Comedy can be lost in translation, but as clips gain traction on social media and are shared worldwide, people will gravitate toward the same content, the panelists said. Consumers are at a transition point where "second screen" what executives are still calling web and mobile in a world where people are increasingly consuming entertainment on their tablets and phones will become "first screen" and broadcast television will be considered the secondary viewing apparatus, Viacom senior vp international program sales Caroline Beaton suggested.
"At some point things are going to merge and we are going to have global comedy taste. We're on the cusp of that now," Beaton said, citing The Daily Show With Jon Stewart's universal popularity and what she termed proprietary research from parent company Viacom.
Development will increasingly come from creatives who first experiment on the Internet, said Comedy Central president of content development and original programming Kent Alterman, calling the web "an incredible incubator."
"Technology has gotten so cheap that anyone can have a camera and editing equipment in their hands," he said. "Ultimately the cream always rises to the top and gives people access and exposure."
However creators have to have a strong point of view not just popularity. "A lot of time people confuse how many hits something gets with how well it would do in that translation to television, and that's somewhat irrelevant," he warned. "Ultimately what matters is the vision of the creators and their ability to expand it so there are full stories being told and if it will resonate as a show. That's independent of how many views it gets."
