- 2 - <br /> ' 1 <br /> Frank Porter Graham - Building No. 1 Primary Building <br /> This roofing assembly consist of a gypsum light weight concrete deck <br /> with a 5-ply felt and asphalt flood coat and gravel aggregate. <br /> The bur is in relatively good condition, but the edge flashings and <br /> vertical flashings on the roof-top units are in very poor condition. <br /> Pending is very heavy along the southeast corner and the wood nailer <br /> along the perimeter has deteriorated along with the metal cap flash- <br /> ing and base flashing. There appears to be some deterioration of <br /> the gypsum deck in this area of the roof. The extent of damage can <br /> only be determined by tearing off the bur on this portion of roof <br /> and then replacing the damaged gypsum and perimeter wood nailer <br /> and metal. Two additional drains also need to be installed to <br /> alleviate future problems . <br /> The flashingson the remainder of the roof need to be re-done and <br /> considering the age of the building (constructed 1962) and a new <br /> flood coat and gravel installed after proper patching is accomplished. <br /> The budget for this building is $30,000.00. <br /> Frank Porter Graham - Section 2 Administration Building <br /> This roof assembly is gypsum light weight concrete with 5-ply of <br /> asphalt felt and asphalt flood coat with gravel. <br /> The overall condition of this roof is the same as Building No. 1. <br /> Perimeter flashings are in need of attention along with the vertical <br /> flashings on the roof-top equipment. The pitch pan on the southeast <br /> corner is in need of attention. <br /> Considering that the age of this building is the same as Building 1 , <br /> it would be money well invested to restore this roof after proper <br /> repairs. <br /> The budget for this building is $27 ,000.00. <br /> Frank Porter Graham - Section 3 Multipurpose Building <br /> This is the newest building on the campus. It is a asphalt and <br /> gravel roofing assembly. There is a fair amount of blistering that <br /> has begun to occur. These seem to be inter-ply blisters. The <br /> flashings seem to be in fairly good condition except for some minor <br /> repair work that needs to be done. <br /> This roof should give a number more years service if the repairs are <br /> accomplished. At some time down the road a new overlay single-ply <br /> will need to be installed. <br />
