The most widely installed
roofs in the commercial roofing industry, mechanically
attached systems are an ideal choice for buildings that
experience mild to moderate winds due to a lightweight
and easy-to-maintain system. Mechanically attached systems
are held in place by the plates and fasteners that are
secured through the membrane and into the deck.

Fully adhered roof systems offer the highest
degree of stability and uplift protection and are essential
for high elevations or hurricane-prone areas where wind
is a constant concern. Fully adhered systems are ideal
for roofs with unusual or odd-shaped contours, where mechanical
penetration of the membrane is not desirable, yet exceptional
wind performance is needed.

Ballasted roof system area
an extremely economical choice for large, wide-open rooftops,
because of their fast and easy installation. A popular
choice for large retail stores and warehouses, ballasted
systems feature a loose-laid membrane that is covered
and held in place by river stone or pavers. The ballast
helps to shield the membrane from inclement weather and
extend the life of the roof. Also it helps to reduce cooling
costs.
