Content Description

The Design Advantages of Synthetic Roofing Solutions, 2023
CEU: 0.1 | CEU Code: DV-EN-142202-0524

DaVinci Roofscapes Synthetic roofing materials have been available in the market for more than a decade, providing a cost-effective, viable alternative to traditional slate and shake roofing systems. This course provides an overview of the features and benefits of slate and shake synthetic roofing products, including a discussion on the testing methods used to rate specific performance characteristics. 60 minutes.

Learning Objectives

  • List the green features of virgin-engineered polymer synthetic roofing materials that combine to make them a good environmental choice.
  • State the design and architectural benefits of specifying a synthetic roofing solution including how synthetic products can contribute to LEED point certification and the ENERGY STAR program.
  • Compare the advantages and disadvantages of traditional roofing materials including clay tile, concrete tile, metal, and asphalt (in terms of aesthetics, cost, life span, fire rating, durability, weight, and hail resistance) versus synthetic products.
  • Discuss the durability and long life cycle of synthetic roofing materials including the various testing methods (including fire, impact, wind uplift, accelerated weathering, freeze/thaw, and water absorption) and approvals (ICC-ES and Miami-Dade) related to roofing materials.

Faculty BIO
