Waterfront Warehouse Rehab Project

Roof Deck Construction VideoBob and Chris Vila meet with David and Jed Walentas from Two Trees Development, the developers of the waterfront warehouse rehab, on the top of a nearby building to get some ideas for the project building's roof deck. In this example, the roof below the deck is a double-ply rubber membrane. Portions of the deck are made with pressure treated timbers and a renewable hardwood decking called ipe, although the majority of the surface area is concrete pavers. New York City building codes will be a major consideration in the construction of the Pepper Factory's roof configuration. Jed Walentas highlights some of the major factors, including the height of the safety railing and the percentage of combustible materials that can be used in rooftop construction.
