Solutions

The team meticulously layered the upper roof first. They secured OSB timber sheets, applied IKO bonding agent for adhesion, and then hot-air gunned the VCL membrane for a seamless seal. After installing parapets, KRL used IKO PU adhesive to fix insulation boards in a staggered pattern.

To maintain water-tightness during construction, the team only installed enough insulation daily to be covered with underlay, sealed overnight with night seals. Finally, they primed the insulation and applied IKO self-adhesive underlay before finishing with the IKO torch-on cap sheet for weatherproof protection.

‍
The lower roof required a similar approach, but adapted to its metal deck pecks by priming them before installing the SA-VCL membrane. Once upstands were built, the insulation and underlay installation mirrored the upper roof with meticulous detail and daily sealing.
