Parr Center at Central Piedmont Community College in Charlotte, North Carolina, is a new 184,000-square-foot facility that houses the Hagemeyer Library, a student union, an art gallery, and a 450-seat theater. Designed by Morris-Berg Architects<\/a>, the signature structure \u2014 the college\u2019s largest building \u2014 anchors the campus and provides dynamic spaces for students to gather and collaborate, including terraces and garden roofs with a great view of the Charlotte skyline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rodgers Builders<\/a> teamed up with a familiar partner, Baker Roofing Company<\/a>, to complete the project, which included a variety of roof systems, including modified bitumen, PVC, vegetative roofs and pavers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe had a total of five different systems out there based off of the deck types,\u201d notes Cody Sterrett, project manager for Baker Roofing Company. \u201cAt surface level, there were three different types. An SBS Soprema modified roof was the majority of it, approximately 530 squares. We had a little bit of PVC roofing going on up there on some stairway towers and a walkway. We had a lot of Hydrotech. There were about 200 squares of Hydrotech, and about 100 of that had pavers installed. We also installed Hydrotech vegetative roof trays, which were tied in with the pavers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Complex Puzzle<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Work began on the main roof in order to get the building dried in as quickly as possible. The main roof deck was covered in lightweight insulating concrete and then topped with the modified system. \u201cWe completed most if not all of the modified before we dropped down and started working on the Hydrotech area,\u201d Sterrett says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two-ply modified system consisted of an SBS base sheet and granulated cap sheet, which were installed using COLPLY adhesive. \u201cThe Soprema<\/a> two-plied modified system is a pretty heavy-duty roof system that provides a lot of protection,\u201d Sterrett says. \u201cIt\u2019s a very good roof system.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tricky details included a large expansion joint in the center of the roof, as well as edge metal, coping, scuppers and gravel stops. \u201cWe had all kinds of edge metal and gravel stop out there,\u201d notes Sterrett. \u201cMost of the roof, especially on the modified, was leading edge, so there was just a little coping on the edge.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With few parapet walls, the safety plan centered on Raptor carts, which crew members used as anchor points for fall protection. The Soprema PVC system was installed in sections with metal deck that did not receive lightweight concrete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Garden Roof and Terrace<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

After work on the main roof was completed, crews began working on the garden roof area. The main terrace also features a large triangular skylight, which was manufactured by J.P. Ross & Co. Crews from Baker Roofing Company installed it, flashed into place, and covered it with plywood for the duration of the roofing work. \u201cIt was an expensive skylight, so we had to make sure it was protected at all times,\u201d Sterrett says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The concrete deck was prepped and then topped with Hydrotech<\/a>\u2019s hot liquid-applied system. \u201cBricks of asphaltic material are heated in a kettle,\u201d Sterrett says. \u201cYou liquify it and spread it out in a liquid state, and it re-solidifies to create a monolithic waterproofing barrier.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crews applied the first layer of the liquid-applied asphalt, set a flex plastic sheet, and came back with a second layer of asphalt. \u201cThere is a protective mat that goes over the top of that,\u201d says Sterrett. \u201cAfter the protective mat, we put in two layers of 3-inch blue board insulation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the terrace sections, Hanover<\/a> pavers were set on adjustable pedestals. \u201cWe had four different colors, primarily white, along with a light gray, dark gray and red. The pavers were set in a randomized pattern,\u201d Sterrett explains. \u201cThe guys in the field did a great job making sure the pattern was random. There was a little bit of rework; we would come in and look at it as a wholistic picture, going up to the top roof and looking down at it. Sometimes we would highlight some areas if there were too many reds or grays.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sections slated for the green roof were covered with filter fabric before the interlocking vegetative trays were set in place. \u201cIt\u2019s a modular tray system,\u201d notes Sterrett. \u201cThe trays were shipped in racks and we just followed the plan and dropped them in. I believe there were six different species of plants.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Project Challenges<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Roofing work began in May of 2020, during peak of the pandemic. \u201cWe never stopped working \u2014 construction was always considered an essential trade \u2014 but just had to engineer in some safety protocols to make sure our guys were staying safe, keeping other trades safe, and keeping the public safe,\u201d Sterrett notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coordination at the site was smooth, and access was not an issue. \u201cIt was all pretty straightforward,\u201d Sterrett says. \u201cWe craned everything up. That\u2019s one of the benefits of doing new construction \u2014 you don\u2019t have to work around existing traffic flow or anything like that. When they are ready for the roof to go in, everyone makes way for us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baker Roofing Company wrapped up work on the project in early 2022. \u201cIt was a big one, and that\u2019s just the flow of roofing,\u201d Sterrett says. \u201cWe are one of the first ones up there when the structure is completed to get everything dried in, and we\u2019re typically one of the last ones there finalizing details, tying in mechanical equipment and things of that nature.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Complicated projects like this one are right in the company\u2019s wheelhouse, according to Sterrett. \u201cWe have Hydrotech on this project, we have single-ply PVC, we have a modified bitumen roof, as well as paver work and vegetative roofing. It shows we\u2019re capable of doing it all at a very high level.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA lot of people get scared of multi-system roofs,\u201d Sterrett concludes. \u201cIt\u2019s a testament to our company and our guys that we were able to put this together, tie it all in, and have it look as good as it does.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
