New metal roofing matches the campus scheme on many other buildings. It also offers overall longevity, durability and low-maintenance features.<\/p>\n

The field house and press box are covered with 11,000 square feet of Maxima 216, 24-gauge Kynar in Slate Gray and 4,000 square feet of 24-gauge flat stock metal roofing and low-slope roofing trim.<\/p>\n

Roof Report<\/h4>\n

2013-14 is the first year for Charlotte 49ers football. This new 15,000-seat stadium was built for the new team and is designed to be expanded to 40,000 seats. The main building, the Judy W. Rose Football Center-Fieldhouse, located in the south end zone, has been named after the university\u2019s longtime athletic director.<\/p>\n

The stadium includes several other buildings, including the McColl-Richardson Field Press Box, named in honor of Hugh McColl, former Bank of America CEO, and Jerry Richardson, owner of the NFL\u2019s Carolina Panthers.<\/p>\n

About 20,000 square feet of 24-gauge painted Galvalume AG Panel and custom trim was used on the project. The paint system used on the sheet steel is a Durapon 70 PVDF fluorocarbon.<\/p>\n

Roof Report<\/h4>\n

This new-construction project began in April 2013 and was completed in September 2013.<\/p>\n

The roof system is Energy Star-certified and meets the requirements of the Cool Roof Rating Council, Oakland, Calif. The roof is also 100 percent recyclable; all scrap metal from this job was recycled. Although large amounts of rain fell during the entire build, the job-site supervisor was able to meet deadlines and maintain a high level of safety.<\/p>\n

All team members for this project worked closely to provide a durable product for the fire department, which protects the people of Davidson County.<\/p>\n
