Upcoming Courses
SPRAY FOAM MONOLITHIC ROOF SYSTEM
This course reviews Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF) roofing systems for high-performance building envelopes. Explore installation methods, thermal benefits, protective coatings, and specification best practices to optimize energy efficiency, durability, and code compliance.
WATERPROOFING SOLUTIONS
This presentation reviews critical waterproofing strategies for parking decks and below-grade applications. Learn to tackle water intrusion, prevent structural corrosion, and select high-performance systems that maximize safety and service life.
ROOF COATINGS - A SUSTAINABLE SOLUTION
This course introduces commercial roof coatings, exploring key chemistries, compatible substrates, and critical application factors. Gain a foundational understanding of how engineered coating systems enhance performance, extend assembly lifespans, and deliver cost-effective maintenance and restoration.
HIGH-PERFORMANCE NON-SKID COATINGS
This course reviews high-performance coating strategies engineered for pedestrian and vehicular traffic. Explore heavy-traffic chemistries, resin technologies, and proper surface preparation and moisture testing methods. By integrating dynamic coefficient of friction (DCOF) and ADA life-safety standards, you will gain the practical skills needed to specify resilient systems that withstand vehicular abrasion and enhance safety.
