Abstract
Simpson Gumpertz & Heger Inc., with the help of NRCA and RCI, surveyed those associations' members concerning the durability and life cycle cost of steep- and low-slope roofing systems. The resulting data is included in this paper. This work is supported by major roofing materials manufacturers invited to support the venture. The paper is believed to provide an unbiased estimate of the mean and minimum durability of properly-designed, installed, and maintained roofing materials, the influence of the climate on durability, and the estimated life cycle cost of each system.
