Description
Overview
This session was originally presented at the 2024 IIBEC International Convention & Trade Show in Phoenix, Arizona. This course includes the following components:
- recording of the live session
- a summative assessment consisting of 10 multiple-choice questions
- two surveys required to claim continuing education credit
Description
Establishing processes to coordinate and communicate among the trades ensures success for everyone by reducing errors, time delays, and costs. When a lightning protection system already exists, coordination becomes even more vital to a project.
By providing case studies from critical facilities to hotels, we will outline the necessary steps for the proper removal and installation process of a lightning protection system to reduce issues such as roofing damage and improper function of a system. An update on standards and codes that impact both industries will be included as we discuss assessment and specification. Beyond the installation process, we will provide suggested communication methods and timing for coordination—from the initial project assessment through maintenance—to ensure the integrity of the roof and the rooftop systems.
