Rooftop Quality Assurance (RTQA)

Rooftop Quality Assurance (RTQA) is an 8.0-hour course for professionals interested in performing observation services to assure the roof installation is consistent with construction documents and ownership requirements. The program includes thorough overviews of the major roof system assemblies which the professional observer will encounter when performing rooftop quality assurance services for ownership/design groups. The course includes in-depth descriptions of the observer’s roles and responsibilities for proven success in the field. RTQA is designed to cover all aspects of the rooftop quality assurance process, including differing roof installation conditions, and resolving issues that arise during construction and renovation. The course is ideal for roofing material manufacturers, general contractors, quality assurance observers, architectural and engineering field techs, and field inspectors.

At the conclusion of this session, participants will be able to:
• Discuss potential pitfalls, and strategies to avoid potential pitfalls during the installation process, for each of the major roof system types. Expected outcomes include recognizing regional application installation procedures in differing locations.
• Explain installation and repair methods consistent with project-specific roof systems and assemblies.
• Identify the most appropriate, major roof system components and subsequent roof selection recommended for systems located in varying geographical locations.
• Outline mitigation strategies to common problems and deficiencies in roof systems and roof system installations. Develop an understanding of common problems inherent in each system and to recognize roof installation deficiencies in a timely manner. This understanding then translates into effective discussions with the contractor team to resolve important issues for clients and stakeholders.
