Rooftop Construction

A construction company needs a long-term solution to protect a building undergoing renovation as the roof of the building is torn down and replaced, creating the need for a secure solution.

A large Clearspan tent cannot be secured on the roof, yet the tent must provide cover to the roof structure, creating a major challenge.  The only solution is to custom engineer and secure a tent to the scaffolding 66’ high.

Working with two different engineers, along with Authorities-having-Jurisdiction to obtain needed permits, attending specialty safety classes and working with union and safety managers, ISS formulated a custom solution to allow our structure to span completely over the building’s roof based on custom engineering.

The project used a custom engineered 20mx60mx3.4m Clearspan structure, roughly 13,200 sq/ft, with a mix of white and clear tops and gables.
