| Overview |
| |
|
The Golden Moon Hotel and Casino's 28 stories rise to
315 feet where the 80 foot golden geodesic sphere houses
an observation deck, lounge, dance floor, and signature
restaurant. A full 90,000 square feet of the 843,000 square
feet of interior space is dedicated to gaming and another
11,600 square feet are dedicated to the many meeting facilities.
Ammenities also include indoor and outdoor pools, fitness
facilities, and an immense aquascape with five water features
in the front of the hotel.
This fast-track project required waterproof walls and
a waterproof observation deck in addition to functional
and aesthetic requirements for the over 400,000 square feet
of roofing. Special strategies needed to be put in place
in order to meet the hurried deadline.

| Roofing |
|
|
|
The Golden Moon Hotel and Casino required three roofing
systems in its over 400,000 square feet of roofing and incorporates
the logo of the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians on the
Casino level. This project includes over 269,000 feet of
Johns Manville bitumen roofing, 98,000 square feet of white
fibertype PVC roofing, and 45,000 square feet of Carlisle
EPDM rubber roofing.
This project required 30 levels of temporary dry-in
to be installed to allow the quickest possible completion
of the ornate interior finishes before the finished roofing
was installed.

addition to the over 400,000 square feet of roofing, the project
included waterproofing 27,000 square feet of walls and waterproofing
the 3,464 square foot observation deck housed in the geodesic
