| Overview |
| |
| This
project required removing and replacing the Jackson Coliseum's
old roofing with a new, faceted copper cone roof. During the
entire construction the facility had to be fully functional
for concerts, games, and other activities scheduled in the
coliseum. This was a high liability job and special safety
considerations were put in place to make sure no injuries
were sustained. After completion, this project received the
Association of Building Contractors award in 1997.

| Roofing |
|
|
|
The roof features 163,000 LBS of 20 OZ copper in a faceted
fanfold cone configuration. A ventilated nail deck insulation
was installed under the copper roofing to provide air circulation.
Because of the height and angle of the roofing, special safety
measures were taken.
|
| Waterproofing |
| |
| All
waterproofing work was completed as part of the roofing project.
|
| Special
Considerations |
| |
| Fencing
was installed along the entire perimeter of the roof to provide
fall protection for workers and materials. Also, this project
worked around a four-month delay.
