Ron Blank & Associates, Inc.

From our humble beginnings that were sketched out on Ron Blank's mother's kitchen table, a vision was conceptualized for connecting architects and building product manufacturers in a way that had not been done before. Since that moment, RBA has strategically evolved into a multi-platformed suite of services for building product manufacturers and design professionals that aim to connect, educate and energize the professional goals of those who engage them.

    This one-hour course provides a framework for understanding the importance of rooftop equipment securement. We’ll review current methods that are no longer code compliant and explore modern innovative solutions that properly secure all rooftop equipment and accessories. We will examine the critical need for application appropriate planning, calculating and installation.


    Describe the updated codes required for rooftop equipment securement to be compliant and provide long-term performance and safety during natural weather events, protecting the building envelope and community.

    Identify proper securement and installation options for various rooftop equipment on all low-slope commercial roof types, including fasteners by deck type, anchors, labor, and their associated cost for proper performance.

    Explore engineering and specification requirements for the securement of rooftop equipment including wind uplift, seismic movement, compression, and watertight integrity.
