DESIGN and CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS CORNELL UNIVERSITY REVIEWED BY: SMD REVISED BY: SMD ROOFING 070000 DATE: 11/5/18 DATE: 11/5/18 Page 1 of 11 070000 ROOFING Cornell’s Design and Construction Standards provide mandatory design constraints and acceptable or required products for all construction at Cornell University. These standards are provided to aid the design professional in the development of contract documents and are not intended to be used verbatim as a contract specification nor replace the work and best judgement of the design professional. Any deviation from the Design and Construction standards shall only be permitted with approval of the University Engineer. PART 1: GENERAL 1.01 REFERENCES A. National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) Roofing Manuals B. Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors National Association (SMACCNA): Architectural Sheet Metal Manual - Latest Edition C. Revere Copper Products Inc. Copper & Common Sense D. ANSI SPRI-Wind Design Standard Practice for Roofing Assembly’s ANSI/SPRI WD1 E. Cornell Design and Construction Standard 072500 - Guide for Evaluating Water Leakage of Building Walls (ASTM E2128) F. FM Global Standards G. Cornell Design and Construction Standard Detail 8.1.4 - Counter Flashing Receiver 1.02 GENERAL GUIDELINES A. This document provides design standards only; it is not intended for use as a specification. Do not copy this information into specifications or in notes on drawings. Request for variance, questions and comments regarding this document shall be directed to Cornell University’s Facilities Engineering, Roof Asset Management (RAM) Program. B. Under no circumstance are more than two (2) layers of roof systems allowed. C. Re-covering roofing is highly discouraged and will only be permitted when it is to apply a temporary layover protection for extraordinary water infiltration conditions. Exceptions will only be considered if the conditions meet New York State Building Code R907.3 ‘Re-covering versus replacement’. DESIGN and CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS CORNELL UNIVERSITY REVIEWED BY: SMD REVISED BY: SMD ROOFING 070000 DATE: 11/5/18 DATE: 11/5/18 Page 2 of 11 D. When re-covering roofing is considered, the design professional must verify the structural and loading capacities before application. E. Protection will be required for all new and existing roofing during project work. The level and type of protection as well as materials must be identified in the project documents by the design professional. F. The roofer and sheet metal workers shall install all roofing flashings, insulation, and sheet metal work required to make a complete waterproof installation. Contractors may provide certain counter flashings and similar materials, but the roofer will be responsible for their proper installation. 1.03 FIXED EQUIPMENT INVENTORY A. Fixed Equipment Inventory is required on all roofing projects, regardless of size and scope of work. B. Cornell University RAM (Roof Asset Management) will provide Designers and Contractors panel diagrams for each existing building. C. Contractors will be required to complete a Roof System Inventory Data Loader, identifying individual roofing panels with its unique identifier and the work done. This has been described in the General Requirements: Section 017822 of Cornell’s Contracts. General Requirements are not part of a roof project contract and the Owner will supply this to the Contractor directly. D. Designers will be required to reference unique identifiers on project documents, identifying any panel impacted by the work. 1.04 LIFE CYCLE COST ANALYSIS (LCCA) A. Cornell University has a long tradition of designing and constructing high quality buildings. Continuing this tradition, Facilities Engineering seeks to ensure that all buildings meet student, faculty and staff needs as efficiently and cost effectively as possible. Cost effectiveness of a design is therefore a key component and Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) is a design process for evaluating and controlling the initial and future cost of building ownership. Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) is defined by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Handbook 135 as the total discounted dollar cost of owning, operating, maintaining, and disposing of a building or building system over a period of time. NIST Handbook 135 is available at www.bfrl.nist.gov/oae/publications/handbooks/135.html B. LCCA is based on the premise that multiple building design options can meet programmatic needs and achieve acceptable performance, and that these options have differing initial costs, operating costs, maintenance costs, as well as different life cycle costs. By comparing the life cycle costs, LCCA can show the trade-offs between low initial first cost and long-term cost savings. Thus, the most cost-effective system for a given use can be identified, and the length of DESIGN and CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS CORNELL UNIVERSITY REVIEWED BY: SMD REVISED BY: SMD ROOFING 070000 DATE: 11/5/18 DATE: 11/5/18 Page 5 of 11 E.

Ensure that drains are at low points of roofed area and drains have been flow tested prior to installation of new roof. All drain baskets must be steel or cast iron. Use of plastic is prohibited. D. Install crickets or saddles to divert water flow around curbs to avoid interference with designed drainage system. Crickets or saddles shall be installed behind curbs with a dimension of 24 inches or greater, measured perpendicular to the slope of the roof. E.
