11:45am - PVC Roofing Materials - Performance, Construction, Functionality
Don Harpring, Harpco Roof Sales
PVC is one of the most diverse products in the building industry and one of the most misunderstood. This presentation will help to better understand why PVC is one of the most versatile and modifiable thermoplastics. With all the different formulations, types, reinforcements and construction, knowledge of this product type will assist the specifier in creating better specifications.
Learning Objectives:
The afternoon programming will be as follows:
1:15pm - Hands-on Roofing demonstration of roof construction Methods (held in parking lot).
Don Harpring, Harpco Roof Sales
Hands on Demonstration: Don will construct a 8’ x 8’ module on his trailer with metal decking and 2 inside parapet corners. On half the mock up we will install wood blocking on 1 outside edge, 1 layer of polyisocyanurate foam mechanically attached to the decking, 1 layer of coverboard set in low rise foam adhesive, and a 2 ply modified asphalt membrane both set in adhesive with the cap sheet to have a heat welded lap. We will flash the wall with liquid applied PMMA flashing. We will attach a metal edge and strip it in.
On the other half, we will install a fully adhered PVC roof. We will flash the wall with the PVC membrane and 1 pipe penetration with prefabricated pipe flashing and 1 pipe with a field fabricated pipe flashing. Finally, we will install a PVC clad metal edging and seam the PVC membrane to it.
[This seminar will be worth 1.0 AIA HSW LU]
Guided Tour of Historic Madison, Indiana
Led by: Don Wiest
Don's interest in architecture began 50 years ago when he was part of a group of students who spent the summer between his junior and senior high school years in England studying English literature, history, and architecture with his English teacher and his brother. He got so that he could name the style(s) of gothic cathedrals and tell you when they were built just by looking at them.
By profession, Don is a retired high school English teacher, having taught 31 years at JEB Stuart High School in Falls Church, Virginia.
He spent a year as a carpenter's helper, helping to restore Ripon Lodge, a 1747 house in Prince William County, Virginia, built by Richard Blackburn, whose son, Thomas, was a friend of George Washington. His daughter married Bushrod Washington, who inherited Mount Vernon. He also restored furniture for the Ripon Lodge collection.
He and his wife retired to Madison so that they could own an old house. Theirs is a Federal style house built in 1853. In Madison, real people still live in the old houses; they aren’t just museums. He belongs to Madison Presbyterian Church, whose building is on this tour as the only example of a certain style of architecture in Madison. (He'll tell you what the style is on the tour.)
He has led these architectural tours for the last 4 years, and looks forward to leading this tour. When he is not doing architectural tours, he leads tours at the Schroeder Saddle Tree Factory, the last remaining historic saddle tree factory in the US.
This architectural tour is normally a walking tour, but it has been adapted for our group aboard the trolley. On the Architectural Tour we will see examples of many of the different styles of architecture in Madison. Some of the styles include Colonial, Federal, Greek Revival, Romanesque (in pictures of the old post office), Italianate, Queen Anne, Beau Arts, and Colonial Revival. We will even see an example of a Works Progress Administration WPA project, Crystal Beach swimming pool, the bridge and high water mark of the 37 flood.
The tour covers the area between Broadway and West Streets and includes a diversion down First Street to the Lanier Mansion, then down Elm to Vaughn and back up to First Street, where we see the Shrewsbury- Windle House. We look at examples of many of the different styles of architecture in Madison, helping the participants to distinguish between those styles and to get an idea of when the styles were popular.

The group will also be presented with the most recent claim trends and learn the practices that effectively manage risk.
Learning Objectives:
- After completing this workshop participants will understand that even simple projects require that sub- consultants engaged to design electrical, mechanical and plumbing systems need to be competent and licensed design professionals for the safety of the building occupants and the general public.
- Attendees at this workshop will discover when you contract your services under a master services agreement additional steps need to be taken to make sure those terms and conditions are congruent with the agreements that are made with other parties responsible to the project delivery.
- This workshop will illustrate for attendees that by providing construction phase services (CA), they can verify that the project has been constructed in general conformance with their design intent. In addition by providing CA, if deviations have been made during construction, they have an opportunity to take corrective action to provide for the safe occupancy of the building.
- In this workshop participants will recognize how make sure all parties to the project delivery are using compatible software so they do not encounter incompatible CAD programs, which can result in catastrophic damage to property and endanger public safety.

With all the different formulations, types, reinforcements and construction, knowledge of this product type will assist the specifier in creating better specifications.
Learning Objectives:
- Attendees of this presentation will learn the history of PVC and learn how truly safe it is to the environmental and building occupants.
- Understand how PVC roofing membranes fit within the building code for fire resistance, fit within industry energy programs offering a more sustainable opportunity, and review studies on service life of the material, so the designer is more prepared to discuss PVC options with the building owner.
- To learn the about the major different components, such as the thickness, scrim choice, and formula in the manufacturing of PVC roofing membranes and how together they impact on its longevity and performance.
- Learn about the latest enhancement option for PVC membranes through the types of plasticizers and how different plasticizers offer a wider range of durability and mitigate issues for applicators and building owners.
