Joists installed, roof going on

As we mentioned earlier, the joists are going up in Readlyn, and now, as they work on that part of the building, we'll see the roof going in as well. In each of our buildings, sheets of steel will be placed over the joists, and those sheets of steel will be covered by sheets of insulation. Once the insulation is installed, those two layers will be covered with a thin rubber membrane that will serve as the outer layer of the roof. Many years ago, my dad always questioned the flat roof for ANY building in the Midwest. However, with these buildings, while the roof looks flat, there is a certain amount of pitch in the roof that helps to direct water toward drains that are placed throughout the roof of the building. The attached video shows the sheet steel being installed over the joists.
