Kemperol membranes can be applied for complete edge-to-edge roof installations and are compatible with standard roof assemblies while eliminating the need for pitch pockets. The membranes are ideal for base flashing transitions and ponding water areas. Kemper System roofing membranes are suitable for direct application to plywood, concrete and metal substrates.

Monolithic, seamless membrane that fully adheres to the surface |
• |
Resistant to ponding water and ice |
• |
Ideal for flashing any difficult architectural element or configuration |
• |

Project Profile:
High Museum of Art, Woodruff Art Center - Atlanta, GA
Challenge
Waterproof the 20,000 sq.ft. concrete roof deck of a new museum wing. Museum wing was designed with 1,250 metal-based circular skylights spaced 18 inches apart in order to achieve natural lighting throughout the gallery area.
Solution
Installation of Kemperol membrane with Kemperdur aggregate surfacing adhered directly to the concrete deck substrate, including self-terminating flashings at all skylights. Self-terminating feature of flashings eliminated the use of termination bars and field-welded counterflashing. When construction was complete, the High Museum launched Louvre Atlanta, an unprecedented partnership with the Louvre Museum in Paris.
