Ipsco Pipe Manufacturing Building Metal Roofing Retrofit --- (Red Deer Alberta, Canada)
Project
Waterproof treatment of 38,000 sq.ft. metal roof system
Procedure
Ceramic Insulation Coatings were applied to all vertical and horizontal seams, fasteners, and roof paenetrations (20 mil thickness). Thermal shock due to expansion and contraction was eliminated
Environment
Climatic conditions: clear skies. 24oC., ambient direct sunlight
Surface Temperatures
32.5 o C Untreated Metal Roof (2" foam insulation underside) 22.5o C Ceramic Coating Treatment
Measurements
149 btuH energy transfer per sq.ft. Untreated Metal Roof 134 btuH energy transfer per sq.ft. Ceramic Coated
Net Result
15 btuH per sq.ft. of energy transfer Total Net Result: 570,000 btuH (entire treated surface)

Gallery 51 Building - West Edmonton Mall-----Plexiglass Skylights (Edmonton Alberta, Canada)
Project
Spray applied coatings, installed directly to Plexiglas panels; eliminated up to 95% of thermal shock. System shows no sign of movement or failure.
Environment
(Climatic conditions: clear skies. 24oC ambient)
Surface Temperatures
42.5oC Uncoated Plexiglass
29.3oC. Coated Plexiglass

Measurements
252 btuH energy transfer per sq.ft. Uncoated Plexiglass 143 btuH energy transfer per sq.ft. Ceramic Coated Plexiglass
Net Result
109 btuH per sq.ft. of energy transfer Total Net Result: 763,000 btuH (7000 sq.ft. surface)

Dover Hotel Building-----Roofing Project (Edmonton Alberta, Canada)
Project
Retrofit to existing asphalt and gravel roofing system
Procedure
Pressure washed to remove gravel, repaired failed sections with conventional materials, coated with spray elastomer membrane (50 mils thickness), top coated with spray-applied Ceramic Insulation Coatings.

Environment
(Climatic conditions: partially cloudy, 20oC., ambient.)

Surface Temperature
54oC. Existing Roof System (no insulation) 41oC.
Treated Roof System (insulated)
Measurements
276 btuH energy transfer per sq.ft. Existing Roof System (no insulation) 167 btuH energy transfer per sq.ft.
Treated Roof System (insulated)
Net Result
109 btuH per sq.ft. of energy transfer
Total Net Result: 436,000 btuH.
