Roof
| White coated aluminum standing seam roof covering was installed on all buildings. The roofing material has high reflectivity, which greatly reduces the cooling load of the building. The roofing material is very durable and will out last a shingle roof by 3 times. |  |
| The standing seam roof system creates an excellent water proofing for the building, as well as assisting with the harvesting rainwater for use in flushing the toilets. |  |
Ridge vents are installed to reduce the heat load on the building. The vents allow the space under the roof to "breathe."
