Renovation of an educational facility in S Zanesville, Ohio. Completed plans call for the renovation of a educational facility.

Elson Hall is located on Ohio University's Zanesville campus. The existing thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) roofing membrane sustained damage during a hailstorm in May of 2022. The roof is approximately 65,126 total square feet. This project seeks to restore the existing roof membrane and related appurtenances with a high solids silicone restoration system so that the end-product is free of penetrations, gaps or other sources of water infiltration, any damaged substrate is located and repaired/replaced, and the roof is substantively free of any leaks. The project also includes evaluating the condition of the existing membrane and substrate through the use of infrared thermal imaging (IRT) and core sampling; proper preparation of the existing TPO membrane in accordance with manufacturer's installation requirements; cleaning and repairing or replacing as needed, all roof drains and scuppers; and providing a non-slip maintenance walking path via high-abrasion resistant and high-visibility textured coating. The Program of Requirements ("POR") will be developed as a part of this project by Ohio University's Design and Construction office acting as the Criteria Architect/Engineer ("Criteria A/E"). All aspects of the project and related issues will be implemented and operated consistent with the Contracting Authority and/or Owner's policies and procedure.
