Duradek :: Waterproof Vinyl Sheet
Systems
Duradek has been
in the deck and balcony waterproofing industry
since 1974. Duradek pioneered the use of
PVC membranes as an outdoor walking surface and
were the first to have an approved single ply
'walk on' roof membrane. Duradek membranes are
the primary roofing approved materials on tens
of thousands of roof decks throughout North
America. From large condominium and townhouse
complexes to single family homes, Duradek is the
choice of Architects, Builders, Property
Managers and Homeowners who appreciate Duradek's
attention to
detail.
Duradek Ultra -
Duradek is the
original sheet vinyl designed to waterproof flat
decks and roofs. Duradek is textured to provide
slip-resistant walking surfaces and comes in a
wide variety of colors and patterns to provide a
contemporary, clean look previously unavailable
in the outdoor waterproof flooring industry.
Installed in one easy step and in almost any
weather condition, Duradek can be used
immediately. Duradek provides the waterproofing
and the walking surface in one simple solution.
Duradek Ultra Tiledek
- Duradek Ultra Tiledek
is identical to Duradek Ultra other than a
fabric embedded top layer that creates a surface
to which the tile bonding thinset will securely
adhere. Installed with the same waterproofing
details and techniques as Duradek, Tiledek
is the waterproofing roofing membrane under a
tile, slate or porcelain finished surface. In
addition to protecting the surface below,
Tiledek also acts as a crack isolation barrier
to bridge small cracks in the substrate
preventing those cracks from transferring
through to the
tile.
Duradek Ultra
Plazadek -
Duradek Ultra Plazadek is designed
specifically for the purpose of waterproofing
flat deck or roofs which are intended to have
pavers, stamped concrete or a wood/synthetic
wood duckboard system placed overtop for
pedestrian traffic. Plazadek is identical
in construction to Duradek Ultra, installed with
the same waterproofing techniques, by the same
network of trained applicators and performs the
same function of protecting the living space
below.
Durarail
- Durarail is a powder
coated aluminum railing and fencing system
manufactured by Duradek.
Aluminum is known for
its strength and non-corrosive qualities making
it the perfect building material for deck
railings. Durarail is "Powder Coated Tough"
using "Super Durable TGIC" powder, available in
8 standard and over 180
custom colors. The Durarail system
provides a maintenance free, durable and
attractive finish that meets AAMA 2604
specifications and as an approved applicator for
Newlar paint, Durarail also meets the AAMA 2605
specifications. Durarail is available in many
styles, from pickets to view-through
glass, and is easily customized to
satisfy any
requirement.
Durarail railing systems
have been tested to the rigorous building codes
in both the US and Canada.
Additional engineering is available to satisfy
even the toughest of code jurisdictions.
A Durarail railing or
fencing system is a safe, strong, and attractive
addition to any outdoor living
space. | |
Choose the Right Footing for the
Job
Safety
and liability are issues that face all of us in
the construction industry every day. Improper
installation of footings, especially pier
applications, as well as recent deck failures have
prompted changes in codes across North America.
Compliance with codes is becoming increasingly
important. Not only are building codes becoming
more stringent and clearer about what is approved,
every day they become more rigorously enforced.
Check the codes in your area to ensure you use the
right sized footing for the job - and reduce your
liability.
Bigfoot Systems® Footing
Forms are the Original Code Evaluated
engineered footing form for construction tubes
that meets or exceeds building codes throughout
North America. Bigfoot Systems® reduce labor costs
by as much as 90%. Bigfoot can be installed in a
single day, which saves time, money and
aggravation. Bigfoot Systems offers sizes that
will fit all 6" to 18" construction tubes.

For
nearly nine decades, BCI Burke has been designing,
engineering and building only the highest quality
playground, recreation and park equipment.
One of BCI Burke's newest
products is Burke Turf™, which is
the perfect playground surfacing option for your
park, recreation or school
playground.
 BCI
Burke combines rugged durability with
remarkable softness and beauty, with 100%
Polyethylene fibers and a thatch layer to simulate
natural grass. It's easy on the environment (100%
recyclable) and has the look of a fine blade
fescue or blue grass lawn. But thanks to the
latest turf technology, it's tough enough for
high-use sports and playground areas as well. In
short, it's the perfect green playground surfacing
option!
But its beauty is far
more than skin deep. Below the playground surface
you'll find a soft infill that is completely
anti-microbial, to provide a lasting, healthy play
environment. A shock and drainage pad that
provides shock absorption and impact protection
from falls - the most common source of serious
playground injuries. Burke Turf conforms to the
latest CPSC, ASTM, and ADAAG standards for impact
attenuation and
accessibility.
BCI Burke offers a
9-year limited product warranty on Burke Turf from
the date of purchase. The product shall be free
from defects in material and workmanship,
resulting in premature wear or color loss. For
more information about Burke Turf and the product
warranty please contact your local Burke
representative at 1-800-266-1250 or visit
