New flat roof alternatives- spalling question
New flat roof alternatives- spalling question
(OP)
I am replacing a 3,000 sqft flat roof that currently has a EPDM system- held down with rocks. The new system I must evaluate requires mechanical fasteners directly to the concrete roof. ( Twin T construction)
I have been advised by the roofer to expect alot of spalling, AND assured that this does not effect structural integrity. This seems counter intuitive to me. Am I being paranoid or will the spall ultimately cause a problem.
any advice appreciated

If the drilling happens too close to the edge of the concrete, spalling can happen too.
