About this detail

A roof parapet and gutter assembly is supported by a metal deck with polyisocyanurate rigid insulation, roof coverboard, and a waterproofing membrane. The parapet features a premanufactured metal coping with splice plates, continuous self-adhering underlayment, and exterior sheathing backed by six-inch cold-formed framing with four-and-a-half-inch mineral wool insulation. A sixteen-gauge stainless steel gutter is integrated with edge trim on VHB tape, structural sealant, and continuous starter flashing. Below the roof deck, structural steel framing connects to steel support angles and a knife plate for the glazed aluminum framing system. The assembly includes hot fluid-applied waterproofing, a protection course, a prefabricated drainage course, extruded polystyrene insulation board at a minimum of R-30, root barriers, filter fabric, and aggregate ballast.
