CURA Adjustable Reroof Framing and Truss Systems are used to form the foundation of a new sloped roof over virtually any existing worn out flat or other odd shaped roof, or new construction and can be designed for use with virtually any roof, fascia or soffit system. Because CURA Framing Systems are custom designed, pre-manufactured and adjustable, much of the work required of designers and contractors is eliminated, keeping design and erection costs down while boosting roof quality. CURA Adjustable Reroof Framing and Truss Systems have many important features that make them superior to any other framing system, and must be considered to help ensure quality, ease of installation and cost effectiveness.

Technical Support.
ReRoof America’s experienced personnel are available for answering questions and providing technical assistance throughout the design, sales and construction process. Simply call 800-280-2872 and see just how helpful we can be. ReRoof America, Inc. provides the design and engineering of the CURA System, provides layout drawings, details of how the system goes together, parts descriptions, attachment requirements, structural calculations, P.E. stamps, and suggested erection procedures prepared for each specific project. Firm quotes are provided typically within 48 hours.

Adjustability.
Flat roofs are not really flat. They have uneven contours, low spots, high spots, slight slopes, elevation changes, etc. The patented adjustability feature of CURA Adjustable Reroof Systems allows you to selectively adjust the top members supporting the new roof system to the proper elevation without field cutting the support columns (webs) to the precise length required. Factory cut and punched CURA Adjustable Systems greatly reduce the labor intensive hassle of field cutting, drilling and welding which correspondingly reduces employee injuries, fire permits, labor burden and material waste. Additionally, the adjustability feature helps ensure a uniform, straight and true new roof slope.

Custom Designed.
Each reroof project is custom designed and manufactured using pre-engineered components to meet the needs of the building under consideration. ReRoof America’s experienced engineering staff will assist you to make certain that the new roof distributes the load uniformly to the underlying structure while creating the new roof plan specified. CURA Framing is designed to meet the loads required by local and national codes or as specified in the project requirements. CURA Framing design will be coordinated with the roof system manufacturer to help ensure compatibility and quality of the complete roof system.

Lightweight.
The CURA Framing System adds approximately 1-2 pounds per square foot to the existing structure. CURA Framing combined with a metal panel will total approximately 3 pounds per square foot, which is often less than existing gravel that may already be on the roof.

High-quality Fasteners.
Only high quality fasteners are used to connect CURA Framing together. This provides superior resistance to hydrogen embrittlement and stress corrosion cracking; two common processes in which conventional fasteners can fail at stress levels far below expected yield strength.

Accommodates Insulation.
The void between the old roof and the new roof can easily be filled with low cost, blanket, vinyl backed or blown in insulation that will lower utility costs and will eventually pay for the new roof.

Versatile.
CURA Framing Systems can easily adapt to virtually any existing roof and existing structural conditions and create virtually any desired new roof configuration. CURA Framing heights can vary from 6 inches to heights of 20 feet or more. New CURA supported roofs may be used to improve the appearance of existing buildings, or to tie new construction to the existing construction to achieve an overall harmony. CURA Framing Systems can also create sloped roofs on new construction.

Attaches over existing roofs.
In most cases, the existing roof membrane does not have to be removed. This allows construction to be done with minimum disruption to activities inside the building and minimizes the potential for leaks during the construction process.

Accommodates rooftop obstacles.
Unneeded the new roof may cover rooftop obstacles, such as skylights that are no longer used. Air conditioning units can be raised above the new roof or can be covered over by the new roof with proper ventilation.

Limited Warranty.
ReRoof America, Inc. manufactures CURA Adjustable Framing Systems in accordance with AISC, AISI, good engineering and good manufacturing practices. RRA warrants that the CURA Framing System will transfer the roof load specified in the contract from the new roof to the existing structure without failure as a direct result of manufacturing or design work done by RRA for a period of up to 20 years.

Special Designs.
ReRoof America, Inc. has extensive experience in handling unusual existing building configurations, unusual new roof configurations, extremely high roof slopes, or any other extraordinary situations. Please consult ReRoof America, Inc. for more information on special designs. We welcome the challenges posed by any reroofing situation.

• Bracing is supplied for all CURA systems on all projects.
• Fasteners to attach the CURA Framing together are supplied by ReRoof America, Inc.
• Fasteners used to attach the CURA System to the existing structure are supplied by others. Attachment load information will be provided by ReRoof America, Inc.
• Fasteners used to attach the panel to the CURA Top Member are supplied by others.
• CURA Systems will be painted with red oxide paint or equivalent unless specified otherwise. G-60 and G-90 galvanized framing is also available.
• Layout drawings will be provided on each project.
• Drawings are typically stamped by a Professional Engineer licensed in ReRoof America, Incorporated’s state of residence. Drawings can be stamped by a professional engineer in the state where the project is located, if required.
• Structural calculations can be provided, if required.
• Framing for equipment, screening, facades, soffits, overhangs, mansards, canopies, roof top units, etc. can be provided by ReRoof America, Inc., if specifically requested.
• ReRoof America, Inc. will arrange for shipping the reroof framing system to the job site.
• ReRoof America, Inc. can be a single source supplier for both the roof system and the framing system. However, we prefer not to be restricted to any one roof system because CURA Framing Systems can be designed for use with any roof, fascia and soffit system.
• The CURA System is fabricated in accordance with established manufacturing and engineering practices.
• References will be provided upon request.

In addition to the parameters that are inherent in the design of steel structures, the following conditions are the basis for typical CURA Framing Systems' design. RRA must be advised if any of these parameters differ from what is stated so that the design can be altered accordingly.

• The existing structure is capable of withstanding the various loads transmitted to it by the new roof, the CURA System, and the old roof. The CURA System may cause concentration of loads on the existing structure. The structural adequacy of the existing structure to withstand these loads is to be checked by others. ReRoof America, Inc. can be contracted to check the adequacy of the existing structure.
• All connections to the existing structures will be designed by others according to local code and established engineering practice. ReRoof America can assist in connection design if requested.
• When supported on the designated purlin spacing, the new roof panel is structurally adequate to support the roof live, wind, and dead loads, plus axial forces resulting from pitch and point of attachment configurations.
• The new roof panel is structurally adequate to support axial forces as required for purlin flange stability when attached to each purlin with fixed clips or through fasteners.
• The roof panels are connected to the CURA Top Member at no more than 24 inches on center.
• The new roof panels will be securely attached to the top members of the CURA Frames in a manner so as to transfer the necessary loads without causing rotation or torsion in the top member.
• Thermal loads are not of sufficient magnitude to be significant. If these are critical, contact ReRoof America, Inc. for assistance.
• The CURA Frames are laterally braced by the new roof system if the roof system is capable of providing diaphragm strength in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the frames.
