How much would a membrane roof or façade cost, say, in comparison with a traditional one?
A. This is a difficult comparison to make, as membrane is not simply a substitute for a conventional roof or façade, it is part of an entire design engineering solution for the whole building. Savings in terms of structural requirements, installation time, ease of erection and reduced maintenance, coupled with competitive membrane costs, means that over the life of the building a membrane solution is normally significantly more economic.
