Inadequate equipment supports could be damaging to a roof system
If inadequate equipment supports are damaging the roofing membrane due to the weight on the membrane, then two options for correcting the condition should be considered.
These options provide an alternative method of support and may prevent further damage to the roofs membrane.
The first option is to erect a new curb attached to the structural deck. This curb should then be properly flashed and counterflashed. The second option is to install an equipment stand supported by the structure. The equipment stand should then be properly flashed. Raised and flashed curbs are the recommended method for supporting and attaching equipment.
