Fitness Center & Gym Roofing decision points
Walk onto the roof of a fitness center and two things stand out. First, the deck is wide open underneath, long clear spans with very little structure breaking up the field, because the floor below has to hold rows of machines, free-weight platforms, and group-class studios without columns in the way. Second, the roof is crowded with mechanical equipment, because a building packed with people working out generates an enormous heating, cooling, and ventilation load. Those two facts drive almost everything about how we roof gyms in Columbus.
