Abstract
A roofing mock-up kit includes a container having at least two sides, at least one side is clear so as to visually display contents within the container, and at least three modular interchangeable roofing components, the at least three modular interchangeable roofing components configured to be assembled by a user, the modular interchangeable roofing components positionable in an assembled state within the container to form a scale replica of a roofing system, the modular interchangeable roofing components including at least one distinct interchangeable base layer, at least one distinct interchangeable insulation layer, and at least one distinct membrane layer.
Claims20
A method of assembling a scale replica of a roofing system using a roofing mock-up kit, the method comprising:
- (a) selecting a first modular interchangeable roofing component from a plurality of distinct interchangeable insulation layers;
- (b) positioning the first modular interchangeable roofing component within a container;
- (c) selecting a second modular interchangeable roofing component from a plurality of distinct interchangeable cover board layers;
- (d) positioning the second modular interchangeable roofing component on the first modular interchangeable roofing component within the container;
- (e) selecting a third modular interchangeable roofing component from a plurality of distinct interchangeable membrane layers;
- (f) positioning the third modular interchangeable roofing component on the second modular interchangeable roofing component within the container to form a first scale replica of a first roofing system within the container;
- (g) disassembling the first scale replica of the first roofing system;
- and
- (h) repeating steps (a) through (f) to form a second scale replica of a second roofing system within the container, wherein the second scale replica of the second roofing system is different from the first scale replica of the first roofing system.
A roofing mock-up kit for assembling a scale replica of a roofing system, the kit comprising:
- (a) a container having at least two sides, wherein at least one side is clear to visually display contents within the container;
- (b) a plurality of modular interchangeable roofing components, including:
- (i) at least one distinct interchangeable insulation layer;
- (ii) at least one distinct interchangeable cover board layer;
- and
- (iii) at least one distinct interchangeable membrane layer;
- wherein the modular interchangeable roofing components are configured to be assembled within the container to form a scale replica of a roofing system, and
- wherein the modular interchangeable roofing components are further configured to be disassembled and reassembled to form a different scale replica of a roofing system.
