Did you know that inadequate wood nailer detailing is responsible for over 30% of roofing failures in commercial buildings? These seemingly simple wooden components serve as the critical interface between your structural system and roofing assembly.

Wood nailers create the foundation that supports everything from your roofing membrane to mechanical equipment, safety barriers, and architectural features. Without proper detailing, you risk costly structural failures, water infiltration, and equipment damage.

Wood nailers bridge the gap between structural systems and building components, providing a secure connection point for essential elements.

Structural Integration

Integrating wood with diverse structural materials like steel or concrete presents unique compatibility challenges. This demands specialized fastening systems and meticulous detailing to ensure seamless load transfer and maintain overall structural integrity.

Moisture Management

Wood nailers are highly susceptible to moisture-induced damage. Without proper treatment and careful detailing, they can quickly succumb to rot, warping, and fastener failure, compromising the entire roof assembly.

Load Distribution

Nailers are critical for safely transferring substantial loads from roof-mounted equipment and other assemblies to the primary building structure. This necessitates precise engineering, accurate calculations, and expert installation to prevent localized stresses and structural fatigue.

Before Consac Detailing

• Inconsistent attachment patterns

• Inadequate moisture protection

• Limited integration with other systems

• Basic material specifications

After Consac Detailing

• Engineered attachment patterns

• Comprehensive moisture management

• Full building system integration

• Performance-based material selection
