Wellā¦ You wanna bet 20 schillings? itās funny you bring that up. I kinda did. Back in 1992, I worked at the seaport in Zeebrugge for a month and another month in Brussels. I had a wonderful time working with the Army there. My French was pretty good at the time, but Flemish was pretty easy to pick up after the first month because of the Germanic language roots. One funny thing was that most of the soldiers from the north refused to refused to speak French and the soldiers from the south refused to speak Flemish. When they would start to argue, they would always resort to English. Everyone we worked with or met was super cool and they were very proud to show off their beautiful country.
I still got some money.
Still cooler than euros.

So when we first got to Brussels, we were all out drinking with our hosts at some pub and when we walked out we could hear Front 242 playing at a disco, and I said āHey! Front 242! Lets go in there.ā Everyone lost their freaking minds because I was the first American they met that knew the band they all loved.
I thought the country was beautiful. So much green! And the North Sea was windy all the f*cking time.

Ponding on a roof is never a good thingā¦unclog that roof drain brother.

Thatās what you think right, myself included but thatās how they are man. That roof is 5 years old and almost a million bucks. We have an extended warranty as well. They come out once a year and reseal the penetrations and rock it. I have basically 2 drains per section (3 sections) with a dozen scoffers per edge. The roof contractor says you canāt get away from a little ponding on a half acre of flat roof especially 50 years old. Not that thatās an excuseā¦the age. When they redid it last time it went down to slab. Says he could add more rock but that just holds the moisture and does more worse then good.
Iām right with you man and agree ā¦ everything Iāve ever known says that canāt be. But itās warrantied

As long as the scuppers are functioning as the overflows youāll never get the deadload to fail. Its ballasted so I assume EPDM or TPO yeah those are easily 50 yrs, especially ballasted to protected from UV and wind. Unless your saying its a ModBit. But hell no, pitched insulation panel and that baby is dry as a boneā¦all it takes is 1/16" per foot for water to break friction and run. Anywayā¦moot as it warranted and someone else owns it.
If you really GAF, next time they peel it to the slab ask for a laser survey and let em float the lows with Lightweight concā¦if they dont/wont buck for tapered insulā¦ much less in cost and will not pond.

I get hired professionally to evaluate ASTM existing conditions / capital improvement projects on buildings all over the country. I was in Memphis looking at a 4 acre rooftop a week or so ago, Eff me I didnāt get to see the Elvis PB&J shitter, but I did have some mediocre BBQ
For the shed, well Iām gonna say Acrylic roof, ac infinty fan and controls, so you can have a greenhouse - Eff the shed the mower and wife flower crap can sit outside.
