The So Cal Chapter of RCI hosted its second technical dinner meeting of the year on July 20, 2017, at JT Schmid’s Restaurant & Brewery in Tustin, CA.
The guest speaker was Marc Di Zinno of WestCoat Specialty Coating Systems, who presented on failures and case studies relating to deck coating systems. Di Zinno provided an engaging and educational discussion that delved into the basic principles behind coating systems, causes of failures, and problems associated with flashings and poor installation. He did an excellent job of imparting his own valuable industry experience and understanding of the nuances behind the design and installation of deck coatings. Chapter Secretary Kyle Eazor helped to round out the hour-long presentation with a showcase of case study examples of deck failures from past multifamily residential investigations.
Attendees enjoyed a social/tabletop exhibit session; dinner with a choice of beef, chicken, or salmon entrée; and earned one hour of continuing education approved by RCI and AIA. The meeting was attended by a total of 47 consultant and industry participants, with Marc Di Zinno of Westcoat, Ron Johnston of Union Roofing Contractors Association, Annette Wren of Excellent Coatings, and Jan Bagnall of Pli-Dek supporting the event with tabletop sponsorship. The chapter would like to thank the volunteers, attendees, and presenters for helping to make the event a rousing success.
