Madison, WI – Metal roofing expert Rob Haddock will present Metal Roofing Systems at the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s School of Engineering on Dec. 1-2, 2022. This year the university is offering an early bird discount of $150.

For anyone who designs, installs, commissions, maintains or repairs metal roofing systems, this course will provide the tools and techniques to do the job correctly and avoid problems. Upon completing this course, participants will be able to identify the best solutions to their metal roofing issues, whether working on new construction, performing maintenance or re-roofing.

This 2-day course, taught by Haddock, director of consulting firm, Metal Roof Advisory Group and CEO and founder of S-5!, includes technical and practical “soup-to-nuts” information presented in a common-sense fashion that makes the art and science of metal roofing clear, concise and understandable. For a full course description, visit the University of Wisconsin’s engineering program summary here.

Who Should Attend

Contractors, architects, specifiers, roof consultants, engineers, building owners, manufacturers, building envelope commissioning authorities and maintenance staff will benefit from this course—basically anyone involved in metal roofing design, construction, maintenance, repair and re-roofing. It also would serve as an ideal “crash course” for sales personnel in-industry. 

About the Instructor

Haddock is a well-known expert in the field and has worked in various aspects of metal roofing for five decades―beginning as a laborer, then contractor, forensic consultant, technical author, educator, innovator, and CEO and founder of S-5!, one of the world's leading authorities on metal roof attachment solutions.

Haddock's innovations have resulted in 60+ patents, and his hundreds of writings and lectures have been translated into at least 10 languages. He has won numerous industry awards from industry associations. For 35+ years, Haddock has been a featured speaker at industry tradeshows, including METALCON and the International Roofing Expo (IRE). His practical experience, colorful background and world travel add flavor to his technical expertise resulting in a “must-attend” course that is as poignant as it is entertaining for every educational or experience level in metal roofing trades and practices.

“Rob leads you down the path to understanding with such humor and simple clarity, you not only go away understanding, but remembering,” says former course participant, Darrell T. Blair.

Metal Roofing Systems takes place at the Fluono Center, located on the UW-Madison campus, with an online option also available. Register here and receive the early bird discount by entering code S-5DIS in the promo code box during step three of the registration process.
