Ferrocement + GCCM Cap Roof Shell (Hybrid Monolithic Roof System)
Zach's own synthesis — a ferrocement structural shell capped with a GCCM waterproof membrane, sequenced so each material plays to its strength.
Status
Zach's original synthesis, combining two known techniques (ferrocement + GCCM) in a sequence not found in manufacturer docs or field examples during research. Each individual technique is well-documented; the combined-system behavior is engineering reasoning, NOT manufacturer-tested or field-verified. Build a 2x2ft test panel before committing to a full roof shell. See also: the Ferrocement Panel wall system (Wall & Roof Systems) — same lath-and-mortar technique, applied there as a standalone wall rather than a roof shell capped with GCCM.
