The complicated roofscape of the building produced valley gutters at the intersection of the many roofs, with no means of getting the height in the gutters to allow for the standard
'step' detail, and the number of outlets that would be required.
T-Pren solved this design problem by providing in-line waterproof expansion joints. This eliminated the need for steps in the gutters, which reduced dramatically the fall from the
top of the gutter to the bottom, and significantly reduced the number of outlets required.
