Harrah's Casino & Racetrack Chester, PA

With temperatures fluctuating above and below freezing during construction of this three-story, 380,000 square-foot ( 115824 square meters) gaming and harness racing complex, Philadelphia D&M Project Manager Dennis Cook selected 5/8” (15.9 mm) GlasRoc® Type X high performance sheathing from CertainTeed to protect the shell of the new building from the often brutal Pennsylvania winter. High performance GlasRoc® Sheathing provides a long-term barrier to potential penetrations by rain, snow and ice and offers superior freeze/thaw resistance and enhanced surface liquid water resistance that does not inhibit water vapor permeance.
