The Portuguese Institute for Sea and Atmosphere is a public institution, part of the indirect administration of State.
The Institute follows the responsibility of the Ministry of Sea, under supervision and guardianship of the respective minister. IPMA has responsibilities at national territory level in the areas of the sea and atmosphere, focusing its research efforts on projects that accrue to direct applications for use in operating activities and pursuing continuous improvement in the information made available to its users.
Prudêncio was responsible for the roof rehabilitation (thermal insulation and waterproofing) of its building in Algés, Lisbon, and effectively solved the problems for which IPMA had not found a solution for several years.
BEFORE THE REHABILITATION
FINAL RESULT
The result of Prudêncio’s intervention was functional but carried out with materials that we no longer use today: bituminous and PVC systems.
