Abstract
A field wind uplift test answers the question: How good is my roof? That question should be asked by anyone with a facility in a hurricane-prone area. FME&R studies show that the major damage from a hurricane occurs when roofs are damaged, which then allows wind-driven rain, debris and dust to enter a building, damaging its interior contents.
