Aerodynamic mitigation of low-rise building with complex roof geometry

During strong wind events, building roofs are subjected to high wind uplift forces (suctions), which often lead to severe roofing component damage, or even roof total failure, flying debris, and water intrusion, hence, interior damages. Typical roof shapes (e.g., gable and hip) are generally designe...
