Aerodynamic Mitigation of Wind Uplift on Low-Rise Building Roof Using Large-Scale Testing
During strong wind events such as hurricanes and thunderstorms, building roofs are subjected to high wind uplift forces (suctions), which often lead to severe roofing component damage and possibly, water intrusion. It is therefore crucial to accurately estimate peak suctions (negative pressures) on...
