About This Presentation:
When a roof covering is hanging off the edge of a building, you don’t need a rocket scientist to tell you it has been damaged by wind. But what about a roof that is still in place but has a few holes and funny looking “humps”? Is it wind damaged and, perhaps more importantly, how extensive is the wind damage?
This presentation will review several roofs in Puerto Rico where wind damage was not so obvious and proved more extensive than originally thought.
By the end of this presentation, you will understand:
a. Tell-tell signs of not-so-obvious wind damage.
b. Why overlay roofs are prone to extensive “indirect” wind damage.
c. Tips for the effective use of electronic moisture meters.
d. The value of test cuts and electrical resistance moisture probe readings.
