Roof Uplift Test Equipment

Test the floor tiles installed on balconies check the adhesion of the roof covering proof the good installation of the waterproofing membrane perform a bonded pull test the metal pulling plate is reusable for repeatable performance and assembles in minutes.

Roof uplift test equipment.

To be exact the mr 24 roof system is prepared to withstand winds of approximately 120 or 200 miles per hour and pressure of 45 to 105 pounds. 1 1 the method of test specified in this standard is intended to determine the uplift resistance of roof assemblies consisting of the roof deck and roof covering materials. Tests for uplift resistance of roof assemblies. The two pieces of plywood are fastened together and attached to the tripod with mechanical fasteners.

Video clip from the test rig in the clip below aluminium standing seam roofing is tested under simulated wind suction. We offer dynamic wind loading and wind uplift tests for walls including external wall insulation ewi systems façades roofing membrane and insulation rainscreens pitched and flat roofing solar panels and veture kits. The plywood is then adhered to the smooth roof surface with steep asphalt cold adhesive or a material which is compatible with the roof system. The butler mr 24 roof system wind uplift testin g ensures that our metal roof is durable and able to withstand pressure from high winds.

These tests are necessary to understand how a metal roof system can withstand both external and internal pressures which is important when trying to meet design and performance requirements in projects. The uplift fastener tester is specially designed for the following domains. The bonded uplift test utilizes two two foot by two foot pieces of plywood connected to a tripod. For mechanically attached single ply roofing systems the test involves building a roof assembly on a test frame that measures 12 feet by 24 feet.

Adhesion pulltester with uplift fixture and 24 x24 plate includes uplift kit and pulling plate reusable metal pulling plate. Mechanically fastened low medium and high profile tiles are tested for uplift resistance 120 tests completed thus far mechanical uplift testing. The test frame has the appropriate roof deck attached to supports. The specific test that pertains to wind uplift utilizes a test apparatus designed by fm approvals.

To test for uplift resistance of roof tile attachments mechanical uplift steel test frame construction sequence.
