Content Description

Metal Roof Design in HVHZs: Best Practices for Architects and Roof Designers, 2024
CEU: 0.1 | CEU Code: EN-EN-170202-1125

The beaches and proximity to the Atlantic Ocean are some of the advantages of living in Florida. However, the extreme wind forces from hurricanes can easily damage even the strongest buildings and cause billions of dollars in property loss. As a result, certain areas of Florida'Miami-Dade and Broward Counties'have been designated High Velocity Hurricane Zones. The building products used in these zones must be laboratory tested to meet extreme wind and pressure performance standards. This course explains why a metal roof system designed to minimize the damage from hurricanes is important.

Learning Objectives

  • Discuss the features and benefits of standing seam roofs.
  • Describe the standards for calculating wind resistance on buildings.
  • Explain the Miami-Dade County and Florida Building Code requirements for wind-resistant roofs.
  • Explore how product approvals, notices of acceptance, and site-specific engineering reports are used to protect roofs.

Faculty BIO

The instructor of this course is a SME. The course has been written by qualified education developers and is conducted in accordance with all applicable regulations.
