As the saying goes, when nature is at its worst, buildings need to be at their best. Roofs at their base level are designed to keep weather out. As weather gets more extreme, roofs are being asked to withstand even more to do just that. During this webinar, you will learn about the new wind requirements in ASCE 2022, best practices for designing for very severe hail, and ways to manage water from large rain events.
