 Wind Load |
Laserlite® Polycarbonate Roofing is suitable for use in high wind load areas. Roma, Greca and Trimdek profiles meet the requirements of AS 1170.2.2002 SAA Loading code Part 2 – Wind Loads.
The tests have been conducted according to AS4040.2 -1992 conditions (methods of testing sheet roof and wall cladding, method 2: resistance to wind pressures for non-cyclone regions, which references AS1562.1-1992). The table below summarises the test results obtained. The estimates of ultimate loads, which are based on the assumption that ultimate loads are reached when the maximum principal stress reach the ultimate stress of the polycarbonate sheet (60 Mpa), are included in the table. Plots of the maximum principal stress v’s load for each of the profiles tested follow the table.
