The survey has been carried out on flat roof of an academic building in Penang, Malaysia on a rainy day. Based on the condition survey, we found that water ponding occurs on some parts of the flat roof. Water ponding on flat roof will cause moisture problem that trigger severe problem on...
If a flat roof is relatively easily deformed, excessive accumulation of water on the roof can give rise to the ponding effect, whereby autoexcitation of the deformation occurs, possibly leading to collapse. This article examines the conditions under which the ordinary limits for deflections of roof...
Our insulation comes in a variety of shapes and can be modified with ease to fit your design and architectural needs. To avoid ponding water on the roofing membrane, ROCKWOOL ‘Cut to Fall’ solutions can be used to make sure that water is guided to the outlets of the roof. ...
Ponding water: These are water deposits that are stagnant or unable to drain. These can suggest any number of issues, such as blocked drainage, roof shrinkage, or incorrect roof pitching. Rust and corrosion: Corrosion suggests excess moisture and the weakening of parts of the roof. ...
aa) Dead-flat roofs: Ensure the total load supported is the design rain load plus the dead load of the roof. An acceptable analysis method for ponding of two-way framing systems is presented in the ASD and LRFD Specifications for Structured Steel Buildings, Commentary, Chapters K2, American ...
