Abstract:
Upstanding overhanded profiled aluminium plate has some defects when being used as building roof surface and the worst defect is its insufficient strength against lifting by wind. Based on three cases where profiled aluminium plate roof is locally lifted, including roof of a light rail overhead station, stadium shed roof of an Olympic Center, terminal building roof of an airport, reasons for damage caused by wind load on upstanding overhanded profiled aluminium plate and its components are analyzed and countermeasures against lifting by strong wind are introduced.
