VERT / GREEN
Inspect visible elements after storms and document missing connectors or deformation.
Wind uplift: roof-to-wall-to-foundation load path
Verify wind forces transfer through roofing, framing, walls and anchors instead of looking only at shingles.
Important: this tool helps decide what to verify; it does not replace calculations, permits or professional design where required.
JAUNE / YELLOW
Reroofing, large overhangs, structural openings or cladding changes can affect wind interfaces.
ROUGE / RED
Roof uplift, missing structural connectors after alteration or high-wind exposure: structural review, not cosmetic repair.
Indicative triage
Useful tools and data
- Local wind/code data
- Framing/connection plan
- Post-event photos
What the professional checks
- Establish wind loads
- Verify each resistance link
- Specify connectors/retrofit

V14
Systems to check before closing the work
V14 connects envelope, air, fire, structure, water and code instead of treating each project in isolation.
V15
Remaining system checks not to miss
V15 covers issues that can block a project, cause a loss or become expensive once concealed.
V16
Advanced diagnostics to cross-check
V16 connects water, soil, climate, safety, materials and seasonal use to existing projects.
V17
Specialized systems to cross-check
V17 completes gas, soil, water, fire, climate and structural interfaces.
V18
Specialized diagnostics to verify
V18 connects systems that become costly or regulated when a primary project triggers them.
V19
Edge systems to integrate into the project
V19 covers interfaces that become important when multiple home systems interact.
Hidden details to verify before repair or enclosure
These diagnostics separate simple maintenance from measurement-first and conditions where structure, fire or services require professional review.
V26
Often-overlooked service interfaces
V26 connects systems that cross utility, plumbing, HVAC, envelope and metering boundaries.
V27
Project risks and overlooked interfaces
V27 connects payment, water, envelope, ventilation and jobsite details that often create costly surprises.
V28
Finish and service details to verify
V28 connects small details that become costly once finishes are closed.
V30
Shared, access and specialized interfaces
V30 connects projects where multiple systems, owners or rules meet.
V32
Post-disaster and legacy systems
V32 connects contamination, storm damage, legacy materials and recommissioning before rebuilding.
V33
Invisible constraints before work
V33 checks electrical, legal, environmental and climate constraints that can block a project before demolition starts.
V34
Use, excavation and construction constraints
V34 connects use permits, soil, excavation, neighbouring structures and public-space logistics before hard-to-reverse work.
V47
V47 interfaces not to miss
These details are small on a drawing but can control water, structure or durability.
