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.

VERT / GREEN

Inspect visible elements after storms and document missing connectors or deformation.

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.
