Life-Cycle Assessment of Personal Residential Roof Decking and Cover under Hurricane Threats

Publication: Advances in Hurricane Engineering: Learning from Our Past

Abstract

This paper describes how modelers of the Florida Public Hurricane Loss Model (FPHLM) account for and implement various roofing characteristics that reflect the historical building practices and code enforcement in Florida. The life cycle of roofing structural elements, particularly the roof cover, are considered by using an algorithm to estimate whether or not a structure has been retrofitted based on the original year built. The paper will discuss the role of building practices and life cycles of roofing components and their use in vulnerability models as well as discuss the influence of roof retrofits on the vulnerabilities of typical personal residential structures.
