Is your roof safe? The DMD-1000 Roof deflection monitoring system helps you say YES!
Most roof failures are preventable. Over loaded roofs often show significant signs of sagging and distortion for a long period of time prior to a collapse. The DMD-1000 can be calibrated to raise an alarm for any amount of sag (Typically 70% of acceptable deflection).
Older buildings often develop low spots that collect water and introduce unanticipated loading in a phenomenon known as ponding. Modifications to a building such as changed roof elevations or added roof mounted equipment can create drift walls that add far more snow load to a local section of a roof than can be safely supported. Increased insulating R values in an older building can lead to greater snow accumulation during snow storms than previously planned for - adding to the stresses in the roof beams.
With proper advance warning, cost effective solutions to roof deflection and sagging can be made. The DMD - 1000 from Safe Roof Systems monitors your roof 24 x 7 x 365 to notify crews before a small issue becomes a big problem.
