A field wind uplift test answers the question, "can my roof withstand the next windstorm?" FM recommneds conducting a field wind uplift test when the quality of an existing roof is in question. The test can determine a roof's resistance to wind induced uplift forces and can help pinpoint specific roof deficiencies.
