Hail Resistance of Roofing Products
註釋A test was developed for evaluating the hail resistance of roofings, in which synthetic hailstones (ice spheres) of various sizes were shot at roof assemblies at their free-fall terminal v * elocities.Indentations, granule loss and roofing fracture were observed.The principal conclusion is that:All roofing materials have some resistance to hail damage, but as the size of the hail increases, a level of impact energy is reached at which damage occurs.This level lies in the range of 1 1/2 to 2 inch (3.8-5.1 cm) hailstones for most prepared roofings.(Author).
