BRANZ recently upgraded its facility for wind and rain testing of roofing products like roof tiles, profiled roofing, flashings, rooflights, vents and penetrations.
The upgraded facility can be used as part of the weathertightness assessment testing of roofing products and systems against the requirements of New Zealand Building Code Clause E2 External moisture and the Building Code of Australia. Testing can be to AS 4046.9 or to specific BRANZ Appraisal criteria. The testing provides a detailed and independent opinion on the fitness for purpose and complements the BRANZ Appraisal process.
