Join METALCON Online and the MCA as they discuss new a new ANSI test Method. In 2019, the Metal Construction Association Released ANS!/MCA FTS-1, Test Method for Wind Load Resistance of Flashings Used with Metal Roof Systems. This test was developed by the MCA through the SPRI canvassing process and its purpose is to ensure that metal flashings, particularly those along the eaves of a building, remain intact during a design-level wind event and was based on investigation programs conducted by RICOWI. This presentation will introduce the test and explain how it can be used by stakeholders to help prevent wind and water damage to metal roof systems over a closely fitted deck.
