Abstract
The paper considers likelihood and extent of damage to metal roofing of a typical contemporary (new) Australian house subject to non-cyclonic extreme wind loading. A spatial and time-dependent reliability analysis enables fragility curves to be developed that relate likelihood and extent of roof cover loss to gust wind speed. It was found that mean extent of roof damage is less than 1% for a 100-year design wind event, and this estimate includes the effect of a dominant opening and construction defects.
