2. Roof decks that have been installed with large nails and close
spacing.
3. Hurricane clips/straps that hold the roof structure to the walls.
4. Protection of Openings such as windows and glass doors with
impact resistant glazing or other protection systems.
5. Secondary Water Resistance that prevents the roof from leaking if
the roof covering is blown off in a windstorm.
6. Roof Design, Hip roofs seem to divert the stronger winds and
therefore sustain less damage.

MIAMI-DADE VS. FLORIDA BUILDING CODE |
After Hurricane Andrew devastated South Florida in 1992, Miami-
Dade, Broward, and unincorporated Palm Beach counties passed
building codes that required new homes to be built with opening
protection (impact-resistant windows and doors, or impact-resistant
coverings, such as shutters, for windows and doors). These codes
also included standards for how opening protection products would
be tested and approved for use.
Today, the Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) is the best way
to be sure the products you buy pass the strictest tests in the country
for windborne debris, pressure, and water.
All opening protection products that have received a Miami-Dade
NOA are also approved by the Florida Building Code. But the
reverse is not true. That’s because the Florida Building Code test
standards do not disqualify an opening protection product, a shutter
for example, that allows for the possibility of glass breakage during a
hurricane. A product that allows for glass breakage during testing
would not be approved for use by the Miami-
Dade Code.
You can learn whether a product you are considering has received a
Miami-Dade NOA by visiting the Miami-Dade Building Code
Compliance website at: www.miamidade.gov/buildingcode/ -- look
for the Search Approved Products tab under Product Control on the
site’s menu.
