Are NLSM vegetated systems wind tested? How Do We Get a P. Eng stamped letter?

Yes! ​NLSM’s vegetated systems are tested to CSA A123.24 and were subjected to 200 km/hour wind forces. We provide a project specific wind uplift letter stamped by a P.Eng upon request. Fun Fact: NLSM’s Dr. Karen Liu and Sasha Aguilera participated in developing the Canadian Standard Test Method for Wind Resistance of Modular Vegetated Roof Assembly – the first such test in the world. Tests were conducted at the National Research Council laboratory in Ottawa, Ontario and at the UL laboratory in Montreal, Quebec. Additionally, NLSM participated in the National Research Council Canada (NRC) field monitoring testing done at Humber College near the Toronto Pearson Airport.
