The climate is changing, and ‘freak’ cyclonic winds are becoming more regular in Adelaide and South Australia. “Freak” climate condition is becoming more of an expectation than an unusual occurance!
Here is one news extract from one of the many wild storms to hit South Australia of the years –
Extreme weather and Statewide Power Failure
“The tornadoes caused damage to 23 transmission towers and at 3.48pm, the state experienced a ‘black system event’ – a state-wide power outage. At 5.30pm, the event was declared a ‘Major Incident’ by the State Coordinator. Subsequently, the Department of Communities and Social Inclusion Chief Executive was appointed to the role of Assistant State Coordinator Recovery.” Read the full story here.
South Australia is getting more and more wild weather causing millions of dollars of damage. You can read about the worst of these storms here. Property destruction, carports and sheds have been destroyed and the question is was this destruction necessary if all of these sheds, barns and carports had been built to the Australian Standards?
The Shed Health Test
Developing sheds and carports capable of taking an additional load of solar panels lead to some discoveries. Developing shed and carports capable of and additional load of 20kg per square metre on the roof to allow the retrofit of Solar panels meant looking at what is available now. Professional Choice Sheds has some remarkable discoveries to share!
Some the best engineers in Australia discovered that to make a shed or carport strong enough to take solar panels, on average their sheds were coming in at over 40% more mass (heavier) than almost all other sheds in Australia.
Surprise finding you can use to find the best shed.
On further investigation as to why they were so much stronger, it was discovered that nearly all existing steel sheds are not built to Australian Standards. Sheds available fell into 2 categories: –
- Manufacturers using cheap imported mild steel from China, South Korea and India
- Manufacturers using much stronger high tensile Australian made steel.
It was surprising to find that many were rating inferior mild steel the same as high quality, heavier high tensile Australian steel. They failed the Australian Standards Test!
Even those using Australian Steel, (even some of our best-known companies), were sometimes breaking their own installation rules. They were not using enough steel to keep the deflection (or sag) within Australian Standards.
Little wonder there was so much damage to these steel structures. It’s now quite simple to check what you are buying. You can avoid the strong possibility of an insurance claim being rejected.
