How Roofing Materials Influence Rainwater pH Levels?

When designing or renovating a home, roofing is often considered for its durability, design, and insulation properties. However, one lesser-known aspect of roofing is its impact on rainwater pH levels. Since rainwater harvesting is becoming increasingly popular in Kerala and across India, understanding how different roofing materials influence water chemistry is crucial for maintaining water

The Physics of Roof Vortex Shedding in High Winds

When strong winds flow over a roof, they don’t simply glide past. Instead, they create turbulent air patterns that can generate powerful uplift forces. One key phenomenon is vortex shedding — the repeated formation and release of swirling air vortices from roof edges and ridges. Understanding this physics is critical for designing roofs that withstand

The Effect of Roofing on Radar Imaging Accuracy

Radar systems transmit electromagnetic waves that bounce back from surfaces. By analyzing these echoes, radar can map terrain, detect movement, and visualize built environments. The accuracy of radar images depends on: Surface smoothness (diffuse vs. specular reflection) Material conductivity and permittivity Roof geometry (flat, sloped, curved, or irregular)  Roofing Materials and Their Radar Signatures Metal

Solar-Activated Cooling Roofs With Phase-Change Materials

Roofs have long been seen as barriers against heat. But what if roofs could go a step further — absorbing excess solar energy during the day and releasing cooling effects at night? This vision is becoming reality through solar-activated cooling roofs with phase-change materials (PCMs).  What Are Phase-Change Materials (PCMs)? Phase-change materials are substances that
