In accordance with your authorization, Federal Engineering & Testing, Inc. has performed Tile Uplift Testing in
compliance with Testing Application Standards TAS -106 and the Florida Building Code High Velocity Hurricane Zone on
November 22, 2017 at the above referenced project. The purpose of our inspection was to determine the uplift capacity
of the roof tiles for the residence at the above referenced project.
The subject roof consisted of S -Shaped Concrete Tile Foam Set. The pitch of the subject roof is 4/12. Our field engineer
visited the site and conducted 3 uplift tests on the roof tiles. All tests were performed according to the Florida Building
Code High Velocity Hurricane Zone and protocol TAS -106 using an Intercomp Scale Model CS200. The following is a
summary of results:

All test results were found to be in compliance with TAS -106 and the Florida Building Code
The test results are limited to the tested areas. If other roof areas exhibit different conditions, it should be brought to our
attention for remedial work. This uplift test is not a roof top inspection. A final roof inspection must be conducted by the
building official for approval. The test results presented reflect the condition of the roof system at the time of the test.
These results are time and sample dependent since roof conditions are continuously changing due to exposure to the
elements. Federal Engineering & Testing, Inc. is an independent third party providing un -biased testing information and
results and is not affiliated with our client nor do we have any financial interest in the project or determination of the test
results. As mutual protection to clients, the public and ourselves, all reports are submitted as the confidential property
