wind damage
Wind damage occurs when strong winds exert force on structures, trees, and other objects, causing components to weaken, break, or be displaced. This can lead to damaged roofs, broken windows, fallen branches, and uprooted trees. The severity depends on wind speed, duration, and the object’s strength. Poorly constructed or maintained structures are more vulnerable. Wind can also cause flying debris, posing safety hazards. Understanding wind damage helps in designing more resilient buildings and preparing safety measures to minimize risks during storms or strong gusts.
