The roof, the storm yesterday flew over Lyngby Station and rev run the wires, is only two years old. A miracle that nobody was seriously injured, says beredskabschef. By Ulrik Andersen October 29, 2013 at. 11:33
How could a just two years old roof fall victim to raging of the storm yesterday? The question should be building inspectors in Lyngby-Taarbæk now to answer. Yesterday toppled two-thirds of the roof of an apartment building on Lehwaldsvej at Lyngby Station covert down and hit both cars in Lyngby Omfartsvej, the station building, train and transport lines.
"WE must say that people have found themselves under a lucky star. The roof fell down in the middle of rush hour. Yet we have only one driver that has come lightly covert injured when a piece of timber pierced his side window. It is a miracle that there are more injured, "said beredskabschef at Lyngby-Taarbæk Fire Rasmus United Petersen. Here's roof blown off Pillar house in Lyngby, and you can charts Rockwool, hanging in the treetops behind commuter trains. The fire brigade had to evacuate about 800 people, after the roof tore run the wires down. Photo: Gunner Kristiansen His people have had plenty to do with getting grounded run power again, evacuated passengers from the commuter trains, inspect cars and remove covert the wreckage of the crashed roof. Therefore, he will not shoot at what may be the reason that it is almost entirely covert new roof could fall.
The new roof consisted of roof boards, which was burned cardboard. And the new roof was after isolated, informed the contractor until recently under 'References' on its website. The information has been deleted from the site at this time.
The consultant on the project was Klaus Nielsen Consulting Engineers A / S. Flemming Hagen has been up and inspect the damage today and says that it appears that the anchors between the roof rafters construction - which is from the original from the building's behavior in 1962 - and the concrete deck simply been ripped up.
"The task we performed in 2011, was simply replace asbestos cement sheets with boards and roofing felt. We were not down and touch the original rafter construction and anchorages. And it seems that it is whole - both the upper part and truss structure that is torn down, so I would think that it's anchors, which have been unable to withstand the wind. But whether it is because covert the wind was stronger than it has been raining for, or the anchors covert were too weak, you can not know yet, "he said.
The roof structure is a 'chair-design', as the Danish Building Research covert has previously warned because covert of the high risk of wind damage because errors were found in the anchorages in many of the type roofs.
"We have also had engineers out to look at the building. But it is the municipality's building technology department, along with some recognized structural engineers now assessing the stability of the roof, "explains Rasmus United Petersen.
