AeroEdge™ – Vortex Suppression Technology

Wind Force Reduction and Damage Mitigation for Buildings

  • A series of aerodynamic devices to suppress vortices along roof and wall edges.
  • Modification of conventionally-shaped edges at intersection of building surfaces.
  • Mitigation of damage risk at the source of the risk chain:

  • An effective, simple, and inexpensive method to mitigate wind damage to buildings.
  • Wind-tested to be capable of reducing hurricane damage effects by two to four categories
    for roof and wall edge areas where over 70% of wind damage to a building is initiated.
  • Non-intrusive, small in size, and easy to install, ideal for retrofit as well as for new
    construction of both commercial and residential buildings.

Smart Engineering • Practical Design
