Wind load, uplift forces and a roof terrace balustrade with nothing to anchor to: how BalcoDeck® engineers to BS EN 1991 without a single fixing into the structure
BalcoDeck® has developed a roof terrace balustrade system that complies with UK wind load standards (BS EN 1991) without needing to be fixed into the building structure. Instead of using bolts or anchors, the system relies on a structural platform that resists wind forces through its weight and geometry, preserving the integrity of the waterproof membrane beneath. This approach reduces risk and simplifies compliance for architects and engineers, as it eliminates the need for penetration through
