The installation of  natural roof ventilation on steel structure workshops has become more and more common, and it has become a standard ventilation and fire-fighting equipment for industrial plants. However, when install ridge ventilator, clients should pay attention to whether the natural ventilation system can meet the basic performance requirements.

1. Meet the rigidity requirements of plant

The rigidity requirements of natural roof ventilation mainly refer to the ability of the material or structure to resist elastic deformation when subjected to force. The ridge ventilator must ensure that rigidity meets the safety performance requirements during design, production and installation process to ensure the wind resistance, bearing capacity and supporting capacity of the natural ventilator.

2. Whether the functional characteristics of the steel roof ridge vent can meet the requirements of the plant

The natural roof ventilation mainly have the functions of ventilation, lighting and smoke exhaust. For example, steel building ridge vent that focus on ventilation should meet the ventilation and smoke exhaust requirements of the factory building, and the factory buildings that require lighting requirements should be installed daylighting natural ventilator.

3. Meet the local seismic requirements

In addition to the wind load, snow load and rain load of the natural vent, it is also necessary to evaluate the seismic resistance of the roof ridge ventilator.
