Is your home ready for the surprising number of tornadoes in Canada ?

WindEEE director, Girma Bitsuamlak, explains to Global News’ Candace Daniel how testing works at the research facility.

At WindEEE, Girma Bitsuamlak and his team study the aerodynamic forces that develop during different wind systems such as tornadoes, hurricanes and downbursts, so that buildings can be designed to withstand them.

“You can design the building environment appropriately … to withstand the tornado load or at least to save lives,” said Bitsuamlak, who is the director of WindEEE.
