IIBEC Members, Staff Visit IBHS Facility

April 14, 2023

The Institute for Building and Home Safety (IBHS) hosted IIBEC members and staff this week at its research center in South Carolina. The IIBEC participants had an informative tour of the research center, including the full-scale main chamber facility, which includes a specially designed wind tunnel that is exceptionally large—6 stories tall and 145 feet wide by 145 feet long—followed by a tour of the hail lab where researchers create hailstones and then fire them at building enclosure components and systems using a hail-firing cannon. IBHS’s lab is the only one in the world that can test full-scale one- and two-story residential and commercial buildings in a controlled, repeatable fashion for highly realistic windstorms, wind-driven rain, hailstorms, and wildfire ember storms.
