The specific hail requirement for a hospital building may vary depending on factors such as the location, local building codes, and the type of construction. Generally, hospital buildings need to be designed to withstand severe weather conditions, including hail. The requirements may include using hail-resistant materials for the roof, such as impact-resistant shingles or metal panels, as well as ensuring adequate structural integrity to withstand hail impact. It is important to consult the local building codes and regulations, as well as engage with architects, engineers, and construction professionals experienced in hospital building design to determine the specific hail resistance requirements for a particular hospital building project.
