Abstract
A new Super High Tensile Strength Tape (SHTST) which delivers super high performance in strength and low elongation which can be used in a roof reinforcing and attaching system to aid in securing the roofing members and supporting walls to the building's foundation, so as to supplement and unify the roofing assembly and wall sections in resistance to lift-off, failure and destruction in high-wind, seismic and other destructive events. Said SHTST can also be used in applications for automotive and vehicular, for packaging, for industrial uses, for military applications and for any other application where significant reinforcing and unifying resistance to destructive forces is desired.
