In previous investigations, a series of wind tunnel tests was conducted on the vibration and scattering behavior of full-sized model of roof tiles, which were used widely for roofings of Japanese wooden dwellings. As a result, the mechanism of vibration and scattering of roof tiles could be understood. This paper describes a water leak test of roof tiles. The 100 roof tiles were set up on 10 lines and 10 rows on the pitched roof in the downstream of the flow from the wind tunnel. The experimental apparatus for the purpose of reproducing the wind and the rain was used. The situation of the water leak test was filmed by video camera. The water leak phenomena in the experiment by using the artificial rain fall apparatus are discussed in this paper.
