Discuss the relationship between the building form and wind loads. • Provide calculations for stiffening than may be required
Wind loading
Calculate the following wind loads for the above scenario. For the basic wind speed Vb choose a city name starting with your first initial. Write all the formulas clearly and referring to the clause no, figure no or Table no of the standard you are using. Assume the wind blowing towards the longer direction of the building.
• Dynamic wind pressure
• Wind Load on the building long wall.
• Overall lateral load on the building due to wind
• Uplift load on the roof.
In addition, you are to:
• Discuss methods to resist/manage wind loads.
• Discuss the relationship between the building form and wind loads.
• Provide calculations for stiffening than may be required
