Bridges are facilities that are in exploitation outdoor. Often the wind is the leading horizontal force in the transverse direction. Therefore the bridges have received the due attention in the standards for wind loading. Unfortunately, in all available standards for wind load on the bridges, one, summarized value of the aerodynamic coefficient is ...

Wind loading and wind barriers
2007One of the sections of the highway connecting the cities Zagreb and Split is 25 kilometers long. This is the section running between the Tunnel Sveti Rok to the Maslenica Interchange. It passes through rough relief where the Velebit Mountain and the Adriatic coast meet. This is actually the main reason for the strong wind genesis.

Numerical study of wind loads on buildings induced by downbursts
Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 2019The wind characteristics of downbursts are quite different from those of turbulent boundary layers. Non-stationarity (e.g., a severe moving downdraft and a strong divergent outflow near the ground) causes severe damage to buildings and structures. In our

A review of transmission line systems under downburst wind loads
Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 2018Outages of power due to transmission tower failures can cause social and economic disasters. Investigations of transmission line failures around the world have recorded that they are generally from high intensity winds from downbursts and tornadoes ...

Wind loads on wind permeable facades
Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 1994Abstract This paper presents results of a fundamental, experimental study on wind loading of porous facade systems. The important parameters — relative building dimensions, porosity, and gap width — have been varied systematically in a model scale study. Both time averaged and fluctuating pressures have been measured.

Identification of wind loads on super-tall buildings by Kalman filter
Computers & structures, 2018An inverse method based on the discrete time Kalman filter is developed to simultaneously estimate the unknown wind-induced responses and wind loads of high-rise buildings using limited response measurements.

This helpful guide focuses on the wind load provisions of Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures, Standard ASCE/SEI 7-10 , that affect the planning, design, and construction of buildings for residential and commercial purposes. The 2010 revision of the Standard significantly reorganized the wind load provisions, expanding them from ...

Abstract A wind-tunnel study has been carried out to assess wind loads on parapets of two buildings. Local pressure coefficients were measured on models with a length to height ratio ( L / H ) of 1:1 and 2:1. Most of the results were obtained for full-scale equivalent parapet heights of 1 and 2 m and for wind directions of 0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°

Fragility analysis of a transmission tower under combined wind and rain loads
Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 2020Frequently, only one parameter is used in fragility evaluations for engineering structures under environmental loads. However, there are two intensity measures (IMs) for combined wind and rain loads.
