- W4239682176 abstract "This chapter discusses the characteristics of extreme windstorms, fundamental wind loading concepts, wind-structure interaction, and wind loading criteria. The designer of low-rise buildings should be conversant with the nature of extreme winds that can affect the specific structure being designed. In discussing strong winds, three types of winds are usually identified: straight, hurricane, and tornado winds. Hurricanes and tornadoes obviously involve rotating winds. Straight winds include winds emanating from cyclones and cold fronts, downslope winds, and downbursts. Natural and man-made obstructions retard movement of air near the ground surface. This surface roughness causes a reduction of wind speed near the surface within the planetary boundary layer. The variation of wind speed with height below gradient height is strongly influenced by terrain roughness. The smooth flow of air cannot negotiate the sharp corners at wall corners, eaves and roof corners. As a result, a separation of flow from the boundary surface takes place." @default.
