Design wind loads including torsion for rectangular buildings with horizontal aspect ratio of 1.6. Elsharawy, M., Galal, K., & Stathopoulos, T.

Paper abstract bibtex Limited information is available regarding wind-induced torsional loads on buildings. This paper presents results of tests carried out in a boundary-layer wind tunnel using building models with the same plan dimensions (aspect ratio of 1.6) and located in a simulated open terrain exposure for different wind directions. Synchronized wind pressure measurements allowed estimating instantaneous base-shear forces and torsional moments on the tested rigid building models. Results were normalized and presented in terms of shear and torsional coefficients for two load cases, namely: maximum torsion and corresponding shear, and maximum shear and corresponding torsion. Comparison of the wind-tunnel test results with current torsion- and shear-related provisions in the American standard demonstrates good agreement for low-rise buildings but differences for medium-rise buildings. © 2013 American Society of Civil Engineers.
