Analysis of Structures Having an Irregular Cross-Section Subjected to a Wind Load

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper presents an analysis of wind effects acting upon the structures having an irregular shape. The calculation of pressure distribution around the perimeter of irregularly-shaped structure is presented. The example shows the analysis techniques employing both values from the valid standards and results of a numerical calculation of flux of an irregularly shaped structure.
