Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides structural engineers with the knowledge and practical tools needed to perform structural designs for wind that incorporate major technological, conceptual, analytical and computational advances achieved in the last two decades. With clear explanations and documentation of the concepts, methods, algorithms, and software available for accounting for wind loads in structural design, it also describes the wind engineer's contributions in sufficient detail that they can be effectively scrutinized by the structural engineer in charge of the design. Wind Effects on Structures: Modern Structural Design for Wind, 4th Edition is organized in four sections. The first covers atmospheric flows, extreme wind speeds, and bluff body aerodynamics. The second examines the design of buildings, and includes chapters on aerodynamic loads; dynamic and effective wind-induced loads; wind effects with specified MRIs; low-rise buildings; tall buildings; and more. The third part is devoted to aeroelastic effects, and covers both fundamentals and applications. The last part considers other structures and special topics such as trussed frameworks; offshore structures; and tornado effects. Offering readers the knowledge and practical tools needed to develop structural designs for wind loadings, this book: Points out significant limitations in the design of buildings based on such techniques as the high-frequency force balance Discusses powerful algorithms, tools, and software needed for the effective design for wind, and provides numerous examples of application Discusses techniques applicable to structures other than buildings, including stacks and suspended-span bridges Features several appendices on Elements of Probability and Statistics; Peaks-over-Threshold Poisson-Process Procedure for Estimating Peaks; estimates of the WTC Towers’ Response to Wind and their shortcomings; and more Wind Effects on Structures: Modern Structural Design for Wind, 4th Edition is an excellent text for structural engineers, wind engineers, and structural engineering students and faculty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The brand-new edition—with complete, up-to-date coverage of new methods and standards for the construction of wind-resistant structures Long recognized as the sole source of detailed information on the design of wind-resistant structures, Wind Effects on Structures equips designers and engineers with crucial knowledge concerning the atmosphere, the forces placed on a structure by the wind environment, and the behavior of structures under the action of these forces. Revised, updated, and augmented with material on new building codes, engineering practices, and technology, this latest edition is the most comprehensive and up-to-the-minute reference available on this important subject. New features include: Special material on the design of low-rise buildings, including building code provisions for wind loads on these structures Technical information on hurricane micrometeorology, computational fluid dynamics, empirical aerolastic models, and many other areas Easy-to-use software package for the automatic calculation of wind loads in accordance with ASCE Standard 7-95, and much more The damage done by recent hurricanes such as Andrew and Iniki has inspired a number of significant developments in the wind engineering field, from increased use of technology to predict structural loading to the creation of more stringent building codes. Long recognized as the sole source of detailed information on the design of wind-resistant structures, Wind Effects on Structures has now been fully revised to address these important changes—providing engineers with completely up-to-date methods and standards for the construction of wind-resistant structures. Divided into sections on the atmosphere, wind loads, and their effects on structures, the text now incorporates the latest information on the design of low-rise buildings, revised building code standards, and suspended-span structures, plus new material on an extensive range of technical subjects—including across-wind and torsional effects on tall structures, damping of flexible buildings, and progress in wind tunnel modeling. Combining fundamental concepts with real-world applications, this new edition features an easy-to-use software package that enables fast and accurate calculation of wind loads in line with ASCE Standard 7-95 provisions. Thoroughly updated, revised, and amended, Wind Effects on Structures provides the invaluable guidance designers and engineers need to assure the adequate structural safety and serviceability of virtually any wind-sensitive project.

Download or read book Wind Loading of Structures written by John D. Holmes and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2007-04-17 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridging the gap between wind and structural engineering, Wind Loading of Structures demonstrates the application of wind engineering principles to ensure maximum safety in a variety of structures. This book will assist the practising engineer in understanding the principles of wind engineering, and provide guidance on the successful design of structures for wind loading by gales, hurricanes, typhoons, thunderstorm downdrafts and tornados. The principles of meteorology, statistics and probability, aerodynamics and structural dynamics are covered in the first half of the book. The second half describes, qualitatively and quantitatively, the nature of wind loads on all types of structures, including low-rise and tall buildings, large stadium roofs, towers and chimneys, bridges, transmission lines, free-standing walls and roofs, and antennae. Special features include coverage of extreme winds in tropical and sub-tropical climates, wind-tunnel testing techniques, a summary of the wind climates of over sixty countries, and detailed coverage of internal as well as external wind pressures on buildings. A comparison is made of the provisions for wind loads in six major national and international codes and standards. Examples and case studies are given in each chapter that make the book suitable for supporting university graduate courses in wind loading and response.

This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global economic losses due to severe weather events have grown dramatically over the past two decades. A large proportion of these losses are due to severe wind storms such as tropical cyclones and tornadoes, which can cause destruction to buildings, houses, and other infrastructure over large areas. To address the growing losses, many new large-scale and full-scale laboratories have been developed. These tools are used to examine the issues that could not be solved with the traditional tools of wind engineering including model-scale boundary layer wind tunnels, simplified standardized product tests, and other methods of analysis. This book presents state-of-the-art results from the development of the many novel approaches being used to mitigate natural disasters around the world.

Book excerpt: Wind – a powerful and often destructive force, which can instantly and profoundly alter the skyline or the shoreline of our communities. Structural engineers must be aware of its effects when designing buildings that have to weather its force. This volume provides wind engineering information that will lead to the proper understanding of present and future building codes dealing with wind loads, and proper practices of modern structural engineering.
