Low-rise buildings
Low-rise buildings : enclosed structures less than 50 feet (15 metres) in height
Immersed within aerodynamic roughness - high turbulence, shelter
effects are important
Sustain most damage in severe wind storms
Extensive research on wind loads in 1970s, 1980s and 1990s - wind
tunnel and full scale
Wind loads on roofs are very important
Internal pressures are important - especially for dominant openings
Resonant effects are negligible

General flow characteristics :
Flow separates at leading edge of roof and at ridge for roof pitches greater than
about 10o

Structural loads :
Calculate peak structural loads and effective static load distributions :
Instantaneous load around frame will vary in magnitude and distribution
Codes and standards give simplified uniform distributions on surfaces

Structural loads :
Load effect e.g knee bending moment will experience maximum and
minimum values during a storm :
Either or both values may be critical - depending on b.m. due to dead load
Each peak value has an expected pressure distribution associated with it
