WIND
• Wind is a moving mass of air . Buildings and other structures represent
obstacles that deflect or impede the wind , covering the kinetic energy of the
moving air mass into the potential energy of pressure.
• Wind loads result from the forces exerted by the kinetic energy of the moving
mass of air , which can produce a combination of direct pressure , negative
pressure or suction , and drag forces on buildings and other obstactles in its
path.
• Wind forces are typically assumed to be applied normal , or perpendicular ,
to the affected surfaces of the building.
• Wind pressure increases as a function of wind velocity. The average mean
wind velocity for any particular area , measured over a long period of time ,
generally increases with height . The rate of increase of the mean velocity is
also a function of the ground roughness and the interference offered by
surrounding objects that include other buildings , vegetation , and land
forms.

Variation of Wind Velocity with Height
• Variation of Wind Velocity with
Height-Near the earth’s
surface, the motion is
opposed, and the wind speed
reduced , by the surface
friction.
• At the surface , the wind
speed reduces to zero and
then begins to increase with
height , and at some height,
known as the gradient height,
the motion may be considered
to be free of the earth’s
frictional influence and will
attain its ‘gradient velocity’.
Gradient Height 300 m for flat
ground& 550 m for very rough
terrain
• Wind Effects on Structures Wind effects on structures can be classified
as ‘Static’ and ‘Dynamic’.
• Static-Static wind effect primarily causes elastic bending and twisting of
structure.
• Dynamic for tall, long span and slender structures a ‘dynamic analysis’
of the structure is essential . Wind gusts cause fluctuating forces on the
structure which induce large dynamic motions , including oscillations.
