Wind Pressure in the St. Louis Tornado, with Special Reference to the Necessity of Wind Bracing for High Buildings
Very destructive tornadoes have fortunately been infrequent, but the possibility of their occurrence at almost any time cannot be entirely overlooked in the design of structures of great magnitude and cost that may be exposed to then action. On May 27th, 1896, St. Louis was visited by a tornadic storm that caused a loss of 255 lives and the destruction of property to the amount of $12 000 000. Much of the damage was the result of the direct action of the wind, and a few opportunities occurred to determine the intensity of the wind pressures which prevail in such storms.
