Wind Performance Assessment of Buildings
This paper describes a method to better understand the risk of life, occupancy and economic losses that could occur during windstorms. Wind performance assessment of a 10-story steel-frame office building was accomplished by determining the building response for increasing levels of wind intensity using modified wind history records from wind tunnel testing. The sensitivity of key building components—both structural components and non-structural components—to wind-induced motion was determined by adapting tools and procedures originally developed for a seismic performance assessment. The results indicated that the building was habitable during service-level windstorms, and that damage to cladding, and a need for the repair of structural components, was expected during strength-level and near-collapse level windstorms.
