Wind-Tunnel Study of Wind Loading on a Compliant Offshore Platform
Two models, with scales of 1/250 and 1/500, of an offshore oil platform were tested in a wind tunnel to obtain static forces for various wind directions. Two peak wind velocities were used: 54 fps and 108 fps. The measured shears and moments along wind were generally in reasonably good agreement with previous results obtained in a different wind tunnel using larger models. The agreement for transverse forces and moments and for torsion was not as satisfactory.
