Wind-Induced Motion and Human Discomfort in Tall Buildings
The aspects of wind-induced building motion and the resulting human response are investigated. A comfort criterion and rational approach for considering this problem in building design are proposed. The physical character of wind-induced building acceleration motion is described and methods for estimating acceleration are considered. A simplified analytical approach in equation and design chart form is presented. The general problem of human reaction to building motion is discussed and the result of human response surveys conducted in two tall buildings after severe wind storms are reported.
