Low-rise Buildings and Architectural Aerodynamics
The influence of Wind Engineering on Architectural Aerodynamics has traditionally been focused on expensive, tall structures. For a variety of reasons (reduced cost of the wind-tunnel study, population moves to the tropics yielding a higher hurricane exposure, architecturally-complex, lowrise, community buildings, etc.) the wind tunnel is being increasingly used to study more modestly priced and/or smaller structures. This paper looks at the evolution of wind engineering into a mature architectural service and speculates on the needs and likely outcomes of future growth.
