Many transmission structures are tested to failure at full-scale, leading to an improved understanding of capacity compared to most structures. Typically when extreme wind events occur, the maximum ...
In a long-awaited, historic step toward “real" not cookbook wind engineering, the Structural Engineering Institute of the American Society of Civil Engineers recently issued a recommended alternative ...
Simulation of wind flows around the model of Austin’s 321 West 6th Street illustrates the E-SE wind direction that resulted in the largest cross-wind response on the 58-story high-rise. The hotter the ...
