Interference Effects on Wind Induced Pressures on Gable Roof

摘要

The present paper presents results of experimental study conducted in the boundary layer wind tunnel to investigate the interference effects among low building. A gable roof building (13x7x5 m) with 20°roof slope is selected to carryout interference studies since it is very frequently used. Interference effects have been studied in the presence of single similar building (same as test building). Both shielding and amplification of suctions is observed for different zones, for different positions of interfering building.
