Overview

Field monitoring assesses wind loads in a high-density urban area, suggesting implications for structural safety.

Key Points

  • This research aims to analyze the wind characteristics affecting a super tall building under construction in Shanghai.
  • Utilized long-term wind field monitoring data from a super high-rise building.
  • Employed statistical methods to analyze mean and fluctuating wind characteristics.
  • Examined seasonal variations in dominant wind directions.
  • Mean wind direction distribution aligns with code statistics, showing seasonal variability.
  • Mean wind profile exponent found to be 0.39, higher than the reference value for Terrain Category D.
  • Turbulence intensity stabilizes with increased wind speed, with a ratio of along-wind to cross-wind turbulence intensity of 1:0.59.
  • Mean peak factor measured at 2.52, with significant correlations noted between turbulence intensity and gust factor.
