Dear All:
I do experience with one irregular shape building before. The shape of the building is something like Burj Dubai (three wings). What i did is by assinging the axis of wind at every 10 degree interval. Eventually, i have 36 wind direction. Then, design all the vertical element for the worst case. Pls correct me if i am wrong.

Yes, i am using directional method.
Go to following link to get the Wind Tunnel Report that i uploaded. So, u can have some idea what is it all about. *************************************** |
