【 摘 要 】

The purpose of structural analysis and design of structures as per the building codes and its corresponding standers is to ensure the safety of structure under maximum loads and remains functional under service load. The structure which is designed under consideration of codes should also satisfy the durability, economy and aesthetics. The primary purpose of this work is to understand and compare design wind loads according with the Gust Response Factor as per codes of practices. The paper is concerned with the calculation of design wind loads on a rectangular building model (1:300gemetric scale) of size 10cm x 15cm x 70cm with an aspect ratio of 1:1.5:7 at eight different levels over the height under sub-urban terrain category for 00angle and 900angle wind incidence. The experiment id conducted in an atmospheric boundary layer wind tunnel facility of CSIR-Structural engineering Research centre, Chennai. The measured pressures are integrated to evaluate mean and RMS (Root, Mean, Square). Further the variation of above mentioned loads and response factor along the heights of the building with respect to sub-urban terrain condition are discussed and summarized in addition, the codal values of various international standards [IS-875 part-3 1987, IS-875 part-3 draft, ASCE-07] have also considered for comparison.
