An Investigation of Wind Effects on Structures

更新项目是为了继续收集 现场数据，即，同时风速和动态 上海电视塔的反应记录。 仪器已安装，数据已开始 被记录下来 两年多的数据收集将 发生，利用网站的高 极端风事件的强度和频率。 的 产生的数据库将有利于结构和风力 工程界，并将改善 关于横向荷载对结构影响的知识 因此，安全设计 建筑物和构筑物。

The renewal project is to continue the gathering of field data, viz., simultaneous wind speeds and dynamic response records on the Shanghai Television Tower. Instrumentation has been installed and data has started to be recorded. Two more years of data gathering will take place, taking advantage of the site's high intensity and frequence of extreme winds episodes. The data base produced will benefit the structural and wind engineering community, and will also improve the knowledge on the effects of lateral loads on structures caused by natural hazards thus, the safety design of buildings and structures.
