Description

This is the sixth in a series of Digests which is compatible with the proposed British Standard BS 6399: Part 2. It provides data on pressure coefficients for the walls and roofs of bluff-shaped buildings to enable loads to be derived. The procedure outlined in the Digest is limited to rectangular buildings with flat, gabled or hipped roofs but it is applicable in principle to buildings of more complex shape. The assessment of pressure coefficients for such buildings is provided in Part 2 of The designer's guide to wind loading of building structures.
