A series of aerodynamic experiments of low-rise building models with gable roofs are conducted to investigate the wind loading characteristics under wind action. The pressure measurements were made by the electronic scani-valves system. The depth-to-height ratio, slope of roof and angle of attack of approaching flow were controlled conditions in these experiments. In the first stage of study, the data that collected from experiments was compared with the TTU real field data for validation. The results shown, the distributions of pressures on the roofs of each model are quite similar. The pressure characteristics on the upstream zone are high fluctuation and large peak, and the downstream zone are uniform relatively. The variation of angle of attack for approaching flow will increase the peak in the upstream corner of buildings. With the fluctuation distribution on the surface of model, taking the height of building as characteristic of zone scale is suitable. The proper orthogonal decomposition method (POD) is adopted to analysis the eigen-modes and eigen-values of fluctuating pressure fields. The results shown, the POD is a suitable method to identify the most likely mode shape of the high fluctuating pressure fields. The moment coefficients of beam-column connections of frames were estimated by the covariance integration method. We found that the maximum moment coefficients of frames will appear on the upstream corner. Especially with a small angle of approaching flow, the moment coefficients of frames will be increased for the asymmetric flow field actions. |
