The wind pressure test is performed with multi-point pressure measurement system, which evaluates wind pressure through calibrated pressure tubes installed on a rigid model. The results provide pressure coefficients (means, rms, peak value), which can be analyzed to estimate proper design pressure of claddings. Details of the model is a must for this test as the pressure applied to a point may vary due to the reproducibility of the model to the real structure. The distortion effects caused by the distance between the model point and the pressure transducer is also corrected. In similar fashion to the High Frequency Force Balance approach, the results are derived by pressure integral method (PIM) and results are subsequently used to provide the estimates of the full scale response of the buildings.

▣ Pressure for cladding design
▣ Wind load for structural design
▣ Differential pressure for parapet, canopy, free-standing wall, etc.
▣ Overall wind loads and responses by pressure integral method
