Experimental investigation on the effects of inter-layer gaps on wind loads of cantilevered stadium roofs

Abstract: To meet the ventilation requirement, an engineer needs to design the cantilevered roof of a stadium as a layered one with gaps between the layers. In order to further understand the wind resistance performance of such structures, a wind tunnel test was carried out on a 1:200 scaled stadium model considering two roof inter-layer cases: opened gaps and blocked gaps. The laws of lift force coefficients and net wind pressure coefficients were compared for these two gap conditions. The study results indicate that t… Show more

“…Xu and Lou (2018) investigated the internal pressure induced by the openings on a hemiellipsoidal roof and then compared the results with those of wall openings. Dai et al (2020b) also studied the internal and external pressure characteristics of a large span roof caused by gaps on the roof. Wang and Li (2015) studied the characteristics of the internal and external pressures induced by the openings at the corner of a flat roof of a low-rise building, where only the geometry of opening was considered.…”
