Excellent content Brendan. Yeah wind loads are some of the complex and confusing ones to design. Phew even the codes are very confusing some times. Keep going.
@@BrendanHasty I was impressed by your Reynolds number response and showing the von Karmen vortex shedding. If you have not seen, check out the black and white book "Album of Fluid Mechanics" and appreciate the "old school" experiments...real craftsmanship. (FYI...considering pursuing some structures courses, but can't decide on traditional civil OR aerospace structures [live in FL where SpaceX, etc. launch from the Cape]).
Hi Dr Ticktock, thanks for the suggestion in will need to check it out. If it was me i would try to work at SpaceX they are pushing the boundaries of engineering which is exciting.
I very much appreciate your videos. I can see your evolution from your earlier days up until now and you have improved greatly (not that your early work was bad or anything! haha). Anyway, keep up the great work. You deserve many more subs ;-)
If the building you are designing is complex, it is better take it to wind tunnel and a CFD simulation is recommended. In many design code, you can get turbulence information in order to define your own turbulence model in CFD. In Eurocode, it is recommended and list the first 3 modal shape shall be taken in consideration. Thank you for your introduction on wind load. It is one of most complex phenomenon in engineering due to structure shape and turbulence and vertex. I appreciate your video very much on the topic .
Hi Bo Zhao, from my research CFD at this stage is only a estimation so it is good for scheming and shaping of the building shape, while Wind tunnel is required confirm the real wind loads. Thanks for the support.
Please do , capping beam , piles and the Shotcrete wall and how they work together structurally speaking and what will happen if piles are out of tolerance.
Great to see your video recently uploaded. Expecting deeper diving with you in upcoming videos, for Wind Loads. Infact, a series would be quite helpful. Terrain mentioned, pertains which code ?
This is to Australian standards however there would be similar categories around the world. Glad that you enjoyed it have many series in planning. Thanks for the support Mairaj.
Love the content! I`m in the prefab-steel and -concrete business, do you have any experience in that field or mostly general construction? If i were to give any criticism/input it would be to show more examples of the different concepts/solutions/details you are covering. For example, lets say you are highlighting different steel connections, show a detail, a picture from an actual site or maybe in a 3D environment. Keep up with the videos, this was the best one so far :)
Hi Millivanilli, thanks for the support, always looking for improvement. I was the lead site engineer on a shopping centre for around 1 year full time but have been involved in a lots of construction and design . agree on getting more example, both real world and drawing, the issue at the moment is finding time. Was thinking of posting 3 videos a month.
@@qureshisiddig9274 Hi Qureshi, typically you need to make sure the building is behaving correctly, so the model response and mass for the building. you need to do wind tunnel testing to ensure the building is behaving correctly.
How does one calculate the thermal wind load - (not wind chill, as that's a human perception), but how many additional watts leak out of a structure related to wind speed? It seems sensible that the humidity and density of the air would correlate with how much heat it can take off a surface per second, but is there an architectural formula treatment for this?
Hi Louie, there is still alot to learn I have a video on Honest tips for engineers that gives some career advice. But in general keep studying, ask questions(but come with solutions doesn't need to be correct. (
I've been wondering whether there are examples of secondary structures that have been built around a primary structure for the purpose of protecting the primary structure from wind loads (artificially increasing the terrain category, or diffusing/deflecting the forces?). A small scale example might be the partially buried earthship structures, but I'm curious about buildings on a larger scale. On new construction, it would make sense to design the structure to shoulder its own wind loads, but for historic structures -- can they be effectively buffered in some way? You said local terrain characteristics would require a distance of approximately 40x the building's height, so perhaps that's not feasible, but I'm still curious.
Hi Steven, I think in theory that would work. It would need to be confirmed by wind tunnel testing, or CFD modelling. The 40 times the height is for if you need estimate the wind speeds, the achievable reduction is only achieved through additional testing.

Thank you Brendan. You're of great help
Hi Phelix that for the support.
Hello Hasty :) My name is Kim. I'm working on structural engineering in S.Korea. Your video is very helpful to me. thanks a lot
Hi Kim, thanks for the support. Glad that the videos are helpful.
First one to watch, love watching your content being a grad. Landed into my first job.
Hi Abhay, thanks for the support. Congratulations on getting your graduate position.
Agreed, great videos for grads!
Thank you for this content Brendan!! Good refreshers.
Hi Jimmy glad that it helped, thanks for the support.
Great video, thanks Brendan!
Hi Ikka, glad that you enjoyed it. Thanks for the support.
Hi Brendan! Love your vids! It would be helpful to have diagrams with your commentary about wind loads, otherwise great vid!
For the last part, that's the Strouhal Number consideration. (Fluids guy). Love your videos.
thanks for the support, and the technical term for the crosswind response.

Hi Follz thanks for the support. Agree my first videos were bad, I look back and cringe. Always looking to get better.

Hey big like to your channel
How many checks do we need to do after applying the Wind load on the high rise building

May be individual videos breaking up the wind loads could be useful.

Thanks Sam.
Thanks for the support Peter.
Can you get any civil engineering types that spend a lot of time outside rather than inside?
Hi Tom, this would involve more in the site work. most design work is done indoors.
@@BrendanHasty what types spend lots of time outside?
@@tomhercus6676 I believe Site engineers and supervisors are the ones.

You should label the segments in detail instead of just saying chapter 1,2,3 etc which doesn’t help.. take this constructively
