Intent

Intent 1:

To limit the probability that the calculation of wind load used for the design will not take into account the effects of wind turbulence and dynamic amplification, which could lead to:

  • the excessive deformation of, or excessive stress in, structural elements, which could lead to damage to the building, or
  • the excessive deflection of structural elements, which could impede the intended use and occupancy of the building.
