Tall buildings are particularly susceptible to wind loads, which usually govern the design of lateral load-resisting systems. Therefore, wind loads must be adequately evaluated in the design of tall buildings. Aerodynamic modifications are highly effective tools for reducing wind loads. This paper i...
