Investigation of wind actions on core-walls in high-rise buildings
The objective of this report is to study the wind effects on the design of a lateral load resisting system reinforced concrete (RC) core-wall in high-rise buildings both analytically and numerically. A numerical model was constructed with the aid of commercial software ETABS. The prototype building...
