Holistic testing to determine quantitative wind-driven rain intrusion for shuttered and impact resistant windows
Tropical storms are usually associated with heavy rainfall. The interaction between rain and
wind during such tropical storms affect various components of a building façade. The …

Experimental investigation of wind-driven rain propagation in a building interior
Posthurricane surveys have shown that building interior damage often results from water
intrusion into the building interior. The interior damage can make up 50%–100% of the total …

Dependence of internal pressure in low-rise buildings on aerodynamic parameters, defect features and background leakage
Internal pressure is an important parameter in the estimation of wind effects on low-rise
buildings. Cracks and defects located around building fenestrations, lead to air leakage that …
