Abstract
The paper focuses on wind tunnel model tests of a tall office building planned in the inner centre of Warsaw, Poland. The tests were performed at the aerodynamic tunnel of Wind Engineering Laboratory of Cracow University of Technology for two development scenarios – with and without a hotel located in close proximity of the subject building. The pressure tests aimed to determine the pressures acting on the building’s cladding and the horizontal forces and tipping moments resulting from wind load acting on the structure and its foundation. The 2 tested scenarios allowed for an assessment of the aerodynamic interference resulting from the hotel and analysing of two potential wind load cases during the structural design. This makes the work valuable both from the scientific point of view as a case study of airflows in dense city development and from the practical point of view, because the results may be applied by the consulting engineers in their calculations.
