the area is fairly level except for Mount Royal t o the northwest. Figure 2 is an enlarged view of the immediate surroundings. Wind pressures on the 34- story building (building

B)

were found to be signifi- cantly influenced by the presence of the nearby tall buildings, particularly the 600-ft cruciform building to the northwest.

2.2. Installation of Pressure Taps

The instrumented floors are the 10th and the 33d, a t heights, respectively, of 134 and 413 f t above the street. The total height of the building is 440 f t and the plan dimensions are 119 by 173 ft. The exterior wall surface is plane except for 8-in. deep mullions, 4 f t 8 in. apart, which run the full height of the building. At the mechanical floors, however, there are horizontal louvers, and the curtain wall is set back about 5 in. from the plane of the exterior wall. The louvers show up as dark bands on the wall sur- faces in figure 3.

Holes %in in diameter were drilled through the curtain wall into the space behind the louvers about 2 ft above floor level a t intervals of approxi- mately 24 f t all around the building a t the two levels, except where locations were inaccessible because of equipment placed in the way. Any 12 of a total of 49 holes could be used as outside pressure taps for the 12 transducers, which were used to convert pressure differences into electrical signals for con- venient transmission to a central recording location.

FIGURE 3. Thirty-four-story office building looking south- east (relative to building). Dark bands a1.e a t 10th and 33d floors, where mechanical scrviccs are located and wind pressure measurenlents were taken.

2.3. Sensors and Recording Equipment

The turbulent nature of wind requires that speed, direction, and pressure a t several locations on the building be recorded simultaneously and continu- ously for periods preferably longer than 10 or 15 minutes a t a time. The response of the sensors and the capacity of the recording equipment should be sufficiently high to record fluctuations with frc- quencies u p to several cycles per second. The equip- ment used for the instrunlentation of the 34-story office building met most of the requirements, but in the final analysis of the records an upper frequency limit of 0.5 cyclc/scc was imposed to keep the task of manually preparing digitized records within reasonable bounds.

The pressure sensor, or transducer, of which there were 12, comprises an elastic steel diaphragm divid- ing a chamber conncctcd, on one sidc, by about 2

stant with rcspect t o tilnc and with rcspect to posi- tion in spacc. Stationarity and honlogcncity hold only approxilnatcly for ficld m c a s u r c ~ ~ ~ c n t s , if a t all, and thcn only if care is usccl in sclccting suitablc portions of thc total rccord for clctailccl analysis. In principle, it would bc bcst to use as long a rccord as possible to improve thc reliability of estirnatcs of means, vari:tnccs, and distributions of variances ac- cording to freclucncy (power spectral density).

It

was founcl, however, t h a t portions of record ~ n u c h over 5 t o 10 ininutcs often contained "trends" or variations in the mean value, and these coillplicatcd the analysis.

There was no particular difficulty in satisfying the requiremcnts of stationarity in the wind tunnel, but in considcration of the objective of simulating ficld conditions it was thought more ilnportailt t o reflect thc nonhon~ogencities of the prototype situn- tion rather than to have the thcorctical advantages of the honlogeneous flow. T h e land contours of the eastern entl of Mount Royal rverc, therefore, inodelecl in order t o introduce the same sort of spatial varia- tion of velocity as might be founcl in the fielcl (Fig. 4).

3.2. Time Scaling

The tirnc interval ovcr which niean vclocitics ancl prcssurcs wcrc avcragcd was choscn to distinguish t~ctwecn (a) thc random fluctuations about the mcan, and (h) the inuch slolvcr variation of the mcan wind vclocity and thc corrcsl~oncling prcssurcs in rcsponsc to changing wcathcr conclitions. A scaling p:~ramctcr with rcspect to tinlc must therefore bc consiclcrccl when conlparing fielcl and rnodel incasurcmcnts.

For purposes of comparing avcraging times the nondimcnsional parainetcr t o be kept the same for inotlcl and full scale is:

L

where

V =

t

The ratio of mcan vclocity in the tunnel t o mean vclocity in the field rangccl fro111 about 0.50 to 0.75, and thc length scale for the illode1 was 1:400. An averaging time of 30 inin in ficld measureincnts

Of particular intcrcst wcl-e measurements on the Empire State Building, reportccl ncarly 30 years ago by Rathbun [14]. Thc wind tunnel tests for this building were carried out a t the National Bureau of Standards and the results were presented in 1933 by Drydcn and Hill [15]. No comparison of the prcs- surcs on thc inoclcl and those on the builcling was presented in thc paper by IEathbun, prcsurnnbly hccausc there appeared to bc very little agreement. Thc author tlicrcfore madc several cornparisons similar to thc two illustrated in Figures 5 and 6 for the 34-story building. Agreement was poor for

Thcre wcre, howcvcr, other itcms for which the agrcement in prcssurc distribution was good, cxccpt that the scale (i.e. thc rcfcrcncc dynnmic pressure) seemed considcrably smaller for the full-scale results. The two examples givcn in Icigurcs 7 and 8 wcrc chosen to parallel as closely as possible the examples of Figures 5 and 6. One reading on the 75th floor in Figure 7 secms to be a clear case of mistaken sign, and has been plotted a t its probable value as a cross. The deviations from the model prcssurc distribu- tions in Figurcs 7 and 8 arc rather larger than those in Figures 5 and 6, and the scale is consistently smallcr. Thc improved agrccment of the rcccnt comparison can be attributed to improvements in both the instrumentation of the full-scalc building and the modcling techniques used in the wind tunnel.
