Abstract
This experimental study is carried out to investigate the effects of the angle between an inclined surface on a building and the direction of the wind flowing towards it on the vertical component of the reaction force of the inclined surface against the wind load acting on it. An experimental approach is chosen for the study. Wind effect and the surface of the building are modeled by using a leaf blower which creates a wind flow towards a plate that is standing on an electronic scale with an angle. The change in the mass measured by the electronic scale was used to calculate the vertical component of the reaction force. The graph of the angle between the plate and the wind flow versus vertical component of the reaction force indicates that the force is directly related with both sine and cosine values of the angle. More specifically the vertical component of the force is directly proportional with the multiplication of sine and cosine values, that is F = k.sinθ .cosθ, the constant k is a numerical constant calculated as 0,1808 ± 0,006 Newton for the model constructed in the experiment. The experimental error is determined as 3.3%.
