Abstract

A comparison between full-scale and wind-tunnel results obtained at the Division of Building Technology for the Jan Smuts full-scale experiment is presented. The comparison refers to the roof pressure transducers only. The comparison between the mean and root-mean-square pressure coefficients is in general satisfactory, although for certain data-sets a noticeable shift between the full-scale and wind-tunnel mean pressure coefficients was observed. In these cases the trend in the full-scale mean pressure coefficients is, however, satisfactorily reproduced. The comparison of the peak pressure coefficients is less satisfactory.
