Abstract

A full-scale experiment undertaken on a portion of a large aircraft hangar at Jan Smuts Airport from 1980 to 1988 is presented. The instrumentation for this experiment consisted of 50 differential pressures transducers located at one corner of the hangar (49 external and 1 internal), on both the wall and roof, and wind speed and direction measurements. The paper concentrates on the pressures obtained for the roof of the hangar. A companion paper presents a comparison between the full-scale and wind-tunnel tests undertaken at the Division of Building Technology, CSIR.
