Abstract
This paper deals with wind environmental problems around buildings which, recently, have given cause for concern in Japan. We will consider the general trend of handling such problems, and a short history of how such problems came into being will be presented. Full-scale test data and wind tunnel test data obtained during research into these problems will also be explained. Full-scale test data used in this paper and those obtained at the Shinjuku Development Area, where a number of skyscrapers now stand, and their similarity with wind tunnel test data, will be discussed. Moreover, numerous basic wind tunnel test data relating to the strong wind region in particular will be considered. Following this, a discussion of a wind environment method applicable to strong wind regions is presented.
