This study proposes a wind pressure zoning method based on weighted K-Means cluster analysis to determine the envelope of extreme wind pressure coefficients in different locations. The method is applied to low-rise and high-rise buildings and produces consistent results with the wind pressure distribution, aiding in the determination of design wind load for cladding and components.
The wind pressure distribution on building surface is uneven and it varies considerably due to wind turbulence. The engineering design of cladding and components of a building often requires knowledge of the envelope of extreme wind pressure coefficients (Cp) over all directions at different locations. This study proposes a zoning method based on weighted K-Means cluster analysis with the criterion of similar extreme Cp and their proximal spatial locations within the zone. An optimal set of weighting factors is estimated by a new algorithm to balance the influences of the extreme Cp and their spatial locations. The sum of squares of distance and the mean silhouette coefficient are adopted to reduce the range of cluster number studied to improve the efficiency of ranking the clustering results. The proposed wind pressure zoning method based on clustering is further modified to avoid multiple folds or zones with too small an area. An evaluation criterion is proposed to finalize the wind pressure zoning results. The proposed method is then applied to the roof/walls of low-rise and high-rise buildings. Results are noted consistent with the wind pressure distribution of the structures, which is helpful for determining the design wind load of cladding & component.
