An experiment was indertaken in order to explore sensitivity of measured pressures to the accuracy with which the terrain and boundary layer winds are modelled. A 1:100 scale model was tested for a single roof pitch and wind angle and eight different boundary layer simulations. The experiment was conducted as part of a review of the reliability of wind tunnel test data when compared with full scale experiments, such as those carried out by the Building Research Establishment at Aylesbury.
