Full-scale wind pressures on a permeable roof of a low-rise building

Measurements were operated during years 2000 and 2001 on a full-scale test house on the site of BBRI (Belgium) in order to determine the pressures due to the wind on the roof. This paper presents the measurements results and the pressure coefficients obtained. Results are compared with the values of pressures on the roof given by the calculation method of Eurocode 1 (EC1).
