Field Measurement on Translational and Torsional Wind-Induced Response of a High-Rise Building during Typhoon Khanun

Full measurements for the wind field atop a 32-storey building (supported by four huge columns) and for the dynamic responses of different floors were conducted on 15 October 2017 to obtain the translational and torsional responses of the high-rise building during the Typhoon Khanun. The time histories of the torsional angular acceleration responses on the 24th and 32nd floors of the high-rise building were obtained using RA013 rotational accelerometer, and those of the translational acceleration responses on the 6th, 12th, 18th, 24th, 30th and 32nd floors along axial direction were recorded by the translational accelerometer. The variation rules of the translational and torsional acceleration responses with floor height and mean wind speed were disclosed, and the response ratios between the torsional and translational acceleration were analyzed when basic time intervals were 10 min. Based on the target probability method, the value range of the acceleration peak factor with different target reliability under Typhoon Khanun was proposed. The results show that the translational and torsional acceleration peak values and root mean squares are the power functions of mean wind speed. The values of acceleration peak factors are recommended to be 3.0 and 5.0 if target reliabilities are determined as 99.38% and 100%, respectively. Research on torsional response measurements can accumulate valuable scientific data and lay solid foundations for the subsequent studies on the torsional wind-resistant design of high-rise buildings.
