    polypropylene fibers in concrete

    And all this time I had been under the impression that rebar and concrete had the same expansion rates. (I need to inform my professors). Thanks Ginger.

    Wind effects on buildings

    Thanks Ron. What I am talking about is the Venturi Effect, or tunnel effect. These buildings are not enclosed at the top, and what I need to know is: At what elevation would the Atmospheric pressure prevent air from lifting over the building. Thanks.

    Wind and It's Effect on Urban Buildings

    Also, how tall must the building be before the weight of the atmosphere prevents updrafts? These buildings are 16 feet tall, do I event need to worry about it? If not, why not?

    Wind effects on buildings

    Also, how tall must the building be before the compression of the atmosphere prevents an updraft? These buildings are 16 feet tall, do I even need to worry about it? If not, why not? Thanks again.

    Wind effects on buildings

    I have a design in which 2 buildings in relation to each other my compress and therefore amplify wind speed. Is there any resource to confirm or tell me more about this effect.

    I have a design where 2 buildings in relation to eachother may compress the wind and increase it's speed. Is there any refrence that could confirm this effect? Thanks
