Abstract
This project is focusing on the behavior of the building especially lateral displacement under the action of winds at three different days (29 August 2007, 31 August 2007 and 2 September 2007) and time (6.00 am, 12.00 pm and 6.00 pm). Therefore, it is the main objective of the project to determine the distribution of wind loads at that particular day and time; hence the deformation and stress-strain profile of the building can be obtained by modeling the building using finite element software - LUSAS. The study consists of collection of wind speed data from Malaysian Meteorological Department, Petaling Jaya and the typical plan of the case study area from the Consultant appointed to design the structure of CENDIAKIAWAN Apartments, Perunding Bersatu Sdn.Bhd. The data then is use to determine the wind pressure act on the surface of the building at each level before it is converted to load which is act at the intersection between beams and columns. Modeling the building by using LUSAS where the behavior of the building can be obtained after executing the software. From the project, the deformation and stress-strain profile shows variation of behavior of the building which has been affected by the wind pressure.
