As wind is a randomly varying dynamic
phenomenon, it has significant dynamic effects on
buildings and structures especially on high rise flexible
structures. Codes and standards utilize the ‘’gust loading Cdyn = ( )

high-rise structures. The concept of GLF was first
introduced by davenport in 1967. Wind is air in motion Where Ih = turbulence intensity, obtained from table 31 of

III. DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURAL MODEL

Twenty five storey building is considered having 8 bays in

X and Y directions with plan dimension 40x40m and
storey height 3.5m each in all the floors and spacing is
5m.the building is kept symmetric in both mutually
perpendicular directions in plan to avoid torsional effects.
The orientation and size of column is kept some
throughout the height of the structure. The building is
considered for wind speed zones 47 m/s and the response
obtained. The building is considered as general building
located in terrain category three i.e. has obstruction up to
10m height of building and surface is plain.

VI. CONCLUSIONS
Drift Vs Storey No
1) Dynamic coefficient factor not only varies with the
0.0007 height of the structure but is also influenced by
0.0006 wind speed zones.
2) Dynamic wind load increases with increase in
