Abstract
An accurate probabilistic representation of input forces and structural response in the extreme region is essential for the assurance of the safety and reliability of structures subjected to environmental loads. When the loads differ significantly from the Gaussian, they may increase expected damage. The design loads of a cladding glass subjected to the local wind pressures must not exceed the allowable load of a glass panel. The design loads of a cladding glass can be dependent on whether the local wind pressures have a non-Gaussian or Gaussian distribution. In this study, comparing non-Gaussian local wind pressures with Gaussian local wind pressures, and comparing the equivalent 1-min loads of cladding glass subjected to the simulated non-Gaussian local wind pressures with those of cladding glass subjected to the simulated Gaussian local wind pressures are performed to investigate the effect of non-Gaussian local wind pressures on a side face of a square building.
