Report number: JCUQ-CTS-TR-11Subject: This report presents to engineers, architects and construction managers, in broad outline, the type of research being conducted and the results obtained. The report begins with an historical overview. The effect on pressure coefficients of various parameters has been studied and the results outlined. Some discussion of the design appraoch in the Australian Standard is given and present and future developments in relation to the design of low buildings for wind loads are discussed. Emphasis has been placed on the practical aspects of the results .550.
