摘要: A large-scale experimental study is presented to investigate the wind loading mechanism on concrete roof pavers flat of a low rise building. The experiments were performed in Wall Wind, hurricane testing facility at Florida International University. Both blow-off tests and pressure measurements top bottom surfaces performed. Attention was focused accurate investigation net distributions effect pavers' edge-gap/spacer height ratio performance paving systems. results showed that increasing edge-gap spacer parameter decreases pressures pavers. Results are compared with those obtained from measurements.
