Event Description
In this presentation Insol talk about the contributing factors and root causes of wind noise on building facades, covering a number of design and risk mitigation strategies. They will also cover off some details on our Façade Testing Laboratory, https://www.insol.co.nz/the-wind-tunnel
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
- Identify different types of wind-induced noise on non-envelope façades, explain their causes, and recognize materials requiring special consideration when specifying.
- Evaluate and apply design strategies and proven methodologies to mitigate and resolve wind-noise issues in building projects.
- Specify appropriate pre-engineer products to minimise project risks and ensure more reliable design outcomes.
