xvi, 60 p. : ill. (some col.) ; 30 cm. Wind tunnel test has been routinely carried out by professionals in the structural design process to determine the wind characteristic on the structure. This is very important to measure how the wind flows through the structure. Lack of consideration of wind load given in design stage can cause failure. Nowadays, construction at hilly area become rapidly increase. This study was focused on the wind speed characteristic due to hill slope. The characteristic of wind can be measured by using a scaled-down model that represents the hill. VariOllS angles of 10°, 30°, 50° and 70° are simulated in wind tunnel. The result from testing and the result calculated from MS1553:2002 are compared and it generally shows the similar pattern. From the result it proves that the steeper slope of the hill can cause the increase of wind speed velocity and the turbulence flow occur at the top ofthe hill. -Author specialized Mohd Fawwaz bin Mohd Fauzi Project paper (Bachelor of Civil Engineering) -- Universiti Malaysia Pahang - 2007 Wind power THE0003587(Local) THE0003588(Local) UMP 080624 20251114204348.0 vtls000029642
