  • Abstract:
  • Curved roof structures are widely used for their aesthetic appeal and structural efficiency but are highly susceptible to wind-induced forces. This study numerically analyzes wind load effects on curved roof structures, focusing on medium soil conditions and wind speeds across Delhi, Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, and Port Blair. Using STAAD Pro, key parameters such as base shear, overturning moment, and maximum displacement were evaluated under varying wind scenarios. Findings reveal a direct correlation between wind intensity and structural demand, with higher wind speeds leading to increased base shear, overturning moments, and displacements. Despite these effects, all structural responses remained within permissible limits, ensuring operational safety. Design recommendations emphasize reinforcements and optimized stiffness in high-wind regions to enhance performance. This study highlights the importance of site-specific wind load considerations in curved roof structure design, providing insights for safer, more resilient architectural solutions.
