Abstract: The paper deals with the study of wind loads to the low-rise building roofing standing near a high-rise building. The investigations have been conducted by physical modeling methods in the wind tunnel with a boundary layer of atmosphere of the Donbas National Academy of Civil Engineering and Architecture. Physical modeling in wind tunnels has great opportunities at investigation both planetary boundary layers, including the topography and underlying surface roughness and local flow near a building object, e.g. in municipal conditions. The conducted experimental investigations point out the necessity of careful designing of new and refurbished high-rise buildings development changing wind loads and increasing pull forces on roofs of surrounding low-rise building. The results of the investigations have confirmed importance of study wave effect arising when wind flows a high-rise building.

Keywords: high-rise building, low-rise building, wind tunnel with a boundary layer, wind loads, wave effect in a wind flow.
