Wind storms often cause irreparable damage to the buildings which are exposed to it. Along with the earthquakes, wind represents one of the most common environmental load on structures and is relevant for limit state design. Modern wind codes indicate calculation procedures allowing engineers to deal with structural systems, which are susceptible to conduct wind-excited oscillations. In the codes approximate formulas for wind buffeting are specified which relate the dynamic problem to rather abstract parameter functions. The complete theory behind is not visible in order to simplify the applicability of the procedures. This chapter derives the underlying basic relations of the spectral method for wind buffeting and explains the main important applications of it in order to elucidate part of the theoretical background of computations after the new codes. The stochasticity of the wind processes is addressed, and the analysis of analytical as well as measurement based power spectra is outlined. Short MATLAB codes are added to the Appendix 3 which carry out the computation of a single sided auto-spectrum from a statistically stationary, discrete stochastic process. Two examples are presented.}, language = {en} } @book{MeskourisButenwegHinzenetal.2019, author = {Meskouris, Konstantin and Butenweg, Christoph and Hinzen, Klaus-G. and H{\"o}ffer, R{\"u}diger}, title = {Structural Dynamics with Applications in Earthquake and Wind Engineering}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin, Heidelberg}, isbn = {978-3-662-57550-5}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-662-57550-5}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @book{MeskourisRenaultButenwegetal.2007, author = {Meskouris, Konstantin and Renault, Philippe and Butenweg, Christoph and Hinzen, Klaus-G. and Weber, Bernd}, title = {Gef{\"a}hrdungsabsch{\"a}tzung von Br{\"u}cken in Deutschland unter Erdbebenbelastung.
