A large building shaped like a box is 60 m high with a face that is 75 m wide. A strong wind blows directly at the face of the building, exerting a pressure of 160 Upper N divided by m squared at the ground and increasing with height according to P(y)equals160plus2y, where y is the height above the ground. Calculate the total force on the building, which is a measure of the resistance that must be included in the design of the building.

The total force on the building, which is a measure of the resistance that must be included in the design of the building is 990 KN

Explanation:

Total force = total pressure × Area of that face of the building

Taking an elemental part of the wall

Force on that part, dF = Pressure of that part × Area on that part = (160 + 2y)(75dy)

dF = 12000 dy + 150y dy

dF = (12000 + 150y) dy

Integrating both sides

∫dF = ∫(12000 + 150y) dy

Integrating the left hand side from 0 to F and the right hand side from 0 to 60 m

F = 12000y + 75y² = 12000(60) + 75(60²) = 990000 N = 990 KN.
