This may be cantilever type slab or supported one. While designing various structural elements and cladding units of buildings for wind loads, values of wind pressure coefficients are obtained from relevant code of practice where in the values are available for buildings with plane cladding only. Very limited information is available regarding wind pressure on canopies in codes of practice on wind loads including Indian Standard Code of Practice. Present paper describes the results of the wind tunnel study carried out on models of gable roof buildings with canopies. Wind pressure coefficients are calculated from the measured values of mean pressures on wall and roof surfaces and compared with those for building without canopy in order to observe the influence of canopy on wind pressure distribution.

Wind forces are sometimes so high that it causes failures of structures. Therefore, buildings and other structures are designed for wind loads to be able to sustain wind forces during the lifetime. The wind load on a building shall be calculated for (i) the building as a whole, (ii) individual structural elements as roofs and walls, and (iii) individual cladding units including glazing and their fixings [1]. The wind load or force on a structure is determined as F = A× P (1) where, F = wind force and P = wind pressure acting uniformly on area A . The wind pressure, ( P ) is related to velocity of flow, ( V ) as
