The team at WSP Research covers all disciplines required for full-scale and model studies of wind and air flows, including, acoustics, instrumentation technology, aerodynamics, fluid mechanics, vibration and structural dynamics, and wind tunnel testing.

These services are highly valued for a wide range of applications, including:

• Wind tunnel testing of buildings, structures and topography at model scale
• Measuring the wind response of buildings and structures
• Design of wind sensitive structures such as lighting poles, cantilever gantries etc.
• Wind effects on building occupants, pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles
• Determining design wind speeds, especially where the topography is complex
• Air pollution
• Full-scale testing of wind response of structures and components
• Product design and evaluation involving aerodynamics/airflow
• On-site wind speed measurements
• Wind energy
• Wind generated noise and vibrations
• Wind-blown snow accumulation around buildings
