A brief introduction to wind engineering with the main characteristics of the wind structure are provided. Velocity profiles, turbulence and spectra are described along with the effects of upstream exposure. Wind speed and turbulence models for inhomogeneous upstream exposures are presented along with data comparisons from other sources. The basic elements of wind-building interaction in the time-averaged mode for uniform and boundary layer flows are described, external and internal pressures and forces on buildings with emphasis on design significance are discussed.
