Precedent research on wind induced noise in buildings can hardly be found, so that its physical characteristics and effects on residential amenity still remain uncertain. Authors conducted full-scale measurements on wind noise in four high-rise apartments and discussed on the subjects as follows, 1)relation between Leq of wind noise and mean windspeed, 2)effectiveness of gust factor and wind direction on the relationship between Leq and windspeed, 3) difference in wind noise among rooms and buildings. Also definitions of "Effective Windspeed V_e", "Control Windspeed V_c", and "N-value Equivalent Windspeed V_<N->**" are presented as quantitave parameters to evaluate its effect on amenity.
