Abstract
The criterion for wind environment assessment proposed by Wind Engineering Institute Co., Ltd. has often been used for the wind environment assessments around high-rise buildings. This criterion is based on the relation between the mean wind speeds at cumulative frequencies of 55% and 95% measured by 3 cup anemometers and the surrounding terrain condition. The relation between this criterion and the human sensation for wind strength hadn’t been clarified. In our previous research, we investigated the relation between the mean wind speed at a cumulative frequency of 95% and the cumulative frequency of the human sensation for wind strength. In order to use this relation for the actual investigation of wind environment, it should
be presented easier for a general public to understand. In this paper, we discuss the relation between this criterion and the percentage of people dissatisfied for wind strength. In addition, this paper shows the influence of a temperature on the percentage of people dissatisfied for wind strength and the relation between the percentage of people dissatisfied and the danger of pedestrian blown down.
