Textbook Question
Chapter 24, Problem 22P
A wind force distributed against the side of a skyscraper is measured as
Height l, m | 0 | 30 | 60 | 90 | 120 | 150 | 180 | 210 | 240 |
Force, F(l), N/m | 0 | 340 | 1200 | 1600 | 2700 | 3100 | 3200 | 3500 | 3800 |
Compute the net force and the line of action due to this distributed wind.
