Wind load is a critical challenge for both PV modules and trackers – with real consequences for project bankability. In this webinar we will examine how a system-level approach to load testing can ...

Many transmission structures are tested to failure at full-scale, leading to an improved understanding of capacity compared to most structures. Typically when extreme wind events occur, the maximum ...

With extreme weather events becoming all too common, and a growing list of PV projects that have been damaged or destroyed by strong winds, ensuring that mounting structures are able to withstand the ...

A new method provides a more realistic description of loads on large-scale wind turbines than was previously possible. A team ...

1055 4:2005 allows the user to determine wind loads for these systems. Peri has managed to achieve more cost effective calculation results through the application of wind technological tests for its ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) reported on Sept. 17 that it has done additional analysis of the wind "loads" that the World Trade Center (WTC) towers were originally ...

AMES, Iowa – Hui Hu picked up a 3-D printed model of a typical wind turbine and began explaining two problems with the big, tall, three-bladed machines. First, said the Iowa State University professor ...

HDR last year agreed to pay $12 million to the design-build construction contractor Archer Western-de Moya Group to settle ...
