- Abstract
-
Wind is one of the main factors influencing people's sense of comfort in urban areas. Therefore, a wind climate should be aimed at that is assessed as positive and excludes hazards. This wind climate is called "wind comfort".This standard describes various methods and procedures for determining and evaluating the wind climate in built-up areas, which establish a connection between the wind climate and possible uses and can therefore serve as a guide for an evaluation. The standard is aimed at urban planners, architects, landscape architects, engineering firms, independent consultants, project developers, and public authorities.
