| Research Abstract |
The strong wind damage to structure is extended resulting from complicated influencing factors of wind speeds, roof forms and so on. However, most of factors other than wind speeds are not specified. On the other hand, structural conditions like roof forms are linked with regional climate, for example amount of snow cover. Therefore, we tried to improve the procedure of estimating wind damage to houses considering structural condition of roofs associated with regional climate. It turned out that winter climates are associated with roof forms and the roof forms affect on the extent of damage to houses. We estimated damage rate using the influencing factors and confirmed the estimation accuracy.
