Research Abstract	Wind load effects on structural main frames due to overall behavior and those on cladding/components due to local pressures are studied based on detailed examination of wind load pass from the building surface to the ground. The contributions of the overall building behavior and local pressures are investigated, especially for monocoque-type structures and long-span roof systems, for which separation of the main frames and secondary members is difficult. Finally, the results are applied for wind resistant design of these types of buildings and structures.
