Abstract

A numerical method based on Computational Fluid Dynamics is applied to study the relationship between driving rain and building envelope pathology (surface disfigurement) for a low-rise office building. It will be shown that the disfigurement patterns that are caused by driving rain impingement can be adequately indicated by the numerical method.
