The design of modern high-rise and unique structures requires an accurate determination of the loads acting on the object. One of the most important types is wind load. The impact of wind on an object leads to the emergence of a large number of various phenomena: from disruption of the conditions for a person’s comfortable stay in recreational areas near the building to the occurrence of vibration amplitudes of the object’s floors. To correctly determine the parameters of wind influence in general and wind loads in particular, it is necessary to conduct complex studies using various methods and models. The paper describes the main approaches to conducting aerodynamic studies of high-rise and unique structures. It describes the resulting characteristics and provisions that ensure the possibility of transferring model data to full-scale objects. Particular attention is paid to the description of studies conducted to determine the dynamic response of the structure. Conducting such studies requires using aeroelastic models that reproduce not only the geometric properties of the object but also the distribution of masses and rigidities.
