wind surveyor
An engineering consultant that assesses and diagrams site wind conditions affecting a building's design.
Engineering consultants who assess and diagram wind conditions on a building site which will affect the building's structural and design requirements.
The assessment concerns wind at the building site and its consequences for structural and design requirements. It describes conditions the design must accommodate, rather than supplying a structural member or protective device.
Structural engineering designs the framework and calculates the loads it must withstand. Wind surveying supplies the focused assessment of wind conditions relevant to that work.
