ting wind-resistant designs that account for local wind patterns.
How do local climate conditions influence wind effects on cavity walls?
Local climate conditions, including typical wind speeds and patterns, can vary significantly from one region to another. These variations can affect how cavity walls should be designed and constructed to withstand wind loads effectively.
What retrofitting options are available for improving the stability of existing cavity walls?
Modern solutions for retrofitting existing cavity walls include adding external bracing, installing additional wall ties, and applying stabilising products that can enhance the overall strength and resistance of the wall against wind pressure.Maintenance Practices for Traditional Cavity Walls
