Abstract
This study aimed to increase the structural stability of an existing poultry house design against the effect of climate change.A model of the existing poultry house was created using a computer software MIDAS/Gen and evaluated under standard and projected wind load analysis. A wind speed of 320 kph was used to account for the effect of climate change into the intensity of typhoons. Both analyses were based on the provisions available in NSCP 2010. All the elements of the structures were evaluated at different stresses such as axial stress, shear-y and shear-z stress, bending-y and bending-z the elements whose magnitude of stresses exceeded the allowable stress were considered as failures. the number of failed elements determined under standard and projected wind load analysis was compared. It was observed that after subjecting the model into projected wind loading analysis which has a magnitude of wind pressure of 2.6 times greater compared to the standard, the number of failed elements has increased by 32.87%. Based on this either additional supports or charge in the material dimensions was applied on the elements considered as critical for design modification.
