Wind Tunnel Testing Lokhandwala Minerva, India

Windtech is proud to be one of the partners engaged in creating the tallest skyscraper in India. The Minerva, with its 91 storeys, stands about 1000 feet tall. The unique feature of this project is the narrow structure of this site, which has resulted in such a high aspect ratio.

Windtech’s wind tunnel testing has helped with cost optimisation and in the designing of the building. We performed a wind tunnel study of the wind actions on the structure including building motion. Our experts conducted the tests including the effect of the load transfer between the two main linked substructures that form this tower, using the most rigorous approach which was developed at Windtech and published in 2007.

We have been in this industry since 1991. Our more than three decades of experience in wind engineering and similarly related services have helped in the successful completion of over 3,000 projects. We have a series of prestigious projects internationally, and we now take pleasure in being a part of the Minerva, India project. We have also rendered our services in many other structural projects across the length and breadth of India, making us highly reputable wind engineering consultants in India.
