Wind pressure is the principal force tending to
disturb the structure stability of isolated walls
greatest stress produced is at the bottom of a
wall where the wind exerts the greatest turning
moment.
Equating the resisting moment of the wall to the
moment due to wind pressure.
Unsymmetrical walls can be divided into two
separate and each block tested for structural
stability as an independent unit.
