Weather Mitigation Structures for Buidling Edges
FY 2018-19 · 2018-09-10
Summary
Wind speeds in Toronto limit the utility of outdoor venues during Fall and Spring seasons by discouraging programs that require weather mitigated spaces (e.g. patios, outdoor markets). Structures that can reduce wind speeds by 75% and provide rain cover have the potential to extend the usability of outdoor venues by up to six weeks in Spring and four weeks in Fall. This project will develop a weather mitigation product that is easily deployable, reconfigurable, weather-responsive, and mass-producible to extend the seasonal utility of outdoor venues in Toronto. Its scope will include the construction of a full-scale prototype and verification of its performance via site-collected weather data.

Description

Structures that can reduce wind speeds by 75% and provide rain cover have the potential to extend the usability of outdoor venues by up to six weeks in Spring and four weeks in Fall.

Description (French)
La vitesse du vent à Toronto limite l'utilité des sites extérieurs pendant les saisons d'automne et de printemps en décourageant les programmes nécessitant des espaces tempérés (par exemple, patios, marchés extérieurs). Les structures capables de réduire la vitesse du vent de 75% et de fournir une protection contre la pluie peuvent potentiellement prolonger la convivialité des sites extérieurs jusqu'à six semaines au printemps et quatre semaines à l'automne. Ce projet développera un produit d'atténuation des intempéries facilement déployable, reconfigurable, sensible aux intempéries et pouvant être fabriqué en série afin de prolonger l'utilité saisonnière des sites extérieurs à Toronto. La portée du projet comprendra la construction d'un prototype à grande échelle et la vérification de ses performances à l'aide de données météorologiques collectées sur le site.
