Canada's diverse geography and climate impacts our exposure to natural hazards, such as tornadoes and cyclones. This is further aggravated due to aging infrastructure, population growth and climate change. To maintain the safety and prosperity of our communities, it is vital to develop a comprehensive framework to assess and mitigate the impact of extreme climate on the built environment. In this research, novel numerical and large-scale experimental approaches that enable community-level wind performance assessments will be developed. This unique approach considers aerodynamics for progressive failure and the interdependence of cladding, structural system, individual buildings, and neighborhoods. The assessment outcome will inform the next generation of building codes and standards. Thus, enhancing the resiliency of our communities in relation to extreme climate.

加拿大的各种地理和气候影响了我们对龙卷风和气旋等自然危害的暴露。由于基础设施，人口增长和气候变化，这进一步加剧了。为了维持我们社区的安全和繁荣，建立一个综合框架来评估和减轻极端气候对建筑环境的影响至关重要。在这项研究中，将开发出可实现社区级风能评估的新型数值和大规模实验方法。这种独特的方法考虑了空气动力学的进行性失效以及覆层，结构系统，各个建筑物和社区的相互依存关系。评估结果将为下一代建筑法规和标准提供信息。因此，增强了与极端气候有关的社区的弹性。
