Wind pressure distribution was investigated on a multiple hyperbolic paraboloid (HP) shell roof building by model test in the wind tunnel. The roof of the model was a grouping of four similar HP shells in a ‘normal’ array forming a square in plan. Wind tunnel experiments were carried out; wind pressure distribution and the contours of wind pressure on shell roof and walls were determined for various wind directions. The average suctions on roof were computed and compared with those on a single HP shell roof and on a multiple HP shell roof having a ‘sawtooth’ array. The highest point suction encountered was −4·12 q whilst the maximum average suction on the roof was −0·61 q.
