Wind Barrier

About Wind Barrier

• Speed Reduction: High-quality barriers can reduce wind velocity by 65% to 85% on the leeward (downwind) side.
• Airflow Modification: Unlike solid walls that create turbulence, effective wind barriers are often permeable (porous), allowing some air to pass through to prevent disruptive vortices and suction behind the structure.
• Protection Zone: A barrier typically protects a downwind area extending roughly 10 to 25 times its total height.

• Energy Efficiency: Reduces heat loss in buildings by up to 30% by shielding them from winter chill.
• Environmental Protection: Prevents soil erosion and stabilizes the surface in arid regions.
• Safety: Minimizes the risk of accidents caused by sudden lateral gusts on highways, railways, and bridges.
• Livestock Comfort: Protects animals from cold stress, which can improve weight gain and reproductive success.
