Review on Wind Load Performance Evaluation of High-Rise Buildings (G+27) With Different Plan Shapes Using (Bim Software) Autodesk Revit Plug-In with Robot Structural Software

Wind-induced effects significantly influence the structural design, serviceability, and aerodynamic performance of tall buildings. Over the past two decades, advancements in aerodynamic shaping, façade engineering, and BIM–FEM workflows have transformed high-rise structural design practices. This review paper critically evaluates fifteen influential studies published between 2001 and 2025, covering four major domains: (i) aerodynamic form optimization, (ii) wind pressure and façade performance, (iii) dynamic wind response and mitigation strategies, and (iv) BIM-integrated structural analysis workflows. Findings indicate that early-stage geometric optimization, corner modifications, and modern aerodynamic treatments can reduce wind excitation by 30–60%. Additionally, advanced modelling platforms such as Autodesk Revit and Robot Structural Analysis improve accuracy, reduce modelling time, and enable iterative optimization. However, gaps still exist in coupling aerodynamic treatments with structural optimization, façade–structure interaction modelling, and AI-driven wind-response prediction. This review identifies these gaps and proposes a structured methodology for future research on combined aerodynamic–structural design using BIM and computational tools.
