Comparison of input variables required for force estimation formulae of the references considered

ReferenceRequired input variables for force estimationNotes
MLIT 2570 (MLIT, 2011b)h, aa is a function of distance inland and seaward barriers, and can be considered a proxy for Fr (see Section 4.1).
ASCE 7-16 (ASCE, 2016)h, v 
Foster et al. (2017) h, v, b/wb/w = building width/channel width,
where channel width is the distance, orthogonal to flow, between adjacent obstacles either side of the building.
