Determination or placement of air terminal for a structure by using rolling sphere method / Nurul Hasyimah Jusoh

Lightning is a one of the natural events that cannot be predicted when it occurs. When lightning strike any structural buildings or grounded objects can causes miscellaneous damage harm and fatality. In order to protect structure against lightning strikes and reduce the physical damage, properly des...
