This paper provides a further insight of galloping analysis of slender structures through a development of a transverse galloping analysis model. The well-known galloping theory of Glauert-Den Hartog is generalized. The role of mode shape, wind profile and structural parameters will be discussed. An application of the proposed theory for the famous sculptural structure “Endless column” shows drawbacks of the common galloping analysis. Critical aspects in engineering applications will be also highlighted.
