Wind Load Calculation - IS 875 (PART-3) : 2015
EXAMPLE -1
A typical calculation of wind pressure for a live project is as follows with
original conditions (No Assumptions made here). [STATIC METHOD]
• Client Name: Mrs. Sujatha devi.
• Project title: Proposed commercial building.
• Location: Rehmath Nagar (Hyderabad)
• Software: STAAD.Pro
Step-1:
Design Wind Velocity: (Vz) (m/s) [Clause 6.3 - Page 5]
Vz = V b × k 1 × k 2 × k 3 × k 4
• Vb = Design Wind Speed at Height z (m/s) [Clause 6.2 - Page 51]
Basic wind speed at 10m height for Rehmath Nagar ANNEX A

V7.663 = 44 × 1 × 0 × 1 × 1 = 0 m/s
Interpolation for 12m to find out the k2 value. FOR EXAMPLE, ONLY

= 0.02
Therefore,
The k2 value.is (1 + x) i.e 1 + 0.02.
k2 Value = 1.020
