The document discusses wind load calculations for determining site wind speed and pressure for structural design. It provides the methodology for calculating the ultimate and service level wind speeds and pressures based on factors like the regional basic wind speed, terrain category, height above ground, and importance level of the structure. Wind speed is modified based on these parameters using adjustment factors provided in tables to get site-specific design wind loads.
