1.0 Wind Load
The wind loads have been calculated based on the parameters established for the standard site conditions. For wind loads design code IS-875
(Part – 3) has been followed.
Basic Design Wind Speed (Vb) 39.00 m/s IS 875 part 3, Fig. 1
Risk Coeff. (k1) 1.00 IS 875 part 3, Section 6.3.1, table 1
Terrain & height factor (k2) 1.00 IS 875 part 3, Section 6.3.2.2, table 2
Topography factor (k3) 1.00 IS 875 part 3, IS 875 part 3, Section 6.3.1
Cyclonic Region (k4) 1.00 IS 875 part 3, IS 875 part 3, Section 6.3.4
Design Wind Speed (Vz) Vb x k1 x k2 x k3 x k4
(Vz) 39.00 m/s
Design Wind Pressure (Pd)
(Pz) 0.6 Vz2
912.60 N/m2
(Pz) 0.913 KN/m2
Wind directionality factor(kd ) 0.90 IS 875 part 3 (2015), Section7.2.1
Area averaging Factor ( ka) 0.90 IS 875 part 3 2015, Section 7.2.2, Table 4
(Pd) = ka x kd x PZ
(Pd) = 739.21 N/m2
(Pd) = 0.739 KN/m2
