WIND PRESSURE CALCULATION

City / Town = Hyderabad

Basic Wind Speed, Vb = 44 m/s

Class of Structure = 1

Mean propable design life of strucutre = 50 years

probability factor, k1 = 1.0


(risk coefficient)

Height of structure above ground level, H = 22.5 m

Terrain category of structure = Category 2

Terrain, Height and Structure size factor, k2 = 1.083

Topography factor, k3 = 1.0

Importance factor, k4 = 1.00


(clause 6.3.4)
Design Wind Speed @ z, VZ = 47.65 m/s
( Vz = Vb * k1 * k2 *k3* k4)
Wind Pressure @ z, pz = 1.362 kN/m2
( pz = 0.6 * Vz2 )
0.7* pz = 0.95 kN/m2
Wind Directionality factor, kd = 0.9
(As per Cl : 7.2.1)
Tributary area = 50.00 m2
Area Averaging factor, ka = 1.00
(As per Cl : 7.2.2, Table 4)
Combination factor, kc = 1.0
(As per Cl : 7.3.3.13)
Design Wind Pressure, pd = 1.226 kN/m2
( pd = kd * ka *kc*pz )
The design wind pressure considered for design is
pd = 1.226 kN/m2
