Wind Eurocode

This document summarizes wind pressure calculations for a building according to Eurocode 1. It provides the basic wind velocity, roughness factor, terrain factor, mean wind velocity, turbulence intensity, and peak velocity pressure for a building with a height of 28m and depth of 25m. It then lists the pressure and suction coefficients used to calculate wind loads on the upper and bottom zones of the building.
