Wind Load Calculation 29-08-2018

This document provides details for calculating wind loads on a 20.02m long structure with a roof slope of 15 degrees. It specifies parameters such as basic wind velocity, building type factor, effective height, dynamic pressure, and wind speed adjustment factors. It then calculates the external pressure coefficient, internal pressure coefficient, dynamic roof pressure, and resulting net wind pressures on the roof for different wind directions and zones. The maximum net suction pressure is found to be -1.77 kN/m2.

WIND LOAD CALCULATION

Total Length - L - 20.02m

Spacing - S - 1.82m

Bay Width - B - 13.20m

Height - H - 1.5m

Roof Slope (e) - α - 15°

Basic wind velocity as per DM

- Vb - 35m/s

Building type factor Kb

Building Type Factor Kb

Type of Building = Welded => Kb = 8

Effective Height = Reference Height = He = 1.5m

Dynamic Pressure = qs = 0.613 Ve2

Effective Wind Speed = Ve = Vs x Sb

Site Wind Speed = Vs = Vb x Sa x Sd x Ss x Sp

From BS 6399 – 2 Section 2.2.2.2

Site Altitude above sea level = Δs = 50m

Altitude Factor = Sa = 1 + 0.001 Δs = 1.05

From BS 6399 – 2 Section 2.2.2.3

Direction Factor = Sd = 1 (For Unknown Wind Direction)

From BS 6399 – 2 Section 2.2.2.4

Seasonal Factor = Ss = 1

From BS 6399 – 2 Section 2.2.2.5

Probability Factor = Sp = 1

Vs = Vb x Sa x Sd x Ss x Sp

Vs = 35 x 1.05 x 1 x 1 x 1 = 36.75m/s

From BS 6399 – 2 Section 2.2.3.3‐Table 4

Terrain & Building Factor = Sb = 1.58

Effective Wind Speed = Ve = Vs x Sb

Ve = 31.5 x 1.58 = 58.06m/s
