The key takeaways are that the Durst curve from ASCE7-05 can be used to convert mean hourly wind speeds to other time periods such as 10 minutes by entering the gust duration and reading the factor given by the graph.

You convert mean hourly wind speed to other time periods such as 10 minutes by using the Durst curve from ASCE7-05. The curve relates mean hourly wind speed to shorter duration speeds based on gust duration.

To convert mean hourly wind speed to a 10 minute wind speed using the Durst curve, you enter the gust duration of 10 minutes x 60 seconds = 600 seconds into the curve and read the factor given by the graph. For a 10 minute conversion, the factor given is 1.065.

a. Convert from mean hourly to other means

Durst curve from ASCE7-05

For example to covert a mean hourly wind speed to V to 10 minute. Enter Gust duration of
10x60=600 sec and read the graph. It gives 1.065.
