HP12-70 Antenna Wind Forces
Wind loading The axial, side and twisting moment forces stated are maximum loads applied to the tower by the antenna at a survival wind speed of 200 km/h (125 mph). They are, in every case, the result of wind from the most critical direction for each parameter. The individual maximums may not occur simultaneously. All forces are referenced to the antenna mounting pipe.
