COMPUTATION FOR DESIGN WIND PRESSURE As per UBC 1997


Building Dimensions:
H= 18 m Height of the structure
P= Ce x Cq x qs x Iw Design Wind Pressure

Standard Wind Speeds:


V= 130 Km/h
Basic wind speed
V= 80.7 mph

Wind Stagnation Pressure (Table 16F):


qs= 16.4 Psf
Wind Stagnation Pressure
qs = 0.79 KN/m2

Combined Height, Exposure and Gust Coefficient (Table 16G):


EXPOSURE = "B"
H= 59.04 ft. Height of the structure
Ce= 0.95 Combined height, exposure, gust coefficient

Importance Factor (Table 16K) :


Iw= 1.00 Importance Factor
External Surface Pressure (table 16H):
Cq= 1.2 Inward or Outward Elements and components not in areas of discontinuity- Parapet
walls

Net Pressure:
Pnet= Ce x Cq x qs x Iw
Pnet= 0.90 Inward or Outward Kpa

COMPUTATION FOR DESIGN WIND PRESSURE As per ECP

Wind Load Calculations:

Pe= Ce.K.q Design Wind Pressure for Internal Partitions


Basic Wind Pressure (q):
V= 33 m/sec. Wind Speed
r= 1.25 Kg/m3 Wind Density
Ct= 1.2 ` Soil Topography Coefficient-Table(7-2)
Cs= 1.0 Structural Coefficient-Annex (7-A)
q= 0.5 r.V2.Ct.Cs= 0.82 KN/m2 Basic Wind Pressure
Coefficient of Exposure (K):
H= 18 m Total Building Height
K= 1.15 Coefficient of Exposure (A)
Internal Wind Pressure Factor (Ce):
C e= 0.8 Positive Internal Wind Factor
C e= -0.7 Negative Internal Wind Factor
Ci= 0.3 Negative Internal Wind Factor

Thus, Pe= Ce.K.q= 1.03 KN/m2 Positive Internal Wind Factor

Thus, Pe= Ce.K.q= -0.94 KN/m2 Negative Internal Wind Factor
