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

Not Considering External & Internal Pressure for walls, due to no walls

Only considering Roof Pressures.
