WHAT IS WIND ?????
GENERAL TERMS IN WIND CODE 1. WIDTH , w 2. DEPTH , l 3. HEIGHT , h 4. OCEAN CURRENT 5. SOLIDITY RATIO 6. GUST 7. GRADIENT VELOCITY 8 . PRESSURE & SUCTION 9. DESIGN WIND SPEED
Wind speed at 5 to 10 kmph is called breeze. Wind speed at 50 kmph is called strong wind. Wind speed more than 80 kmph is called very strong wind.
Vz = Vb. k1. k2. k3 in m/s V b = Basic wind speed in m/s k 1 = Probability factor (risk coefficient). k 2 = Terrain height and structure size factor. k 3 = Topography factor. DESIGN WIND SPEED V z
DESIGN WIND PRESSURE P z The design wind pressure, Pz = ½ ρ Vz 2 , ρ = Density of Air = 1.225 Kg/m 3 Pz = ½ *1.225*Vz 2 = 0.6Vz 2 Pz = Design wind pressure in N/m 2 Vz = Design Speed in m/s
WIND PRESSURE AND FORCES ON BUILDINGS AND STRUCTURES 1) The building / structure is taken as a whole. 2) Individual structural elements such as roofs and walls. 3) Individual cladding units such as sheeting and glazing including their fixtures.
CLASS OF A BUILDING Class A : Size of the structure is less than 20m Class B : Size of the structure between 20 to 50m Class C : Size of the structure greater than 50m

The effect of topography will be taken as when upwind Slope < 3 deg k3 = 1.0 Slope > 3 deg k3 = 1.0 to 1.36 K3 – TOPOGRAPGHY FACTOR
