Subject: Wind Load Calculation (SS EN 1991-1-4: 2009)

Basic Value
Basic Wind Velocity Vb = Cdir.Cseason.V0,b
= 20 m/s
Directional Factor Cdir = 1
Season Factor Cseason = 1
Fundamental Value of basic wind Velocity V0,b = 20 m/s

Basic Velocity Pressure


Air density (NA.2.16) ƿ air = 1.194 Kg/m3
Basic Velocity Pressure qb = 1/2 x ƿ air x V0,b
= 238.80 N/m2

Terrain Category (Type 2)


(NA to SS EN 1991-1-4: 2009, Table NA.1) z0 = 0.05 m
zmin = 2.00 m
Height of ground z = 12.05 m

Terrain Roughness
For zmin < z < zmax cr(z) = kr x In(z/zmin)
kr = 0.19x(z0/0.05)0.07
= 0.19

cr(z) = 1.04

Terrain Orography
co(z) = 1.00

Wind Turbulence
(NA to SS EN 1991-1-4: 2009, NA.2.16) k1 = 1.00

When zmin < z < zmax lv(z) = k1 / co(z) x ln(z/z0)


= 0.18

Peak Velocity Pressure

qp(z) = ce(z) x qb

ce(z) = (1+7lv) x cr(z) x c0(z)


= 2.37

Peak Velocity Pressure qp(z) = 0.566 kN/m2
