The document discusses wind load calculations according to ECP standards. It provides the formula for calculating external design wind pressure (Pe) as a function of wind pressure distribution factor (Ce), exposure factor (k), and fundamental wind pressure (q). It then shows wind load calculations for multiple building floors, providing the height (H), exposure factor (k), wind pressure (Pep+Pes), floor weight (O.W.), and forces in the X and Y directions.

Ce = Wind pressure ( or suction ) distribution factor H = Height of floor from ground level ( m. ) k = Exposure factor ( according to height from ground level ) q = Fundamental wind pressure ( kg. / m.2 ) ( according to geographical location of building ) Lx = Building length in X-direction in plan ( m. ) Ly = Building length in Y-direction in plan ( m. ) O.W. = Own weight of floor ( ton )
q= 70 kg. / m.2 Cep = 0.8 Ces = 0.5
