1. VELOCITY PRESSURE
Velocity Pressure up to the height of 100 m above grade are shown in below. These values are derived from :
Where :
qz = Velocity pressure evaluated at height z above ground (kN/m2)
Kz = Velocity pressure exposure coefficient , Exposure B (ANSI/ASCE 7-02 Table 6)
Kzt = Topographic factor 1
Kd = Wind directionallty factor 1
V = Basic Wind Speed 40 m/s
I = Importance factor 1 for category III, (ANSI/ASCE 7-15 Table 5)
