WIND AND EARTHQUAKE LOADING:

Wind loads on the MWFRS Wind loads o the C&C

Section 207D: Directional Procedure Section 207F: Wind Tunnel Procedure

Section 207F: Wind Tunnel Procedure

Kzt = (1 + K1 K2 K3)2 (207A.8-1)

K1 = Factor to account for shape of topographic feature

1. The hills, ridges or escarpment is ISOLATED and

100H or 3.2km whichever is less

2. Hill, ridge or escarpment PROTRUDES above the height of

3. The Structure is located in the upper one-half of a hill or ridge

Check the CRITERIA if we need to consider the WIND SPEED-UP

1. ISOLATED with the 100H or 3.20km upwind √

2. PROTRUDES above by a factor of 2 or more √

SPEED-UP VELOCITY PRESSURE
