ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF WIND LOADING

PART 2: DESIGN WIND LOAD
2
FACTOR INFLUENCE WIND LOADS
Basically all codes and standards included factor to
calculate the wind pressure on building.
The basic factor to calculate wind pressure to building
are depending on the buildings geographic location,
elevation, degree of exposure, relationship to nearby
structures, building height, size and shape.
There are well known as:
1.Type of terrain ground 5.Height above
2.Wind direction factor 6.Hill shape factor
3.Shielding factor 7.Aerodynamic factor
4.Dynamic Response Factor

AN OVERVIEW OF DESIGN CODES

MODIFICATION ON FACTOR
From modification factors that have been highlighted
before, there are three major concern why the factor
are included:
1. Wind climate
2. Topography Condition (e.g. Hill Slope)
3. Geometry/Shape of Building
Only factor deal with climate different from one country to another
country. Other factor are almost same
5
TERRAIN HEIGHT MULTIPLIER
From the various codes of practice, the modification factor that
deal with climate is terrain height multiplier.
It is known and symbol as shown as below:

BASIC WIND SPEED (VS)
Definition: Maximum wind speed will occur one in
a recurrent interval year (XT)
X = wind speed , T =Year
Always T is taken as 50 year and 100 year
Vs is measured at 10 m height from ground level
Vs is use as a reference wind that will be consider
in design load to structure

DESIGN WIND PRESSURE
According to MS 1553:2002
p = (0.5ρair) Vdes2(Cfig)(Cdyn) in Pa …(2)
where Vdes=Vsit x I
and Vsit = Vs(Md)(Mz,cat)(Ms)(Mh)
I = important factor (Table 3.2 pg 21)
Vs = Basic Wind Speed ( Table 3.1 pg 19 or map Fig 3.1 pg 20)
Md = Direction Multiplier (Md = 1)
Mz,cat = Terrain Height Multiplier ( Table 4.1 pg 23)
Ms = Shielding Multiplier (Table 4.3 pg 25)
Mh = Hill shape Multiplier ( Equations either a), b) or c) )

Terrain Height Multiplier (Mz, cat)
Definition: multiplier than giving wind speed at variation of height
base on wind speed at reference (Vs, 10m) for different terrain
category.

Design Wind Pressure, P
p = 0.613(Vs)2(Mz,cat)2(Cpe - Cpi) for structural
system
p = 0.613(Vs)2(Mz,cat)2(CpeKl - Cpi) for cladding

each surface and show in sketch
diagram.
b) If the signboard is made of
cladding element, find the maximum
