Design Wind Speed Calculator
Posted by Dinesh onThis calculator calculates the design wind speed at any height using probability factor, height factor, topography factor, cyclonic region factor values.
Design Wind speed is the wind speed at any height taken for the design of high raise (>10m) buildings, for the wind load calculation. Though Wind speed vary for innumerable reasons and vary from place to place and height.
Calculate Design Wind Speed at Any Height
Formula:
Vz = Vb × k1 × k2 × k3 × k4
Where,k1 = probability factor (risk coefficient)
k2 = terrain roughness and height factor
k3 = topography factor
k4 = importance factor for the cyclonic region
Vz = design wind speed
