Wind Load Calculation Overview

The document outlines the wind load calculations based on IS: 875 Part 3, with a basic wind speed of 47 m/sec. It details the design wind speed and pressure, resulting in a design wind pressure of 1.325 KN/m2. Additionally, it provides calculations for load on a truss at mid-span and support based on a purlin span of 6.23m.

Wind load (WL)

Wind loading is in accordance with IS: 875 Part 3,

Basic wind speed: 47m/sec.

Basic wind speed, Vb = 47m/sec

Probability factor, K1 = 1.0

Terrain, K2 = 1.05 (Category – 1 & Height 10m)

Topography factor, K3 = 1.0

Important factor, k4 = 1.0

Design wind speed, Vz = Vb k1k2 k3 k4

= 47 x 1.0 x 1.0 x 1.0 x 1.0 = 47.00 m/sec

Design wind pressure, Pz = 0.6 Vz²

= 0.6 x 49.35²

= 1.325 KN/m2

Purlin Span = 6.23m

Overall Coefficient +0.8

Load on truss @ Mid Span = 6.23 x 0.8 = 6.6 kN/m

Load on truss @ Support = (6.23/2) x 0.8 = 3.3 kN/m
