Wind Load Guide for Engineers

The document summarizes the process for calculating wind load on a structure using the force/static coefficient method according to IS 875-2015. It provides the location details and wind speed, lists the various factors to calculate design wind speed and pressure, and shows the calculations to determine wind load on each floor of a sample building. Dimensional details of the building are given along with charts used to determine height and terrain exposure factors. The results of wind load calculation for each floor are presented in tabular format.

Wind Load Calculation (Force/Static Coefficient Method) As per IS 875-2015

Location of Project Kathmandu


Wind Speed,IS 875 part 3 2015 Annex A (51) Vb = 47 m/s
Risk Coefficient,IS 875 part 3 2015 Table 1 Cl6.3.1 (7) K1 = 1
Upwind Slope (Ɵ), Ɵ < 3 degree
Topography Factor, K3 = 1
Type of structure for deciding, K4 = Public Struc
Factor for Cyclonic Region, K4 = 1.3
Geometry of Building for deciding, (K d ) Triangula or Squre or Rectangular
Kd = 0.9
Tributary Area For deciding, (Ka) >100 sqm
Ka = 0.8
Laod Combination Factor, Kc = 0.9
Terrain Category, IS 875 part 3 2015 (8) = Category-03
Building Dimension along wind direction, (a) = 19.536 m
Building Dimension across wind direction, (b) = 22.2534 m
Height of building above ground, (h) = 10.9728 m
a/b = 0.8779
h/b = 0.4931

Force Coefficient, Cf = 1.05

Formulae:
(a) Design Wind Speed, (Vz)
Vz= Vb x K1 x K2 x K3 x K4
Where,
Vz= Design Wind Speed at height z, in m/s
K1= Probability factor (Risk Coefficient)
K2= terrain roughness and height factor
K3= Topography factor
K4= Importance factor for cyclonic region
(b) Design Wind Pressure, (Pd)

Pz = 0.6 x V2z
Where,
Pz = Wind Pressure a height z, in N/m 2; and
Vz = design wind speed at height z, in m/s;
The design wind pressure can be obtained as,
Pd= Kd x Ka x Kc x Pz
Sr.No.
Where,
Kd= Wind directionality Factor, 1
Ka= area averaging factor, and 2
Kc= Combination factor 3
Note: The value of Pd Shall not be less than (0.7xP z) 4

It means that the value of Kd x Ka x Kc should not less than 0.7


Check:
Kd x Ka x Kc = 0.7
