Basic Wind Speed, Vb 47 m/s Fig. 1 of IS:875(III)
Design wind pressure, Vz = Vb x K1 x K2 x K3 Cl 5.3 of IS:875(III)
where,
K1 = probality factor (risk coefficient), Cl 5.3.1 of IS:875(III)
K2 = terrain, height and structure size factor and Table 1 of IS:875(III)
K3 = topography factor Table 2 of IS:875(III)
