Wind Load according to EC1-4
1. Speed: 30m/s, 33m/s (120) , 37m/s (130)
2. Pressure: p = 0.5*p*v^2
= 0.5*1.25*v^2
= 0.5*1.25kg/m3*30*30m/s*m/s
= 60kg/m2
3. Terrain Category: sea, rural, ville,,
4. Cladding = Paroi = WindWall = LoadArea = (no weight, no rigidity).
5. One direction has 2 cases: Suppression and Depression.
EN1991-1-4
EN1991-1-4 = EC1-4 = wind load on structure
Wind load can be defined by:
Wind Pressure on Windwalls (load area/cladding)
Wind as Point load on columns head
 Suppression: Depression:
Zone (A, B, C, D, E)
different zone=pressure differeent
Wind Pressure: We & Wi

Kdc

Kdc=0.15/4*(H/d-1)+0.85
0.85 <= Kdc <= 1
Cpi = pressure coefficient for internal pressure

Suppression:
Depression:
Cpi<=+0.2
Cpi>=-0.3
qp(Z) : peak velocity pressure (cl. 4.5)
 ANF Clause 4.5 (1) NOTE 2 : =1.225 kg/m3

e.g. if vb,0 = 26m/s,

then vb = Cdir * Cseason * vb,0 = 1*1*26m/s = 26m/s
qb = * 1.25 kg/m3 * (26m/s)^2
= * 1.25*N/(m3*m/s2) * 26^2 *(m/s)^2 because: 1kg = 1N/(m/s2)
= * 1.25 * 26^2 N/m2
= 442.5 N/m2
= 44.25 kg/m2
Vb,0 depends on Zone
In Cambodia, depends on Designer:
90km/h, 120km/h, 130km/h..

Terrain: IIIb

Find pressure q at each face!

ANSWER:

q = qp(Ze)*(CsCd*Cpe +- Cpi)*Kdc

qp (Z) = Ce * qb =2.15*42.25 = 90.83kg/m3

qD_S=90.83*(0.85*0.8 0.2)*0.86=37.53kg/m2
qE_S=90.83*(0.85*0.51+0.2)*0.86=49.50kg/m2
Kdc = 0.15/4*(H/d-1)+0.85
=0.15/4*(31/24-1)+0.85=0.86
