Wind Load Circular BS6399

The document provides steps to calculate wind load on a structure according to BS 6399-1:1995 based on site conditions and structure dimensions. It calculates the effective wind speed considering factors like terrain type, altitude, and building height. It then uses the effective wind speed and standard pressure coefficients to determine the external surface pressure at different angles around the structure. The summary would change based on adjusting the site conditions, structure height, or terrain category.
