3 Gust Factor 17.2

This document contains calculations to determine the gust factor for wind load on a structure. It provides dimensions of the structure, wind speed data, and calculations using various coefficients and factors to determine the gust factor along two directions of the structure. The gust factor is then used to calculate the along wind load.
