Wind load Calculation
Wind load is calculated as per BS 6399-Part 2 code of practice for wind loads
Building type Factor Kb = 1 (Ref: Table 1)
Maximum Height of the structure ~ 120 m
Dynamic augmentation factor < 0.1 (Ref:Fig 3)
Building is not dynamic,BS6399-part2 is applicable for this structure and Standard method
is used to calculate wind pressure

Basic wind speed = 45 m/sec

(3-Sec gust wind speed 10m above ground level)
Equivalent hourly mean speed @ open level ground
Appropriate to the geographical conditions Vb = 30 m/sec
Pages from Dubai Wind code is attached for reference
Altitude factor Sa = 1 (Ref: Cl 2.2.2.2)
Direction factor Sd = 1 (Ref: Cl 2.2.2.3)
Seasonal factor Ss = 1 (Ref: Cl 2.2.2.4)
Probability factor Sd = 1 (Ref: Cl 2.2.2.5)
Hence
Site Wind speed Vs = Vb*Sa*Sd*Ss (Ref: Cl 2.2.2)
Site wind Speed Vs = 30 m/sec
Effective height of the structure He = 100 m
Closest distance to sea = 10 kM
Terrain and building factor Sb = 2.12 (Ref: Table 4)

Effective wind Speed Ve = Vs*Sb

= 30*2.12
= 63.6 m/sec
Dynamic wind pressure q = 0.613Ve2 (Ref: Cl 2.1.2)
= 0.613*63.6^2/1000
= 2.5 kN/m2

Wind load Calculation
(I) For Roof X-DIRECTION

B= 22 m A= -2.00
A= b/4 = 5.5 m (B/4) B= -1.40
LENGTH = 2.2 m (B/10) C= -0.70
D= -0.20
UPWARD (Pressure):
ZONE - A = (-2-0.2)*2.5 = 5.50 kN/m2
ZONE - B = (-1.4-0.2)*2.5 = 4.00 kN/m2 COEFFICIENT = +0.2
ZONE - C = (-0.7-0.2)*2.5 = 2.25 kN/m2
ZONE - D = (-0.2-0.2)*2.5 = 1.00 kN/m2
DOWNWARD (Suction):

FOR DOWNWARD, THE ZONE-D IS CONSERVATIVELY

COEFFICIENT = 0.3
CONSIDERED FOR THE WHOLE AREA.
ZONE - D = (-0.2-(0.3))*2.5 = 1.25 kN/m2

(I) For Roof Z-DIRECTION

B= 35 m A= -2.00
A= b/4 = 8.75 m (B/4) B= -1.40
LENGTH = 3.5 m (B/10) C= -0.70
D= -0.20
UPWARD [PRESSURE]:
ZONE - A = (-2-0.2)*2.5 = 5.50 kN/m2
ZONE - B = (-1.4-0.2)*2.5 = 4.00 kN/m2 COEFFICIENT = +0.2
ZONE - C = (-0.7-0.2)*2.5 = 2.25 kN/m2
ZONE - D = (-0.2-0.2)*2.5 = 1.00 kN/m2
DOWNWARD [SUCTION]:

FOR DOWNWARD, THE ZONE-D IS CONSERVATIVELY

COEFFICIENT =0.3
CONSIDERED FOR THE WHOLE AREA.
ZONE - C = (-0.2-(0.3))*2.5 = 1.25 kN/m2
