What is Wind Load Calculation Guide BS 6399 about?

This document summarizes the wind load calculation procedure according to BS 6399-2:1997 for a building located in Sri Lanka. Key parameters included the hourly wind speed of 26.2 m/s, an altitude factor of 1.0, a directional factor of 1.0, a seasonal factor of 1.0, and a probability factor of 1.0. Given the effective height was less than 50m and proximity to the sea, the terrain and building factor was 2.0. This resulted in a net wind pressure of 1.9 kN/m^2 and net suction pressure of 1.68 kN/m^2.
