WIND LOAD FROM LEVEL TO HEIGHT 24.86 M (ROOF FLOOR LEVEL)
BS 6399‐2:1997 was a technical revision of CP3: Chapter V: Part 2 (now
Withdrawn) which incorporated the considerable advances made and experience
Gained in wind engineering since that time. The design wind load is assessed as per
BS: 6399: Part 2:1997, by standard method.
Basic wind speed (Vg) = 45 m/sec
(3 sec gust)
(As per the Dubai Municipality)
The basic 3 sec wind speed is converted to mean hourly wind speed.

Basic wind speed = 45 m/sec
(3 sec gust)
Considering a Distance of 10 km from Sea (Country)
Terrain Building factor at 24.86 m height (Roof top Level) (Sb)
(Interpolation) =1.92
Hourly Wind Speed (Vb) =23.4 m/s
