[ q_p(z) = c_e(z) \cdot q_b ]
The calculation of wind loads according to Eurocode 1 (EN 1991-1-4) ) : Found in Section 7 of EN 1991-1-4
Where:
The standard procedure for determining wind actions involves 17 distinct stages, from initial site data collection to final force determination. Excel uses conditional logic to choose Cpe,10cap C
| Cell | Formula | |------|---------| | v_b | =B7 * B9 * B10 | | q_b | =0.5 * B8 * (v_b^2) |
=B4+E3*G3
Where ( A_ref,x ) = projected area perpendicular to wind direction.
$$v_m(z) = c_r(z) \cdot c_o(z) \cdot v_b$$
