eng.wind-load Calculator
Calculates wind pressure and design wind force on a building or structure from wind speed, exposure category, and shape factor. Design wind speed combines a 50-year return period base speed with exposure, topography, and height factors from ASCE 7.
Inputs
Wind Speed
Rate of movement. 1 m/s = 3.6 km/h = 2.237 mph.
Area
Two-dimensional surface extent (m²). For complex shapes, break into simpler sub-shapes and sum.
