Wind Load Calculation Methodology

The document provides calculations for wind load on a structure based on Eurocode standards. It calculates the basic wind velocity as 20 m/s using location-specific factors. It then calculates the mean wind velocity at a height of 35m as 24.9 m/s using roughness and orographic factors. It also calculates the turbulence intensity as 15.3% and the peak velocity pressure as 0.767 kPa.
