Compressor Shelter: Velocity of Pressure

This document provides wind load calculations for a compressor shelter structure according to various industry standards and specifications. It calculates wind pressure coefficients and loads in kilonewtons per square meter for different parts of the structure based on its dimensions, location, and orientation relative to the wind direction. Wind loads are provided for three load cases when the wind blows from the south, west, and east at the site.
