Abstract:
Wind load is one of the important loads influencing the design of a tall structure like pressure vessel and tank. Various major standards and codes has given the procedures and coefficients required for the calculation of wind load. This paper describes a comparison of wind load calculations for all structures like pressure vessel and tank between Indian standard IS 875 part 3 and Australia/New Zealand standard AS/NZ 1170 part 2according to their commonalities and differences. All parameters of wind speed, pressure and force has been discussed.
