To calculate wind load for industrial steel structures and to apply it by using TSD
ANS 1:-
Aim:- To generate manual wind loading in the design report based IS code as per following input which are mentioned in the question
Given data:-
Wind speed-32 m/s^2
Life of structure-50 years
Class of structure=class A
As per iS 875 part 3, clause 5.3.2.2 structure and /or their components as cladding ,glazing,roofing etc having maxmum dimensions( greatest horizontal or vectoral dimension) lesss than 20 m which is considered as class A.
Terrain category =2(From Table 2)
Total length of the building (l) = 18.007 m
Total height of the building (h)=12 m
Total width of the building (w)=18 m
Tools Required
Tekla model
Dimensions
Microsoft Excel worksheet
Procedure
- Firstly open the Tekla software and open the designed model for which wind load has to be applied
- Now take the dimensions of the model such as height ,length,width etc
- External Pressure coefficient (Cp e)
- As per IS 875 part 3 , Table1
For Wind speed-32 m/s^2
K1=1
- As per IS 875 part 3 , Table2
For Terrain 2 category
For height=10 m k2=1
For height=15m k2=1.07
There fore for height =12 m
K2=((15-12)*(1.07-1)/(15.10))-1.07
K2=1.028
- As per IS 875 part 3 , Table5
h/W=12/18=0.67
there fore h/w lies between 0.5 and 1.5
l/w=18.007/18=1.0003
there fore l/W lies between 1 an 1.5
K3
Topography factore k3=1(from clause 6.3.3)
Importance factor k4=1.15(from clause 6.3.4)
- Design wind speed
Vz=Vbk1k2k3k4
Vz=39*1*1.028*1*1.15
Vz=46.1058 m/s
- Design wind pressure
- From Clause 7.2
Pz=Vz2*0.6
=(46.1058)2 *0.6

Roof calculation :
We know that h/W=0.6
External coeffiecient from table 6
Slope = sintheta = opp/hyp=2.813/8.939
Theta=18.34
By using interpolation method
(18.34-10)/(20-10)=(x+1.2)/(-1.4+1.2)
X=-1.36
Similarly
(18.34-10)/(20-10)=(x+.4)/(-.4+1.4)
X=1.24
Therefore EF= -1.36
FG=-1.24

Result:- by doping this we will be able to generate wind load calculations of a model manually
Ans 2:
Aim:- based on the above calculations apply the loads on the model
Tools required
Loads
Load cases
Area load
Properties- direction- load value
Procedure:
- Open the model which was designed last week
- Open the load cases option
- Now go to loads, select area load,global axis and enter the calculated loads to the structure
- Adjust the direction to the global Y for face A and B
- Adjust the direction to the global X for face C and D
- Adjust the direction to global Z for the roof components
- For all the sides we have to apply both +Cpi and -Cpi values
Result:-
With this all the loads can be applied to the structure

Ans 3:-
Aim:- On a sperate model generate wind loading using wind Wizard
Tools used:-
- Manage property sets
- Beams
- Columns
- Construction levels
- Load cases
- Wall panels
- Roof panels
- Wind wizard
- Frames
PROCEDURE:
- open a new file
- Create construction levels with required height
- Go to manage property sets and create new concrete columns steel columns and beams
- Select the base and add the concrete columns
- Now add the steel beams and add concrete columns
- Now add steel beams from ground floor to First floor
- Add dead and live load on the structure
- Create frames for the structure
- Select the side view and construct the rafter using steel beams option
- Now design wall and roof panels for the structure
- Click on wind wizard option
- Select consider topography and consider cyclonic effect options
And click on next
- Next give the dimensions and enter the wind speed value as 39 m/s and select all general building and industrial structure
- Selecr the terrain category and enter the fetch a distance value as 10 m and click on next
- The result will be appeared click on next
- At last click on finish option
