Eurocode 1: Actions on structures - Part 1-4: General actions - Wind actions

(1)  EN 1991-1-4 gives guidance on the determination of natural wind actions for the structural design of building and civil engineering works for each of the loaded areas under consideration. This includes the whole structure or parts of the structure or elements attached to the structure, e. g. components, cladding units and their fixings, safety and noise barriers.
(2)  This Part is applicable to:
   .  Buildings and civil engineering works with heights up to 200 m. See also (11).  
   .  Bridges  having  no  span  greater  than  200 m,  provided  that they satisfy the criteria for dynamic response, see (11) and 8.2.
(3)  This  part  is  intended  to  predict  characteristic  wind actions  on land-based structures, their components and appendages.
(4)  Certain aspects necessary to determine wind actions on a structure are dependent on the location and on the availability and quality of meteorological  data, the type of terrain, etc. These need to be provided in the National Annex and Annex A, through National choice by notes in the text as indicated. Default values and methods are given in the main text, where the National Annex does not provide information.
(5)  Annex A gives illustrations of the terrain categories and provides rules for the effects of orography including  displacement  height,  roughness  change,  influence  of  landscape  and  influence  of neighbouring structures.
(6)  Annex B and C give alternative procedures for calculating the structural factor cscd.
(7)  Annex D gives cscd factors for different types of structures.
(8)  Annex E gives rules for vortex induced response and some guidance on other aeroelastic effects.
(9)  Annex F gives dynamic characteristics of structures with linear behaviour
(10) This part does not give guidance on local thermal effects on the characteristic wind, e.g. strong arctic thermal surface inversion or funnelling or tornadoes.
11) This part does not give guidance on the following aspects:

Evrokod 1: Vplivi na konstrukcije - 1-4. del: Splošni vplivi - Obtežbe vetra

EN 1991-1-4 podaja navodila glede določevanja obtežbe naravnega vetra na projektiranje zgradb in gradbena dela za vsako od obravnavanih področij pod obtežbo. To vključuje celotno konstrukcijo ali dele konstrukcije ali elemente, ki so pritrjeni na konstrukcijo, npr. sestavne dele, fasadne enote in njihovo pritrjevanje, varnost in protihrupne pregrade.
Ta del se uporablja za:
- Zgradbe in civilna gradbena dela na višini do 200 m. Glej tudi točko (11).
- Mostove, pri katerih ni noben lok večji kot 200 m, pod pogojem, da ustrezajo pogojem za dinamični odziv, glej točki (11) in 8.2. Ta del je namenjen napovedovanju značilnosti obtežbe vetra na konstrukcije na kopnem, njihove komponente in dodatke. Določeni vidiki, ki so potrebni za določevanje obtežbe vetra na konstrukcijo, so odvisni od lokacije in od razpoložljivosti ter kvalitete meteoroloških podatkov, vrste zemljišča, itd. Le-te je treba določiti v Nacionalnem dodatku in Dodatku A, s pomočjo nacionalne izbire in z opombami v besedilu, kot je nakazano. Privzete vrednosti in metode so podane v glavnem besedilu, kadar Nacionalni dodatek ne podaja informacij. Dodatek A podaja ilustracije glede kategorije terena in zagotavlja pravila za učinke orografije, vključno z odmikom višine, spremembo grobosti, vplivom krajine in vplivom sosednjih konstrukcij. Dodatka B in C podajata alternativne postopke za izračun faktorja konstrukcije cscd. Dodatek D podaja cscd faktorje za različne tipe konstrukcij. Dodatek E podaja pravila za odziv, ki ga povzroči vrtinec, in nekaj navodil glede drugih aerolastičnih učinkov.
Dodatek F podaja dinamične lastnosti konstrukcij z linearnim obnašanjem. Ta del ne podaja navodil glede lokalnih toplotnih učinkov na značilni veter, t.j. močna arktična temperaturna površinska inverzija ali učinek lijaka ali tornadov.
Ta del ne podaja navodil glede naslednjih vidikov:
- obtežba vetra na rebraste stolpe z nevzporedna mrežasto strukturo,
- obtežba vetra na drogove in dimnike, pritrjene z vrvmi,
- torzionalne tresljaje, npr. visoke zgradbe s centralnim jedrom,
- tresljaje krova mostu zaradi prečne turbulence vetra,
- mostove, ki so podprti s kabli,
- tresljaje, pri katerih je treba upoštevati več kot samo osnoven način.
