how can I transform fastest mile speed to 3 second gust speed?
how can I transform fastest mile speed to 3 second gust speed?
(OP)
I design a building out of US and I used ASCE 7-05 for wind loads. As you know it is given some wind maps for US and the wind speeds are 3 second gust wind speed. I know the fastest mile speed of mine, how can I transform this value to 3 second guest wind speed?

Look at the IBC - wind load section, there is a table showing the relation between 3 sec gust and fastest mile speed.

ASCE 7-95 Figure C6-1
V3 = Vfm(V3/V3600)/(Vt /V3600)
