Wind Loading on Inset Storeys
Wind Loading on Inset Storeys
(OP)
Hi guys,
For those who are not familiar, the current Eurocode, as far as i am aware, does not provide advice on wind load zones for top floors with inset storeys, such as the whole penthouse theme with terraces etc. Does anyone know the current criteria for calculating the wind pressures in such cases?
Thanks.

I don't know off hand of anything and have always just used standard wind loading, even on inset storeys.
