Does anyone have a good reference for calculating wind loads on pipe racks. It will depend on the sizes of pipes on the rack.
 
Most refinery corporations have good guidelines for loads on piperacks, i.e. Exxon, Conoco, BP, Murphy etc. Use the specific client's standard for design.
 
This isn't for a refinery. It is for a process plant and the client doesn't have guidelines.
