Code of Practice for Design Loads (Other than Earthquake) for Buildings and Structures - Part 3: Wind Loads (IS 875: Part 3) + Amendment 2016
IS 875 Part 3: 2015 provides the code of practice for determining wind loads on buildings and structures in India, excluding earthquake loads. It specifies methods to calculate design wind speeds, pressure coefficients, and force coefficients for various building shapes and terrain categories, including provisions for dynamic wind effects such as vortex shedding and flutter. This standard is essential for structural engineers and designers to ensure safety and reliability of buildings against wind forces, particularly in cyclone-prone regions.
