Guideline for Bridge Design Wind Speed in Coastal Region [PDF]
Journal of the Computational Structural Engineering Institute of Korea, 2015 Estimation of wind load on bridges is one of the most important aspects in designing bridges in coastal region. Various design codes and researches have suggested the procedure to estimate design wind speed; however, they do not match one another due to many reasons such as incomplete data set, ignorance of wind environment and so on.
