ISO 4354:1997 PDF

This International Standard describes the actions of wind on structures and specifies methods for calculating characteristic values of wind loads for use in designing buildings, towers, chimneys, bridges and other structures, as well as their components and appendages. The loads are suitable for use in conjunction with ISO 2394 and other International Standards concerned with wind loads.

Structures of an unusual nature, size or complexity (e.g. suspension bridges and guyed masts) may require special engineering study; some guidance is given on the limitations of this International Standard in these cases.
