The standard is as outlined:
This standard sets out procedures for determining wind speeds and resulting wind actions to be used in the structural design of structures subjected to wind actions other than those caused by tornadoes.
The Standard covers structures within the following criteria:
a) Buildings and towers less than or equal to 200 m high.
b) Structures with unsupported roof spends of less than 100 m.
c) Offshore structures within 30 km from the nearest coastline.
d) Other structure apart from: offshore structures more than 30km from the nearest coastline, bridges, windfarm structures and power transmission and distribution structures, including supporting towers and poles.
