Wind loads in accordance with ÖNORM 1991-1-4 for individual locations are calculated on the basis of data from our measurement network, extreme value analyses and meteorological expertise. For inquiries with many locations in complex terrain, we offer wind loads based on micro-scale wind field calculations with a CFD model.
Ice loads are determined on the basis of meteorological expertise and measurement data or additionally by means of ice load modeling. Depending on the customer's requirements, total ice loads or the various icing classes according to ISO 12494 are specified.
Snow loads for locations that are not covered by the current snow load standard (ÖNORM B 1991-1-3) are specified based on measurements and meteorological expertise.
