Wind Load Calculation For Tower Body & Accessories For Existing Loading (X-Dir)

This document calculates the wind load on a tower body and accessories in the x-direction for an existing tower. It lists various factors used in the calculation like wind speed, terrain category, and structure class. The table provided shows wind load calculations at different heights on the tower, accounting for exposed areas, solidity ratios, and force coefficients to determine the wind load on the tower body and accessories as well as the total wind load at each height level.
