Windstorm: Dynamic Pressure at return period 50 years
This dataset provides nationwide windstorm risk maps for Switzerland, showing dynamic pressure values associated with peak wind gusts for a return period of 50 years, along with their associated uncertainties. Published by the Swiss Federal Office for the Environment (BAFU) under the Swiss Confederation, the maps offer a country-wide basis for estimating regional windstorm risk. They do not replace the Dynamic Pressure Reference defined in Standard SIA 261 Annex E, but serve as a complementary resource for assessing wind hazard across Switzerland.”The Windstorm Risk Maps show peak wind gusts and their dynamic pressure and the corresponding uncertainties. The maps provide a country-wide basis for the estimation of the regional windstorm risk, however they do not replace the Dynamic Pressure Reference (Standard SIA 261 Annex E). The windstorm…
