This document discusses wind analysis and its importance in structural design. It notes that wind exerts load on buildings and can cause collapse. Various types of windstorms are described, including tornadoes, hurricanes, and cyclonic storms. Examples of structures impacted by wind loads are provided, such as bridges and buildings. The document emphasizes that wind pressure is a key force that can compromise structural stability, especially at the base of walls. It concludes that using wind load design in structures can help reduce building collapses over time.
