NE . AS/NZS 1170.2 vs AS 4055 · AS/NZS 1170.2 is the full wind · AS/NZS 1170.2 is taught in the second semester subject Infrastructure Design Project . AS 4055 is a reduced simplified version for housing that is used in conjunction with AS 1684 · AS 4055 is essentially used to determine a site wind classification, which is used in AS 1684 · Site wind classification N1 to N6 is for non-cyclonic regions · Site wind classification C1 to C4 is for cyclonic regions Table 2.1(A) - Design gust wind speed (Vt) for non-cyclonic Regions A and B Site wind classification N1 NZ N3 32 N4 39 N5 N6 Design gust wind speed (Vt) at height (h) m/s Serviceability limit state (Vi .: ) 26 26 47 55 Ultimate limit state (Vì,a) 34 40 50 61 74 86 Table 2.1(B) - Design gust wind speed (Va) for cyclonic Regions C and D Design gust wind speed (Vh) at height (h) m/s Site wind classification Serviceability limit state (V.s) Ultimate limit state (Vha) C1 32 50 C2 39 61 47 74 86 C4 55 NOTE Section 3 may present different pressures for the same wind speed depending on classification.
