Wind load is one of the important loads influencing the design of a tall structure like pressure vessel and tank. Various major standards and codes has given the procedures and coefficients required for the calculation of wind load. This paper describes a comparison of wind load calculations for all structures like pressure vessel and tank between Indian standard IS 875 part 3 and Australia/New Zealand standard AS/NZ 1170 part 2 according to their commonalities and differences. All parameters of wind speed, pressure and force has been discussed.Keywords: Wind code and standard, wind loading, design wind load, pressure vessel, tankCite this Article J. Pandya, G. Acharya, Y.
