Abstract

A study of extreme wind speeds in gusts over different parts of India have been made using autographic wind data for 25 stations equipped with Dines pressure tube anemographs. Maps of India have been prepared for return periods of 2,5, 10, 25,  and 100 years, based on these date. These are expected to provide engineers with wind data of different probabilities which will be helpful in designing structures in different parts of the country.
