         7.1    Wind Rating
An investigation of this site and the surrounding terrain has been conducted to determine the Wind Classification Design
Speed. The minimum serviceability and maximum design gust wind speeds for this site are 50m/s based on wind speed
calculations (Vh) for use in ultimate limit state design only (in accordance with the limitations as in AS4055 Section 1.2).
