Australian Standard AS 4055 requires that all residential buildings be designed and constructed to withstand the wind loads applicable to their specific location and site conditions. A wind classification assessment determines the correct wind class for your site.
The wind class assigned to your site directly affects the structural design of your building, including roof framing, wall bracing, and connection details. Getting the correct wind classification is essential for both building approval and structural safety.
