Wind Loading Considerations
This chapter describes wind loading considerations for the WBS-2400/5800X.
Note:
It is recommended to evaluate the static and dynamic load
bearing capabilities for each assembly and installation individually. It
is your responsibility to evaluate the load bearing capabilities of the
structure.
The Wavion WBS-2400/5800weighs approximately 16 lbs, including all mounting
hardware. When the Wavion WBS-2400/5800is mounted on a pole, the sail area of the
WBS-2400/5800is approximately 1 square foot. The Wavion WBS-2400/5800can load a
pole with a maximum load of 3400 Newton in wind conditions of 165mph.
