I am writing this letter in reference to the wind speed listed in the structural analysis performed
by CLS group for American Tower Site #412253 referenced above.
The site falls between the 150 mph and 160 mph ultimate wind speed contours for risk
category II building and other structures in the 2017 Florida Building Code. A 157 mph ultimate
wind speed was determined using linear interpolation per the Florida Building Code. In ordertc
analyze the tower in TIA-222-G code, the ultimate wind speed must be converted to basic wind
speed using equation 16-33 in chapter 16 of the 2017,Florida Building Code where VBasic=
Witirnate * Sgrt(0.6). The basic wind speed is found to be 122 mph.
Please contact the undersigned with any questions regarding this report at (919) 466-5147.
Sincerely,
Timothy Kassakatis
