Dear All
when calculating wind pressures for a fence or barriers like hoarding or noise barrier I have been told that the end detail increase in pressure coefficient that applies to the ends and corners (Cp Net) does not apply for corners (changes in direction ) larger than 120 deg or less than...
Thanks for your help Raligt
Yes, that might work for the capping.
For the fence itself, I was looking at using Frictional forces using EN 1991-1-4 clause 5.3 (3) and cluse 7.5
