  1. Hi Shane, thanks for your insight, much appreciated.
  2. Hi All, Just looking for some opinions around wind loading on Temporary Mobile Structures. An example would be a mobile access platform on wheels or a skid etc. The ACBC Standard for Temporary Structures specifies guidance around reduced wind speeds, depending on the wind region and approved installation duration. Unfortunately the standard wasn't written for these types of structures, accordingly there is nothing in the reduced wind speeds to account for the time taken to dismantle the equipment, relocate to a protected area, or secure in accordance with a tie down arrangement. Say for a mobile structure, which may be used year round (for which no wind speed reduction is applicable), would it be appropriate to apply the 1 week reference period to reduce the wind speed? I'm interested to hear some opinions and experiences in this area. Thanks
