Determine the wind region of your installation site
Most of Australia is designated Region A which
indicates a Regional Wind Velocity of 43 m/s with
wind average recurrence of 200 years.
Some areas are designated Region B (52 m/s). Local
authorities will advise if this applies in your area.
Region C areas (64 m/s) are generally referred to as
Cyclonic and are generally limited to northern coastal
areas. Most Region C zones end 100km inland.
Region D (79 m/s) is Australia's most extreme Cyclonic
Region, located between the town of Carnarvon and
Pardoo Station in Western Australia.
