Fence wind load — Nice
Site qb and sk for Nice (France) per the national annex of EN 1991-1-3 + EN 1991-1-4. The calculator below is pre-set to the city's mapped zone — adjust if your install site falls into a different terrain category (coastal first-line, alpine valley, urban shielded). Output is a guidance envelope; permit-level documentation requires a site-specific structural calc.
Côte d'Azur — Mediterranean low snow, moderate wind.
EN 1991 national annexes cover EU + EEA. For sites outside Europe — ASCE 7-22 (US), AS/NZS 1170 (AU/NZ), NBCC (CA), GB 50009 (CN), TS 498 (TR), SP 20.13330 (RU) — contact our engineering team.
