1. Although straight wind speeds govern, because the potential for a tornado strike is
high, it is recommended that facilities be designed for tornado missiles using the
missile speeds for the relevant performance category. APC may not be considered.
2. Tornado speed includes rotational and translational effects
3. For non-NNSA sites tornado wind speeds need to be generated by sites from
tornado hazard curves utilizing LLNL methodology (Reference 3-14).
