There appears to be a discrepancy in wind load calculations—specifically, the gust factor of 0.85 remains different from AASHTO standards. However, the FDOT Structures Design Guidelines (SDG) 2025 now allow the use of AASHTO Article 3.8, which may help align practices. Please verify the full content of Article 3.8 to ensure consistency.

Additionally, the Wind Speed (WS) table under the FDOT SDG 2.4 option needs to be updated to reflect current standards and improve accuracy in design.
