A structural consultancy in Milan used an unverified wind load Excel sheet for a 45m high residential tower. The local building inspector rejected the submission because the sheet assumed ( q_p(z) ) constant for the upper 15m (simplified method misuse). After switching to a Eurocode verified Excel sheet that computed ( q_p ) at every 2m interval, the corrected wind base moment increased by 18% – revealing an under-design of the lateral bracing system. The verified tool passed three independent reviews and saved €40,000 in potential retrofit costs.
