2) When the width of the windward and crosswind side of the structure varies along the height in beeline or approach beeline, while the mass varies along the height continuous and regularly, influence coefficient of the ripple shown in Table 7.4.4-1 shall be multiplied by compensation factor B and v again. B shall be the ratio between the width Bz at height z and the bottom width Bo of the structures windward; may be determined by Table 7.4.4-2.
