Asce-7 98

This document provides input values and results from a wind load analysis on a vessel. The analysis was performed using ASCE-7 98/02/05 wind design codes for an open terrain site with a basic wind speed of 61.12 m/s at an elevation of 12200 mm. Key results include a static gust-effect factor of 0.85, natural frequencies of 33 Hz for operating, empty, and test cases, and a wind force of 10,331.9 lbs (45,956.1 N) on the first structural element.

This is classified as a rigid structure. Static analysis performed.
Sample Calculation for the First Element
The ASCE code performs all calculations in Imperial Units
only. The wind pressure is therefore computed in these units.
Value of [Alpha] and [Zg]:
Exposure Category: C from Table C6-2
Alpha = 9.500 : Zg = 274320.000 mm
Effective Height [z]:
= Centroid Height + Vessel Base Elevation
= 4500.000 + 12200.000 = 16700.000 mm
= 54.790 ft. Imperial Units
Velocity Pressure coefficient evaluated at height z [Kz]:
Because z (54.790 ft.) > 15 ft.
= 2.01 * ( z / Zg ) 2 / Alpha
= 2.01 * ( 54.790/900.000 )2/9.500
= 1.115
Type of Hill: No Hill
Wind Directionality Factor [Kd]:
= 0.95 per [6-6 ASCE-7 98][6-4 ASCE-7 02/05]
As there is No Hill Present: [Kzt]:
K1 = 0, K2 = 0, K3 = 0
Topographical Factor [Kzt]:
= ( 1 + K1 * K2 * K3 )
= ( 1 + 0.000 * 0.000 * 0.000 )

[Cf] 0.869

= 1.0000
Velocity Pressure evaluated at height z, Imperial Units [qz]:
= 0.00256 * Kz * Kzt * Kd * I * Vr(mph)
= 0.00256 * 1.115 * 1.000 * 0.950 * 1.050 * 136.725
= 53.2 psf [2.548 ] kPa
Force on the first element [F]:
= qz * G * Cf * WindArea
= 53.228 * 0.850 * 0.869 * 262.825
