‘acting on all exposed surfaces. For additional guidance, rafer to ASCE 7.
2.4.2 Where the basio wind speed ie equal to or greater than 100 mph (4S mis), ensure the roof design does
hot use gravel surfacing of any type, which can Become a source of wind-bome debris.
Use FM Approved roof coatings, where needed, to provide additional resistance to exterior fire exposure,
hall, and UV (uitraviolet ray) degradation.
Exception: Pea gravel may be used in these regions where itis required, such as adjacent to fire
‘subdivisions, provided that all gravel remaining atthe end of the instalation is fully embeded and there is
no loose gravel nested on top, This can be accomplished as follows:
2) Apply agoregate into a flood coat of hot bitumen, and allow to cool and harden,
) Push away loose aggregate, apply @ sacond flood coat and push the loose gravel back into the second
flood coat, and allow it to cool and harden.
©} Remove any remaining loose gravel from the site.
2.4.3 Provide emergency generators and fuel supplies adequate to fully power all important equipment vital
to production of faguited for refrigeration of valuable perishable items in hurricane-, tropical cyelone-, or
typhoon-prone areas. Ensure this can provide service forthe extent of the power loss, which historically can
be between 5 and 14 days following hurricanes. Provide protection and fre separation for equipment and

3.1 Background
8.1.1 Wind Pressures
Damage to the structural frame of a bullding seldom cccurs during a windstorm. Yet, a very small breach
in the building envelope can destroy a large area of the interior. For this reason, keeping the bulding envelope
sealed is one of the most effective ways of preventing windstorm damage toa fact
‘This document provides separate calculation methods for wind loads on roofs and walls. Roof design loads
cannot be considered in isolation from the walls. Failure of walls or opening protectives from pressure or
‘windborne debris (where applicable) leads to internal pressurization effecis and can result in direct water
damage to building contents as well as an increase in root design loads. Consequenti, the design of partially
enclosed buildings is NOT recommended.
itis extremely important to recognize that wind blowing over a roof exerts varying upit forces on different
areas of the roof. For simply, the roof can be divided into three areas: (1) comers, (2) perimeter and (8) the
fiekd-oF- roof (area inside comers and perimeter). The roof perimeter and corners are exposed to higher uplift
forces than the field ofthe root. The maximum uplft force occurs atthe comers when the wind blows at an
angle of about 45" tothe roo (roughly along the diagonal). The maximum pit force along the windward root
perimeter occurs when the wind blows at 90° to the perimeter. Actual pressure coefficients for the corners
‘and perimeter vary depending on the building height, parapet height, roof slope, etc.
‘To compensate for these increased pressures, special roof deck and above-dack component fastening is
recommended in the comer and perimeter areas (See D.S. 1-29).
“The following is an explanation of the need for Enhanced of Optimum Designs:
\Wind maps inthis document provide the minimum acceptable wind design criteria. Those forthe United States
are from the American Society of Chil Engineers (ASCE) 7 "Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and
Structures” and are used by most bulding codes in the US. These minimum wind speeds as elsewhere in
the world, provide a basic level of protection to al buildings and have protected most buildings from collapse
land major structural damage.
However, the wind speeds of many hurricanes have exceeded these minimum design wind speeds. This
has and can lead to severely damaged buildings that are not useable for many months after hurricane winds
