    The document outlines the calculation of wind loads on a shade structure according to ASCE-7-05 standards. It provides the basic wind pressure equation and defines the variables for a design wind speed of 40m/s, C exposure factor of 0.57, and I importance factor of 1.0. This results in a basic wind pressure of 0.475 KN/m2. It then lists the net pressure coefficients and calculated wind pressures for various load cases with windward and leeward sides under clear and obstructed wind flow conditions.

    WIND LOAD CALCULATION FOR SHADE:

    The basic wind load as per ASCE-7-05 is given by


    qz = (0.613)(Kz)(Kzt)(Kd)(V^2)(I) Eq-61-5
    V = design wind speed = 40m/s
    Kzt = topographic factor = 1 (can be taken as 1.00) (Cl 6.5.7.2)
    Kd = Directionality factor ( 0.85 as per table 6-4)
    Kz = Exposure factor = 0.57 for “C” for ht: 3.15 m (Table 6-3)
    I = Importance factor =1.0
    qz = (0.613)(0.57)(1)(0.85)(40^2)(1.0) = 0.475 KN/m²
    As per ASCE 7-5, the wind loads on open structures can be calculated ,

    The basic wind pressure F = qzGCn (Eq 6-26)


    Gust factor, G = 0.85 for rigid structures.
    Cn = Net pressure coefficient as per Fig: 6-18B
    FOR ROOF SLOPE 30 °
    Load Case: 01 Case:A –Clear Wind flow, Wind 0
    Suction on the wind ward side = qzGCnet =0.475x 0.85 x 1.3 = 0.524 KN/m² (Pressure)
    Suction on the lee ward side = qzGCnet =0.475x 0.85 x 0.3 = 0.121 KN/m² (Pressure)
    Load Case: 02 Case:B –Clear Wind flow, Wind 0
    Suction on the wind ward side = qzGCnet =0.475x 0.85 x -0.1 = -0.04 KN/m² (Suction)
    Suction on the lee ward side = qzGCnet =0.475x 0.85 x -0.9 = -0.363 KN/m² (Suction)
    Load Case: 03 Case:A –Obstructed wind flow, Wind 0
    Suction on the wind ward side = qzGCnet =0.475x 0.85 x -0.7 = -0.282 KN/m² (Suction)
    Suction on the lee ward side = qzGCnet =0.475x 0.85 x -0.7 = -0.282 KN/m² (Suction)
    Load Case: 04 Case:B – Obstructed wind flow, Wind 0
    Suction on the wind ward side = qzGCnet =0.475x 0.85 x -0.1 = -0.04 KN/m² (Suction)
    Suction on the lee ward side = qzGCnet =0.475x 0.85 x -1.1 = -0.444 KN/m² (Suction)
