Calculation of wind load on duo-pitch roofs © NGH 2013

Building: xxx

Width of building b = 5,99 m

Length of building l = 17,99 m
Height of building h = 4,50 m (from terrain to ridge)

Overhang facade f = 0,35 m

Overhang gable g = 0,35 m
Roof inclination v = 30 º (from horizontal)
Self-weight roof gk = 0,60 kN/m2 (planar load)

Terrain catagory = II Area with low vegetation such as grass and isolated obstacles
(trees, buildings) with separations of at least 20 obstacle heights

Basic wind speed vo = 24 m/s Other areas in Denmark Roof dimensions

ULS: γG = 0,9 Safety factor for self-weight

γQ = 1,5 Safety factor for wind load

Width steel ties = 40 mm Roof width = 7,72 m

Steel quality = S235

Roof length = 18,69 m

Wind on facade Wind on gable

e/10 = 0,90 m e/10 = 0,60 m
e/4 = 2,25 m e/4 = 1,50 m
e/2 = 4,50 m e/2 = 3,00 m
