WIND LOAD AS PER ASCE 7-05 (WL)

- Basic wind speed …………………….…………… 130 km/h = 36 m/s.

- Height roof max ……………………………………….… 9 m = 30 ft.
- Exposure C
- Importance factor Iw=1.0 (see table 6-1 category II)
- Velocity pressure gh - (6.5.10)

qh = 0.613 Kz Kzt Kd V2 I (N/m2 – V in m/s)

- Kz = 0.98 (table 6-3 exposure C and height 30 ft)

- Kzt = 1.0 (see 6.5.7.2)
- Kd = 0.85 (table 6-4)

qh = 0.613*0.98*1.0*0.85*362*1.0 = 661.8 N/m2 = 67 kg/m2

Design wind pressure as per ASCE 7-05 ch. 6.5.12.2.2

P = qh* [(GCpf) - (GCpi)] (N/m2)

ROOF LOAD

GCpf,windward = -0.69 external pressure coefficient as per Figure 6-10 for

slope of 5º and zone 2
GCpf,leeward = -0.37 external pressure coefficient as per Figure 6-10 for
slope of 5º and zone 3

WALL LOAD

GCpf,windward = 0.40 external pressure coefficient as per Figure 6-10 for

slope of 5º and zone 1
GCpf,leeward = -0.29 external pressure coefficient as per Figure 6-10 for
slope of 5º and zone 4
GCpf,side walls = -0.45 external pressure coefficient as per Figure 6-10 for
surface 5 and 6

GCpi = ±0.18 internal pressure coefficient as per Figure 6-5

 ROOF WIND PRESSURE

P1 = 67 * (-0.69 - 0.18) = -60 kg/m2 - windward

P2 = 67 * (-0.37 - 0.18) = -38 kg/m2 - leeward

WALLS WIND PRESSURE

P1 = 67 * (0.4 + 0.18) = 40 kg/m2 - windward

P2 = 67 * (-0.29 - 0.18) = - 32.4 kg/m2 - leeward
P3 = 67* (-0.45 - 0.18) = - 44 kg/m2 – side walls outward
