Detailed Wind Load Design(Method 2) per ASCE 7-05

All pressures shown are based upon ASD Design, with a Load Factor of 1
Basic Wind Speed(V) = 45.00 m/s Structure Type = Building
Structural Category = II Exposure Category = C
Natural Frequency = N/A Flexible Structure = No
Importance Factor = 1.00 Kd Directional Factor = 0.85
Damping Ratio (beta) = 0.01
Alpha = 9.50 Zg = 274.32 m
At = 0.11 Bt = 1.00
Am = 0.15 Bm = 0.65
Cc = 0.20 l = 152.40 m
Epsilon = 0.20 Zmin = 4.57 m
Slope of Roof = 1.77 : 12 Slope of Roof(Theta) = 8.38 Deg
Ht: Mean Roof Ht = 9.30 m Type of Roof = Gabled
RHt: Ridge Ht = 10.00 m Eht: Eave Height = 8.60 m
OH: Roof Overhang at Eave= .00 m Roof Area = 403.00 m^2
Bldg Length Along Ridge = 21.00 m Bldg Width Across Ridge= 19.00 m

Gust Factor Category I Rigid Structures - Simplified Method

Gust1: For Rigid Structures (Nat. Freq.>1 Hz) use 0.85 = 0.85

Gust Factor Category II Rigid Structures - Complete Analysis

Zm: 0.6*Ht = 5.58 m
lzm: Cc*(33/Zm)^0.167 = 0.22
Lzm: l*(Zm/33)^Epsilon = 135.46 m
Q: (1/(1+0.63*((B+Ht)/Lzm)^0.63))^0.5 = 0.90
Gust2: 0.925*((1+1.7*lzm*3.4*Q)/(1+1.7*3.4*lzm)) = 0.87

Gust Factor Summary

Not a Flexible Structure use the Lessor of Gust1 or Gust2 = 0.85

Notes: 1) Min P = qh * (GCPf - (+GCpi))
Notes: 2) Max P = qh * (GCPf - (-GCpi))
Notes: 3) * For Torsional Load Cases, the zones are designated with a "T".
The pressures(Min P & Max P) are 25% of the full design wind
pressures(Ld Case 1T=25%*1(ld case 1),2T=25%*2,3T=25%*3,4T=25%*4).
Exceptions to Torsional Load Cases: One story buildings with mean roof
height<=30 ft(9.1m), buildings with two stories or less framed
with light frame construction, and buildings two stories or
less designed with flexible diaphragms need not be designed
for the Torsional Load Cases. (Note 5 of Figure 6-10)
