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)
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
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
