WIND LOAD COMPUTATIONS

MAIN WIND FORCE RESISTING SYSTEM (Table 207B.2-1)

COMPONENTS AND CLADDING (Table 207E.4-1)

Structure: MUNICIPAL BUILDING

STEP 1: Risk Category of Building or Other Structure

➢ Occupancy Category: I - Essential Facilities (Table 103.1)

STEP 2: Basic Wind Speed, V:

Province: Batangas

V = 270 kph (Figure 207.5-1C):

STEP 3: Wind Load Parameters

a. Wind directionality factor, Kd (Section 207A.6)

Kd = 0.85 (Table 207A.6-1)

b. Exposure Category:

Surface Roughness B: Urban and suburban areas, wooded areas, or other terrain

with numerous closely spaced obstructions having the size of single-family

dwellings or larger.

Exposure: B (Section 207A.7)

 Plan Elevation

c. Topographic Factor, Kzt (Section 207A.8)

Kzt = 1.0 (Table 207A.8-1)

d. Gust Effect Factor,G

Rigid Building

Gf = 0.85 (Section 207A.9)

*The gust-effect factor for a rigid building or other structure in permitted to be

taken a 0.85.

e. Enclosure Classification (Section 207A.10)

Ao – total area of openings in a wall that receives positive external pressure

Ag – total gross area of that wall in which Ao is identified

Ao > 0.8Ag

Ag = (16) (30) = 480 m2 Ao = m2

154.7𝑚2
Percentage Open = 480𝑚2

STEP 6: External Pressure Coefficient, Cp or CN for MWFRS

STEP 6: External Pressure Coefficient, GCp for C&C

Hip Roof

L = 24m h/L = 0.708

B = 21m Roof Angle = 14.03624°

h = 17m

L/B = 1.4286

where:

L = horizontal dimension of a building measured parallel to the wind direction

B = horizontal dimension of a building measured normal to wind direction

h = mean roof height of a building
