Wind Pressure Calculation
Resulting Parameters and Coefficients:
Roof Angle, q = 5.71 deg. 1: 10.00
External Pressure Coeff's., GCpf (Fig. 6-10):
(For values, see following wind load tabulations.)
Positive & Negative Internal Pressure Coefficients, GCpi (Figure 6-5):
+GCpi Coef. = 0.00 (positive internal pressure)
-GCpi Coef. = 0.00 (negative internal pressure)
If h < 15 then: Kh = 2.01*(15/zg)^(2/a) (Table 6-3, Case 1b)
If h >= 15 then: Kh = 2.01*(z/zg)^(2/a) (Table 6-3, Case 1b)
a= 7.00 (Table 6-2)
zg = 1200 (Table 6-2)
Kh = 0.70 (Kh = Kz evaluated at z = h)
I= 0.87 (Table 6-1) (Importance factor)
Wind Pressure
Velocity Pressure: qz = 0.00256*Kz*Kzt*Kd*V^2*I (Sect. 6.5.10, Eq. 6-15)
qh = 13.26 psf qh = 0.00256*Kh*Kzt*Kd*V^2*I (qz evaluated at z = h)
Design Net External Wind Pressures (Sect. [Link].2):
p = qh*[(GCpf) - (+/-GCpi)] (psf, Eq. 6-18)
Step 2
Design Net External Wind Pressures
p = qz*G*Cp - qi*(+/-GCpi) for windward wall (psf), where: qi =qh (Eq. 6-17, Sect. [Link].1)
p = qh*G*Cp - qi*(+/-GCpi) for leeward wall, sidewalls, and roof (psf), where: qi = qh (Sect. [Link].1)
