WInd Loads for h < 60 ft
WInd Loads for h < 60 ft
(OP)
Dear everyone,
I have a building right now with L = 45', B = 30' & H = 55 ft.
Can i use the procedure stated in asce 7 for h < 60ft?.
Am i missing something.....
If the structure is flexible (where h<60 ft), how to include gust factor.
Thanks for your info on this.

If i am right, say this is applicable only in the direction
perpendicular to the least lateral dimension (which is less than eave's height). i.e
B = 30 ft, L = 80 ft & H = 55 ft.
In the direction perpendicular to "L" = 6.5.12.2.1 or 6.5.12.2.3
In the direction perpendicular to "B" = 6.5.12.2.2 or 6.5.12.2.3
The class 6.5.12.2.3 to be used irrespective of eave
height only if structure is flexible.
Thanks in advance
