UcfSE: I am working with the AASHTO '98 LRFD spec. in section 3.8.1.1. Trying to limit wind speed for a construction loading on a steel plate girder. The spec. says that ASCE 7-88 can be used for V30 or simply 100 mph.
I think that 100 mph is unduly conservative as it likely has never blown that fast in that part of Pennsylvania.
