ASCE 7-10 Figure 30.6-1

ASCE 7-10 Figure 30.6-1

ASCE 7-10 Figure 30.6-1

(OP)
h = 60.5ft. roof slope = 9:12 (36.87 deg), monoslope. What figure would you use? The angle is too steep for this Figure (30.6-1) and for Figure 30.4-5B (slope <= 30 deg and h <= 60ft). Any advice for getting GCp values?

RE: ASCE 7-10 Figure 30.6-1

I think per Table 30.6-1, footnote 6, you would use the max. Exposure for the whole site (per 26.7.4.4) and then use 30.4-2C for the roof pressures - all using qh.
