Question about the wind suction pressures for an enclosed balcony.

Question about the wind suction pressures for an enclosed balcony.

(OP)
Refer to the attached diagram.

I'm trying to justify using a lower pressure than the negative wall corner pressure so that I can make these anchors work. The balcony is enclosed on three sides by existing brick, and the exposed side has a 6" CMU guardrail. The balcony also has a roof over it.

Let me know if you have any questions, and thanks in advance.
