I'm having a difficult time determining the G for a flexible structure. My results don't seemto make sense....if I were to use a G=2.0.....would this be conservative in any case?....any thoughts or comments would be appreciated.

It too conservative to use 2.0.Please send your e-mail id so that i can send the spread sheet to arrive at gust factor as per ASCE 7- 02.

Thanks
