Looking for a spreadsheet to calculate wind load on freestanding wall per ASCE7.
Thanks
 
Which ASCE 7? 1995, 1998, 2002, 2005 or 2010. There are also many older version as well.

2010 .. thanks
 
There is an ASCE 7 - 10 spreadsheet available on the steeltools.org website ( sponsored by AISC ) by David Taylor. Is what you are analyzing a sign or a fence or is it a very thin building? I don't know if his spreadsheet specifically address your problem but it might provide help with the solution. There is always the ASCE 7/10 Minimum Design Loads Manual available from the ASCE. Are you looking for Main Wind Force Resisting System help or Components and Cladding assistance.
