WIND LOAD ANALYSIS (per NSCP 2015), Method for Buildings of All Heights
Wind Loads acting on main structural lateral system
Notation:
qz = velocity pressure evaluated at height z above ground, in (N/m 2)
qh = velocity pressure evaluated at height z = h, in (N/m 2)
pz = pressure that varies with height in accordance with the velocity pressure q z evaluated
at height z
ph = pressure that is uniform with respect to height as determined by the velocity pressure q h
evaluated at mean roof height h
I = importance factor (see NSCP 2015 table 208-1)
V = basic wind speed obtained from NSCP 2015 Fig. 207A.5-1A, B or C, in kph.
Gf = gust effect factor for main wind force resisting systems of flexible buildings and other
structures
Cp = external pressure coefficient to be used in the determination of wind loads for buildings
(see NSCP 2015 Figure 4-2)
Kz = velocity pressure exposure coefficient evaluated at height z (see NSCP 2015 Table 207B.3-1)
Kzt = topographic factor (in our case we will use 1.0 see NSCP 2015 sec. 207A.8.2 for further explanation)
Analysis:
pz = qz*Gf *Cp
qz = 0.613*Kz*Kzt*V2*I (ASCE 7-98 Eq. 6-1)
leeward
7.8 0.668 1 200 0.85 16379.4 0.85 0.5 7.0
6 0.62 1 200 0.85 15202.4 0.85 0.5 6.5
Side wall
7.8 0.668 1 200 0.85 16379.4 0.85 -0.7 -9.7
6 0.62 1 200 0.85 15202.4 0.95 -0.7 -10.1
Note: For the leeward force calculations the penthouse was analyzed separately producing
two separate pressure values. For all wind forces, Pz is assumed constant from mid-story below
to mid-story above each floor (or roof) level. Wind load for first half story above grade assumed
to be transferred from the exterior wall cladding system directly to foundation.
