Enclosure Classification (26.2):

• Enclosed Building: A building that does not comply with the


requirements for open or partially enclosed buildings.
• Open Building: A building having each wall at least 80 percent open.
• Partially Enclosed Building: A building that complies with both of the
following conditions:
1. The total area of openings in a wall that receives positive external pressure exceeds
the sum of the areas of openings in the balance of the building envelope (walls and
roof) by more than 10 percent.

2. The total area of openings in a wall that receives positive external pressure exceeds
4ft2 or 1% of area of that wall, whichever is smaller, and the percentage of openings
in the balance of the building envelope does not exceed 20%.
Enclosed, Partially Enclosed, Open?
Open Building: A building having each wall at least 80 percent open.
Partially Enclosed Building: A building that complies with both of the conditions:
1. The total openings in a wall exceeds the sum of the areas of openings in the balance of the building
envelope by >10%.

2. The total area of openings in a wall that receives positive external pressure exceeds 4ft2 or 1% of
area of that wall, and the percentage of openings in the balance of the building envelope ≤ 20%.
Enclosed Building: A building that does not comply with the requirements
for open or partially enclosed buildings.

Topographic Effect
Topographic Effect
• Local abrupt topography affects wind near the ground.
– “Speed-up effect” due to fluid mechanics (incompressible flow/ incompatibility)
• Wind speed depends on shape
of hill, location of building, and
height above ground.
• Must meet all the criteria of ASCE
6.5.7.1. Many times the
topography does not qualify.

Reorganization
The wind load provisions of ASCE 7-05 (Chapter 6) have
been reorganized into 6 Chapters in ASCE 7-10.
ASCE 7-05: ASCE 7-10:
Reorganization
• CHAPTER 26:
Wind Loads: General Requirements
• CHAPTER 27:
Wind Loads On Buildings—MWFRS (Directional Procedure)
• CHAPTER 28:
Wind Loads On Buildings—MWFRS (Envelope Procedure)
• CHAPTER 29:
Wind Loads On Other Structures And Building
Appurtenances— MWFRS
• CHAPTER 30:
Wind Loads – Components And Cladding (C&C)
• CHAPTER 31:
Wind Tunnel Procedure
ADVANTAGES:

• Keeps section numbering


smaller….
 6.4.2.1.1 now 28.6.4

• Locates major subject areas as


distinct chapters.

• Orders the provisions in a


logical sequence.

25
Reorganization
 Each chapter contains tables that outline the design steps.
Hurricane Zone Changes
•New Hurricane Simulation Model
– Generally lower design wind speeds.
•Reintroduction of Exposure D in hurricane regions.
– Research shows that the roughness of ocean does not
continue to increase with increasing wind speed and
Exposure D is valid.
•New windborne debris region results
in less areas subject to windborne
debris requirements. 27
Chapter 26: General
Requirements

Section 26.5: Basic Wind Speeds

New wind speed maps with 2 major changes:


1. Maps provide wind speeds at strength design
level.
2. Maps are provided for different Risk
Categories instead of a single map with
importance factors to be applied.
Chapter 26: General
Requirements

Be careful during transition to ASCE 7-10 with respect to wind loads (strength)
and use of new/ old load combinations!

Question:
Resolution of the wind speed maps that are displayed in ASCE 7 are not sufficient to
determine a site specific wind speed. There are no reference city or town locations on
the ASCE 7 maps and while county boundaries are shown, the resolution is affected
when the maps are expanded large enough to distinguish the boundaries and
approximate the city locations.

Question:
If I have a product manufacturer’s evaluation report based on the unfactored wind
speeds from ASCE 7-05 (or earlier), how can I correlate to ASCE 7-10 values?
Answer:
Similar to the wind speed map changes from fastest-mile to 3-second gust, the
transition to strength level design maps will take some time and adjustment. To ease
transition, a table is provided in the Commentary to ASCE 7-10.
Chapter 26: General
Requirements
Question:
Part of the map are listed as a “Special Wind Region” on the Basic Wind Speed Maps.
How do I determine my wind pressures?
Answer:
Similar to current practice, the building department will have
to develop a basic wind speed for their jurisdiction. However,
they will now need to develop 3 winds speeds, dependent on
risk category and take into account the change to strength
level design forces for wind.

Question: What if I’m not in Exposure C?


Answer: Adjustment factor per 27.6-2.
Chapter 27, MWFRS Directional
Procedure, Part 2

Question: Is it possible to determine windward and leeward pressures rather than a total net pressure?

Answer: Footnote 4, Table 27.6-1…


“Distribution of tabulated net wall pressures between windward and leeward wall faces shall be based on the
linear distribution of total net pressure with building height as shown above and the leeward external wall
pressures assumed uniformly distributed over the leeward wall surface acting outward at 38% of ph for 0.2 ≤
L/B ≤ 1.0 and 27% of ph for 2.0 ≤ L/B ≤ 5.0. Linear interpolation shall be used for 1.0 < L/B < 2.0. The
remaining net pressure shall be applied to the windward walls as an external wall pressure acting towards the
wall surface. Windward and leeward wall pressures so determined do not include effect of internal pressure.”

Question: How do I account for increased MWFRS pressures on my parapets?


Answer: Figure 27.6-2… Surprisingly simple!

78
Chapter 27, MWFRS Directional
Procedure, Part 2

Question: What does this parapet pressure include? Windward and leeway parapets? Windward and
leeward surfaces?

Answer: Parapet net pressure accounts for pressures on windward and leeward surfaces of windward and
leeward walls.

=
Chapter 27, MWFRS Directional
Procedure, Part 2

Question: How do I account for net pressure distribution on sidewalls?

Answer: Footnote 2, Table 27.6-1…


“Side wall external pressures shall be uniform over the wall surface acting outward and shall be taken as 54%
of the tabulated ph pressure for 0.2 ≤ L/B ≤ 1.0 and 64% of the tabulated ph pressure for 2.0 ≤ L/B ≤ 5.0.
Linear interpolation shall apply for 1.0 < L/B < 2.0. Side wall external pressures do not include effect of
internal pressure.”

80
Chapter 27, MWFRS Directional
Procedure, Part 2

Combine net wall and roof pressures.

Pressures on the windward, leeward, and sidewalls and on roof and parapet
are applied simultaneously.
Chapter 27, MWFRS Directional
Procedure, Part 2

Question: Does this simplified method allow me to account for overhangs for MWFRS pressures?

Answer: Yes. Section 27.6.3…


“The effect of vertical wind loads on any roof overhangs shall be based on the application of a positive wind
pressure on the underside of the windward overhang equal to 75% of the roof edge pressure from Table 27.6-
2 for Zone 1 or Zone 3 as applicable. This pressure shall be applied to the windward roof overhang only and
shall be applied simultaneously with other tabulated wall and roof pressures as shown in Fig. 27.6-3.”
Chapter 27, MWFRS Directional
Procedure, Part 2

Question: If I use Chapter 27 Part 2 to calculate my wind pressures, do I need to consider torsion?

Answer: Yes. The MWFRSs in each direction need to be designed for the wind load cases defined in Figure
27.4-8.
The only exception: Torsional cases 2 and 4 do not need to be considered for buildings that meet with spatial distribution and stiffness of the MWFRSs
provided in new Appendix D.

Similar to MWFRS, we adjust the tabulated wind pressure for Exposure B


or D, as needed.
This term is called EAF (Exposure Adjustment Factor).
Chapter 30: C&C- Part 4
Question:
What tributary area is the tabulated value based on? Is there a way to adjust the
pressure for my actual tributary area?

Answer:
Pressures in Table 30.7-2
are based on an effective wind area of
10 ft2. Reductions in wind pressure for
larger effective wind areas may be
taken based on the reduction
multipliers (RF) shown in the table.

This term is called RF (Reduction


Factor).

Question: How do I determine C&C wind pressures on my parapets?
Answer: Section 30.7.1.2. Two cases to consider:

p1= Positive wall pressure for Zone 4 or 5 p3= Positive wall pressure for Zone 4 or 5
p2= Negative roof pressure for Zone 2 or 3 p4= Negative wall pressure for Zone 4 or 5

Part 6 Roof Overhangs
SOFFIT DESIGN:
•The hurricanes of 2004 provided fresh evidence of the importance of properly
designing soffits.
•Many buildings suffered minimal damage other than loss of the soffit material.
•However, due to wind and rain, there is often significant damage to the inside of the
building when soffits fail.
Chapter 30: C&C Part 6
Roof Overhangs
Question: What wind pressure should I use for design of a soffit under an eave?
In ASCE 7-05 the C&C GCp provided the total uplift on the overhang. It wasn’t
clear how to separate the top from the bottom surface pressure to properly
design a soffit.

 Research and analysis shows that the pressure on the underside of the roof
overhang is the same as the pressure on the adjacent wall.
Top Surface Pressure: Pressure
calculated using GCp for overhangs
minus the surface pressure calculated
below.

Bottom Surface Pressure:


Pressure calculated using GCp
for walls based on the effective
wind area of the soffit.
