CR-1 <br />CR-1 <br />Project; Four Corners - Bldg A <br />Description; Wall Wind Load <br />Components & Cladding Worksheet <br />References: ASCE 7-10 Section 30.5, 30.7 <br />Last Updated: September 2017 <br />Description: <br />The worksheet calculates C&C wind pressures from ASCE 7-10 Chapter 30, parts 2 and 4. It automatically <br />looks up tabulated values and applies adjustment factors based on data inputs, interpolating between <br />tabulated values where specifically allowed by the text. When interpolation is not specifically allowed, the <br />more conservative tabulated value is used. <br />Separate effective wind area inputs are used for calculating overhangs and parapets, versus roofs and <br />walls. <br />Notes: <br />Part 2 calculations are valid up to a 60' mean roof heightleave height. Eave height is used when roof slope <br />is less than 10°. Interpolation is performed between tabulated effective wind areas. Overhang pressures <br />are derived four tabulated values on page 347 of ASCE 7-10, not calculated via equation 30.10-1. <br />Part 4 calculations are presently valid only up to a 80' mean roof height. This is because the data tab <br />presently does not have tabulated values between 80' and 160', and can be increased to 160' by including <br />the additional tabulated values from Table 30.7-2. Alternatively, the values may be manually entered into <br />the calculation tables. <br />Interpolation is performed in Part 4 between tabulated height values for both the ptabl, references and the <br />exposure adjustment factor (EAF), when applicable. The data tab also includes derived values for 100 mph <br />wind speed, using the formula on page 323. Reduction Factor values were calculated by fitting a <br />logarithmic function to a series of data points taken from the reduction factor graph on page 324. The <br />equation matches the curve to approximately three decimal places, and is shown on the data tab for <br />reference. <br />Revision Notes: <br />Initial version. <br />Revision History: <br />8-Sep-17 Template created <br />Made By: SGT <br />Bldg A C&C - Wallxlsm - Cover Sheet DCG Last Saved Date: 20-Apr-2020 <br />
