Wind load calculation skill per ASCE 7 for MWFRS and components and cladding

Wind Load Calculator Skill

Purpose

The Wind Load Calculator Skill determines wind loads on structures per ASCE 7 for main wind force resisting systems (MWFRS) and components and cladding (C&C).

Capabilities

  • Basic wind speed determination
  • Exposure category classification
  • Wind pressure calculation (MWFRS and C&C)
  • Building envelope pressures
  • Open building wind loads
  • Tornado shelter design wind loads
  • Internal pressure determination
  • Directional and envelope procedures

Usage Guidelines

When to Use

  • Calculating design wind loads
  • Evaluating cladding pressures
  • Designing MWFRS members
  • Assessing open structure loads

Prerequisites

  • Building geometry defined
  • Site location established
  • Risk category determined
  • Enclosure classification identified

Best Practices

  • Verify exposure category
  • Consider topographic effects
  • Check internal pressure requirements
  • Document wind speed sources

Process Integration

This skill integrates with:

  • Structural Load Analysis
  • Bridge Design LRFD
