SAMPLE DESIGN CALCULATIONS
EXAMPLE C2. CALCULATE LATERAL LOADS (continued)
• Parallel to the ridge, where:
a. For windward walls,
b. For leeward walls,
,
c. For windward roof,
,
,
for 0 to 20 ft from
windward edge,
for 20 to 40 ft from windward edge
From Equation 27.3-1, use velocity pressure calculated at mean roof height, q
= q
= 26.0 lb/ft
