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
