Synopsis

This completely revised book provides guidance in the use of the wind load provisions set forth in ASCE Standard 7-95 (Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures.) It gives a brief review of the background material which forms the basis for the Standard's provisions, and discusses the format and parameters of the analytical procedures used to determine wind loads. Contains six example problems, worked out in detail, which can provide direction to practicing professionals in assessing wind loads on a variety of buildings and other structures. Errata and clarifications from the previous guide are also discussed.
