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
