Wind Load Calculation According To ASCE7-05/BNBC 2017








BNBC 2017 Wind Load Provision comes from ASCE 7-05

Reference ASCE 7-05 code link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zmgdxEY6wcfMj4fmu2daDlmXr5SJ14QX/view?usp=sharing

Example:
It is required to calculate the lateral wind loads acting on the 8-story building, considering the wind is acting first in the North-South direction. The building which is used as headquarter for police operation, is 30 m x 15 m in plan as shown in the figure (enclosed), and located right on the Gaza Beach (flat terrain).
Note: Use a basic wind speed of 100 Km/hr and  ASCE 7-05 Directional Procedure.


PLAN


                                                          



Elevation





Step 1: Building risk category:
Based on Table 1.5-1, the Building risk category is IV.

Step 2: Basic wind speed:
It is given as 100 km/hr.

Step 3: Building wind load parameters:
  •  Kd = 0.85 (wind directionality factored evaluated from Table 26.6.1)
  • Exposure category is D
  • Kzt =1.0 (Topographic factor for flat terrain)
  • Gust factor, G, is 0.85 for rigid buildings
  • Building is enclosed
  •  Internal pressure coefficient for enclosed buildings, 𝐺𝐶𝑝𝑖, is ± 0.18

Step 4: Velocity pressure coefficients,
Kh  =1.384  (Interpolating   from   Table   27.3-1)   and  Kz varies with height
















Step 6: External pressure coefficients, Cp :

For L / B = 15/30 = 0.5 and   using   Figure   27.4.1,   the   external   pressure coefficients are shown in the figure.
